Transport is an essential element of tourism, providing the vital link between the tourist generating areas and destinations. Good accessibility, which is determined by the transport services provided, is a fundamental condition for the development of any tourist destination. Moreover the transport industry can be a major beneficiary of tourism because of the additional passenger demand that may be generated. Aviation is an increasingly important mode of transport for tourism markets (Anne Graham, 2010)

During recent years airports have been changing their strategies and positioning in order to go forward to meet new market challenges, increasingly demanding and competitive. The market entry of low cost airlines resulted in changes in the structure of air traffic from various European airports, particularly those associated with an operation dictated by seasonal charter flights, in many cases in tourist destinations. Faro Airport is one such example, showing until mid-1990 a seasonal operation essentially based on charter flights (more than 80% of passengers). Since the entry of low cost airlines and due to the rapid rise in demand from passengers, the airport has seen a dramatic change in their traffic structure, with about 75% of passengers handled in 2010 by the low cost airlines
