Abstract:

Some of the policy questions that arise as a result of deregulation of the airline industry are examined. A national intercity travel demand model that is different in many respects from the conventional aggregate or disaggregate models is presented. The model uses travel distance as a variable of interest, calibrated on nonsurvey industrial data. The model is consistent with the neoclassical theory of consumer behavior and users a representative consumer concept. It answers many transportation-related policy questions, such as questions about the impact of air-fare reductions and the impact of the introduction of faster aircraft on the intercity market shares of public transportation.
