Abstract:

The author summarizes the workshop presentations on present aviation forecasting methodologies. Discussion following the presentations is also summarized. The three themes which emerged from the discussion are as follows: (1) Financial objectives are driving the industry to spend considerable effort on short-term forecasts and methods; (2) There is a continuing shift to less sophisticated forecasting models and approaches; and (3) The use of scenarios, judgment, and market segmentation analysis can help deal with the considerable uncertainties of aviation forecasting.
