Historically, the aviation industry has been one of the most cyclical of all: when markets were buoyant, so too was the aviation industry.

International sporting events can have highly positive long-term effects on the cities which host them. A prime example can be seen in Salvador, Bahia on the northeast coast of Brazil. The former colonial town was one of the host cities for the 2014 world cup when it visited Brazil.
