Abstract

O alargamento do Aeroporto da Madeira em 2001 supunha-se catalisador da procura turística e capaz de reconverter o turismo madeirense e, assim, reforçar a dinâmica de desenvolvimento regional. Sete anos volvidos, importa avaliar os seus impactos, mormente no que respeita à criação de novas rotas turísticas e desenvolvimento da procura. Baseados em dados sobre fuxos de passageiros e procura turística, e recorrendo a um modelo econométrico simplificado, estimámos o impacto do alargamento em termos de procura e PIB. Os resultados mostram um crescimento moderado a partir de 2001, mas é de admitir que, sem ele, ter-se-ia assistido a um desempenho menos favorável. A metodologia proposta constitui, contudo, um ponto de partida na abordagem à problemática dos transportes em geral e da oferta de transporte aéreo no contexto do desenvolvimento regional em particular.
