    Mergers and acquisition (M&A) activities take place in the market actively, it started initially started in 1890, and since that time six waves have been identified. The thesis consists of an explanation of the theoretical background of M&A along with the principal of the activity and risk management. The center of focus is M&A in the aviation industry, concentrating on the WOW air and Icelandair event that occurred from 2018 to 2019. The mentioned years have been remarkable years for WOW air due to financial losses. To keep business and survive the company had attempted many solutions, and one of them was to merge with Icelandair. Since these two companies shared the most significant market share in the Keflavik International Airport, or over 70% of the total, if the two airlines had happened to merge it would have increased their market power among international carriers. Moreover, they would benefit from economies of scale and cost reductions, but due to them operating with different types of aircraft, it would have been difficult for the airlines to merge.
