The Passenger Experience of Air Travel: A Critical Approach

Taking a critical approach to the air passenger experience, this book considers the representations, embodied practices and materialities of air travel. It brings the journey to the fore as a complex and meaningful experience, filling a gap in the social science research of tourist behaviour, traditionally focused on the destination experience.
