contents This paper delves into the intricate relationship between the formation of air alliances and the shifts in airport and economic gravity centers across European countries during the period spanning 1990 to 2019. Employing descriptive analysis and the weighted mean center methodology, it explores the interplay between air passenger numbers and economic indicators, revealing a close and interdependent correlation between these factors. The study sheds light on the dynamic landscape of economic gravity centers, which experienced discernible shifts over time. However, it observes even more pronounced transitions in airport gravity centers. Statistical t-tests underscore significant differences in standard deviations when comparing pre- and post-air alliance periods for airport gravity centers. These disparities serve as a testament to the profound impact of airline alliances on the distribution of air traffic. These findings underscore the pivotal role of air alliances in reshaping the aviation landscape, and they beckon further investigation into their influence on broader economic transformations. Notably, this study pioneers the use of geographical means and standard deviations for rigorous statistical testing of economic hypotheses, signifying a significant contribution to the field.
