The COVID-19 pandemic, and then the military aggression on the territory of Ukraine, had an extremely negative impact on the development of enterprises in all sectors of the state economy, personally affecting the air transport, which was forced to suspend its activities. The field of aviation services is traditionally characterized by the changing needs of customers, which causes a high degree of probability of dissatisfaction with the range and quality of aviation services provided by both domestic and international airlines. The dynamics of modern life and the business environment, the change in the ratio of work and free time increase the demand of the population for convenient and modern aviation services, putting increasingly high demands on the airlines that provide them to achieve competitive advantages. The main purpose of this study is to identify the place of personnel marketing in the airline's anti-crisis management system. Within the framework of this article, a study of the structural elements of the marketing complex of the enterprise in the field of service provision was carried out; the structural ratio of personnel categories in world civil aviation is determined; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the level of employment in world aviation is analysed; the dynamics of changes in personnel costs in global aviation under the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic are determined; the dynamics of changes in operating income and expenses for social needs of the airline "Ukraine International Airlines" under the influence of a number of crisis phenomena in the world and state economy are analysed. The methodological methods of the conducted research were the following methods: general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, logical and situational analysis and partial methods specific to economic sciences (subject-object approach, economic and statistical analysis, grouping, comparison and classification). According to the results of the research, the authors proposed an algorithm for the process of bringing the airline out of the crisis, which takes into account the prerequisites that affected the decline in the economic performance of aviation sector enterprises and focuses on the importance of introducing personnel marketing to the anti-crisis management system. The authors recommend applying the proposed model of using personnel marketing in the processes of anti-crisis management of an airline in order to include corporate culture in the system of anti-crisis management of an airline as an important tool that will contribute to the development of the intellectual capital of the company and the generation of new ideas. The results and recommendations of the study have practical value for Ukrainian airlines regarding the integration of personnel marketing into the anti-crisis management system
