It is both, such that the airline industry has often been described as many industries rolled into one.

From the moment a passenger or a shipper conceives of flying or sending shipment through an airline up to arrival at destination and claims his baggage or a shipment is delivered to the consignee, a stream of concrete goods and services are unleashed that could last days or weeks.
