In this paper a model, based on the nested multinomial logit model, is used to analyze airport competition and airline … competition in a multiple airport region. It is shown that if the frequency elasticity of demand is smaller than 1, airfare …-frequency and airport tax equilibria exist and are unique.Symmetric equilibria are derived analytically and their properties are …
