Bei Störungen in einem Flugplan einer Fluggesellschaft werden je nach verfügbarer Zeit unterschiedliche Lösungsansätze angewendet. Aus dieser Problemstellung ergibt sich die Frage, wie ein reaktives Planungsverfahren für unterschiedliche Zielsetzungen in Abhängigkeit der Zeit aussehen...

Airline capacity utilization, or load factors, increased dramatically between 1993 and 2007, after staying fairly level for the first 15 years following deregulation. We argue that consumers’ adoption of the Internet, and their use of the Internet to investigate and purchase airline tickets,...

We use T-100 traffic data and DB1B fare data from the U.S. Department of Transportation to identify patterns and effects of entry by network carriers and low-cost carriers in non-stop U.S. airline markets. For the sample period from 1996 to 2009, we find that entry activity of low-cost carriers...

Proximity to plants makes it easier for headquarters to monitor and acquire information about plants. In this paper, I estimate the effects of headquarters' proximity to plants on plant investment and productivity. Using the introduction of new airline routes as a source of exogenous variation...

This paper presents a simple model of airline schedule competition that circumvents the complexities of the spatial approach used in earlier papers. Consumers choose between two duopoly carriers, each of which has evenly spaced flights, by comparing the combinations of fare and expected schedule...

We analyze the entry and exit activity in the European Airline Markets in the post-liberalisation period and study the differential traits between traditional and low cost carriers. Alongside with the characteristics traditionally highlighted as determinants of entry (such as airport presence...

The study analyses ground delays and air holding at Entebbe International Airport over five years. Daily probabilities for aircraft departure and arrival delays at are generated for each. The mean probabilities of delay for ground delays and air holding at 50% delay threshold levels are 0.94 and...

In this paper, we investigate the use of horizontal distribution alliances (HDAs) in the international airline industry. Airlines enter these alliances to effectively meet the needs of passengers in new and expanding markets. We apply transaction cost analysis (TCA) to develop a conceptual...

The paper investigates the consequences of code-sharing agreements among airline firms competing on international routes, where some passengers interconnect to flights originating or terminating at cities not served by foreign airlines. The authors calculate the precise market share captured by...

This paper provides empirical evidence showing the effect of airline cooperation on the level of interline fares paid by international passengers. The analysis focuses on two measures of cooperation, codesharing and antitrust immunity, and the results show their partial effects are both...

This paper provides a comprehensive economic analysis of scheduling decisions in an airline network. Although it is widely believed that the growth of hub-and-spoke networks has raised fight frequencies, the only analysis of this question is contained in a recent paper by Berechman and Shy...

This paper presents a simple model of airline schedule competition that circumvents the complexities of the spatial approach used in earlier papers. Consumers choose between two duopoly carriers, each of which has evenly spaced flights, by comparing the combinations of fare and expected schedule...
