    Letisko Piešťany a rozvoj leteckej dopravy s ohľadom na charakter regiónu
    (University of Žilina, 2025) Kocúrik, Filip; Novák Sedláčková, Alena
    This article is primarily devoted to the topic of Piešťany Airport and the development of air transport in this region. Its aim is to propose new air connections from Piešťany Airport, which would lead to the development of air transport at this airport and to the regional development of its catchment area. It deals in detail with Piešťany airport and its catchment area, which is determined here. The article also highlights and describes in more detail the impact of air transport on the development of the region, specifying various levels of this impact. Some of the results of a questionnaire survey conducted by the author are presented and analysed. Based on these results, the article then provides a proposal for air connections that could be operated from Piešťany Airport in the future. The proposed connections could lead to the development of the region in which the airport is located and to an increase in the rate of use of air transport by its residents.

    Prínos nových medzinárodných dohôd o leteckej doprave
    (University of Žilina, 2025) Fábryová, Natália; Novák Sedláčková, Alena
    This paper focuses on the analysis of the current state of international air transport agreements between the European Union and third countries, specifically Ukraine, Armenia, Tunisia, and Qatar. The primary objective was to assess clauses related to environmental, social aspects and fair competition in the context of current legislation and applied rules. The methods of document analysis, comparison and synthesis were used, evaluating specific provisions of these agreements and their impact on the air transport market. Based on the conducted analysis, it was concluded that the new agreements significantly contribute to the sustainable development of air transport within the EU, support the protection of employee rights, and create conditions for fair competition. The thesis also presents proposals for potential expansion of contractual cooperation between the EU and other third countries, assessing the potential benefits of these steps for the Slovak air transport sector. The aim of the thesis was fulfilled, and the results highlight the growing importance of a comprehensive approach to negotiating international air transport agreements.

    Artificial intelligence and its use in air transport
    (University of Zilina, 2022) Bendík, Dávid; Novák, Andrej
    In recent years, modern technologies have found large applications in sectors such as engineering, healthcare, information technology, robotics, and so forth. One important field in the use of such modern technologies is the field of air transport, where the main objective of using these technologies is to facilitate work for people, make individual tasks more efficient and faster, or reduce the risks associated with human error. In this paper, we will look at artificial intelligence and its use in aviation. Despite the rapid pace of improvement, artificial intelligence is still finding its way to reach its full potential. The history of artificial intelligence dates back to ancient times when many philosophers wondered whether a machine could think. The answer is found in the second half of the 20th century, when, besides theoretical knowledge, we can also observe the first intelligent machines. There is no clear and single correct definition for artificial intelligence, so the subject of the next section is to define artificial intelligence from different sources. The following section details the difference between deep learning and machine learning, comparing their main differences and applications in aviation. The analysis of the current state of application of artificial intelligence in aviation represents the core part of this paper. The emphasis in the analysis is put mainly on applications in the field of airports, air traffic management and safety. In each of these areas, the benefits of using AI are evaluated based on already established AI-enabled technologies. Finally, by analysing the sources available and those applied in our work with the use of a mathematical model, we assess how important the role artificial intelligence currently plays in air transport.

    Regulatory framework for civil aviation between the EU and the UK after Brexit
    (University of Zilina, 2021) Vereš, Maroš; Tomová, Anna
    This paper deals with the topic of Brexit, and its objective is a complex description of the new regulatory framework of civil air transport in United Kingdom. The methods like description, analysis and synpaper were applied on extensive and diverse sources of information, e.g. case laws, regulations, studies or expert articles. The paper introduces a comprehensive set of facts that clarify the act of withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union. The explanation of the new regulatory framework of civil air transport for the United Kingdom, and its impact on the United Kingdom and the European Union, brings contribution to the students of Department of Air Transport. The significance of the work is mainly in the timeliness of the topic, that could subsequently be used as an educational material in the field of air transport within the international economic relations.
