Internalization of airport congestion : a network analysis

Brueckner, Jan K. - 2002

The likely resurgence of air traffic in the U.S. means that airport congestion is a problem that must soon be … theory says that the congestion tolls levied on the various airlines at a particular airport should generally be different …, with the tolls being inversely related to a carrier s airport flight share. Internalization of airport congestion is the …

Survey non-response and unemployment duration

Berg, Gerard J. van den (contributor); … - 2004 - [Elektronische Ressource]

Social surveys are often used to estimate unemployment duration distributions. Survey nonresponse may then cause a bias. We study this using a unique dataset that combines survey information of individual workers with administrative records of the same workers. The latter provide information on...

Match bias from earnings imputation in the current population survey : the case of imperfect matching

Bollinger, Christopher R. (contributor); … - 2005

This paper examines alternative forms of match bias arising from earnings imputation. Wage equation parameters are estimated based on mixed samples of workers who do and do not report earnings, the latter group being assigned earnings of donors who share some but not all the attributes of the...

Non-response biases in surveys of school children : the case of the English PISA samples

Micklewright, John; Schnepf, Sylke V.; Skinner, … - 2010

We analyse response patterns to an important survey of school children, exploiting rich auxiliary information on respondents' and non-respondents' cognitive ability that is correlated both with response and the learning achievement that the survey aims to measure. The survey is the Programme for...

Airline schedule buffers and flight delays : a discrete model

Brueckner, Jan K.; Czerny, Achim Ingo; Gaggero, Alberto A. - 2020 - Version of August, 2020

This paper revisits the airline schedule-buffer choice problem analyzed by Brueckner, Czerny and Gaggero (2020) using a simpler model where the random shocks influencing flight times are discrete rather than continuous. The analysis yields closed-form solutions for the flight and ground buffers...

Airline mitigation of propagated delays : theory and empirics on the choice of schedule buffers

Brueckner, Jan K.; Czerny, Achim Ingo; Gaggero, Alberto A. - 2019

This paper presents an extensive theoretical and empirical analysis of the choice of schedule buffers by airlines. With airline delays a continuing problem around the world, such an undertaking is valuable, and its lessons extend to other passenger transportation sectors. One useful lesson from...

Coordinated capacity reductions and public communication in the airline industry

Aryal, Gaurab; Ciliberto, Federico; Leyden, Benjamin T. - 2020

We investigate whether legacy U.S. airlines communicated via earnings calls to coordinate with other legacy airlines in offering fewer seats on competitive routes. To this end, we first use text analytics to build a novel dataset on communication among airlines about their capacity choices....

Airline delay propagation : a simple method for measuring its extent and determinants

Brueckner, Jan K.; Czerny, Achim Ingo; Gaggero, Alberto A. - 2021

This paper offers a simple approach for identifying propagated departure delays and measuring their contribution to arrival delays. Under our approach, a propagated departure delay occurs when the arrival delay of the inbound flight exceeds the subsequent flight's ground buffer. The size (or...

Airline fuel usage and carbon emissions : determining factors

Brueckner, Jan K.; Abreu, Chrystyane - 2016

Using annual data on individual US airlines over the 1995-2015 period, this paper presents regression results relating an airline's total fuel usage to seven variables: the available ton miles of capacity (passengers plus freight and mail) provided by the airline; the average seat capacity of its...
