Three essays on demand and cost in the United States domestic airline industry

Abstract

dc:description

"Previous research on airline demand has recognized the existence of at least two customer types, business passengers with high valuations of time and low price elasticity, and tourists having low valuations of time and high price elasticity. Attempts to differentiate between these two groups have generally been based on assumptions about the range of fares paid by each group or the classification of specific routes into ""tourist"" and ""business""."
