Abstract

The objective of this research paper is to analyze how the rise of numerous terrorist attacks in France have affected France’s tourism industry, specifically how it has affected France’s national airline company Air France. This paper will describe France’s tourism industry as a background to provide context for its current state. The change in the industry’s success will be highlight by a timeline of the recent terrorist attacks and how the country has been affected. Furthermore, Air France’s current success after the attacks will be examined in comparison to how they were succeeding before the terrorist attacks. Finally, Air France’s ability to respond to the effects of the attacks and a future projection is compared to the American airline company US Airways after 9/11.
