  • Improved technology

  • Increased demand

  • Shut it down

  • None

Answer

The advent of World War I brought a significant disruption to the fledgling airline industry. Faced with the pressing demands of war, governments around the world diverted resources, manpower, and materials towards the war effort, leading to a severe curtailment of civilian aviation activities. As a result, many airlines were forced to suspend or significantly reduce their operations, essentially putting the industry on hold until the war's end.
