<title>Abstract</title> This paper aims to provide new measures of airline network configuration with a view to analyse effectively the complexity of modern carriers’ network design. It studies network configurations in the airline sector by taking into account both spatial and temporal dimensions. The...

The paper identifies conditions under which asymmetric equilibria may exist when carriers compete in designing their network configurations in a game-theoretical framework. Two carriers are assumed here, which are allowed to play three different strategies: point-to-point (PP), hub-and-spoke...
