In the paper a nested logit model is used to describe passenger preferencesconcerning airports and airlines. A statistical model for the passengers'sequential choice of airport and airline is calibrated. It appears that thechoice sequence first airport, then airline is statistically preferable...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has become an established approach for analyzing and comparing efficiency results of corporate organizations or economic agents. It has also found wide application in comparative studies on airport efficiency. The standard DEA approach to comparative airport...

To keep load factors high while offering high frequency service, airlines tend to reduce the size of the aircraft they use. At many of the world’s largest airports there are fewer than 100 passengers per air transport movement, although congestion and delays are growing. Furthermore, demand...

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...

We analyze the phenomenon of hub dominance by developing a model relating faresto distance, using the mainleg of intercontinental flights for scaling purposes. Our results indicate thatat least some of the major Europeancarriers place a mark up on flights originating from or going to their hubs.
