Abstract
The privatization and commercialization of airports has moved forward at the globa1 level. individual countries have begun to focus less on the public welfare aspect of airports, and to emphasize the need to uncover means of increasing their respective airports economic performance and profitability. Although there is a need for Korean airports to be managed in accordance with this global trend. In order to conduct an accurate comparison and analysis of the managerial performances of the fourteen airports, the WLU(Work Load Unit) a concept which integrates the two outputs of airports, namely, passengers and freight, was employed in this study. Furthermore, in order to overcome the limitations of conducting a financial comparison based solely on WLU, the DEA model was also employed to evaluate airport efficiency: moreover, the benchmarking method was used to establish the input-output goals.
