The following are the disadvantages: 1. High Costs: Air transport is a costly service. Its operational costs are too high. Middle class and poor people can not affect its cash. 2. More Risks: Air transport is prone to accidents. A small mistake can be very dangerous for passengers. Hijacking of planes is easily possible. 3. Huge Investments: For creating aviation facilities, huge investments are required. The cost of aero planes, construction and maintenance of aerodromes and control mechanism needs a capital expenditure.
