Abstract. The authors deal with the role, tasks and functions of marketing activities for air transport companies.

The system of their marketing activities management is aimed at adapting to the rapidly growing unstable environment and includes principles of market innovation and planning. It is established that the main focus of marketing activity of air transport enterprises is focus on the marketing product line to the airlines, which is a group of basic and additional services, staff, elements of the environment, the benefits and advantages that are closely interrelated and meet the needs of a target market segment used together and in the same price range. Understanding the nature of the airline product line is proposed.
