    FLIGHT TRANSPORTATION LABORATORY REPORT R87-7 AIR TRAVEL DEMAND AND AIRLINE SEAT INVENTORY MANAGEMENT PETER PAUL BELOBABA Air Travel Demand and Airline Seat Inventory Management by Peter Paul Belobaba Flight Transportation Laboratory Massachusetts Institute of Technology May 1, 1987 ABSTRACT Many airlines practice differential pricing of fare products that share a common inventory of available seats on an aircraft. Seat inventory management is the process of limiting the number of seats made available to each fare class. The objective of both strategies is to maximize the total revenues generated by the mix of fare products sold for a flight. This dissertation first examines the evolution of airline marketing and seat in- ventory management practices. A demand segmentation model is developed to help explain current airline fare structures. A conceptual model of the consumer choice process for air travel is then presented, and extended to describe the airline reserva- tions process and the probabilistic elements that can affect seat inventory control. A survey of current airline practice in this area revealed that seat inventory control is an ad-hoc process which depends heavily on human judgement. Past work on quantitative approaches has focused on large-scale optimization models that solve simple representations of the problem. A primary objective of this research was the development of a quantitative approach based on the practical constraints faced by airlines. The Expected Marginal Seat Revenue (EMSR) model developed in this thesis is a decision framework for maximizing flight leg revenues which can be applied to multiple nested fare class inventories. It is applied to a dynamic process of booking limit revision for future flight departures, and overbooking factors as well as fare class upgrade probabilities are incorporated.

  • Dynamic Airline Pricing and Seat Availability
    DYNAMIC AIRLINE PRICING AND SEAT AVAILABILITY By Kevin R. Williams August 2017 Revised May 2020 COWLES FOUNDATION DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 2103R COWLES FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH IN ECONOMICS YALE UNIVERSITY Box 208281 New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8281 http://cowles.yale.edu/ DYNAMIC AIRLINE PRICING AND SEAT AVAILABILITY Kevin R. Williams Yale School of Management and NBER∗ May 2020y Abstract Airfares fluctuate over time due to both demand shocks and intertemporal varia- tion in willingness to pay. I develop and estimate a model of dynamic airline pricing accounting for both forces with new flight-level data. With the model estimates, I dis- entangle key interactions between the arrival pattern of consumer types and scarcity of remaining capacity due to stochastic demand. I show that dynamic airline pricing expands output by lowering fares charged to early-arriving, price-sensitive customers. It also ensures seats for late-arriving travelers with the highest willingness to pay (e.g. business travelers) who are then charged high prices. I find that dynamic airline pricing increases total welfare relative to a more restrictive pricing regime. Finally, I show that abstracting from stochastic demand results in incorrect inferences regarding the extent to which airlines utilize intertemporal price discrimination.

  • Guide: Air Travelers with Developmental Disabilities
    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, DC Guide: Air Travelers with Developmental Disabilities This document is a guide to the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) and its implementing regulations, 14 CFR Part 382 (Part 382), with respect to passengers with developmental disabilities. It serves as a brief but authoritative source of information for passengers with developmental disabilities as well as airlines about the services, facilities, and accommodations required by the ACAA and the provisions of Part 382. The primary purpose of the document is to help passengers with developmental disabilities understand their legal rights under the ACAA and Part 382, as well as to provide information to them on how best to prepare for air travel in order to ensure a smooth and comfortable trip. A second purpose of this document is to offer airline employees and contractors information about the airlines’ legal responsibilities to accommodate passengers with developmental disabilities. The document does not expand airlines’ legal obligations or establish new requirements under the law. It contains information about existing requirements and suggested practices and procedures for airlines to use to appropriately interact with and respond to the needs of passengers with different types of developmental disabilities. Air Travel Tips for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities Who is entitled to protections under the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA)? • The ACAA and the Department’s disability regulation, 14 CFR Part 382, protect individuals with disabilities in air travel. An “individual with a disability” means any individual who has a physical or mental impairment that, on a permanent or temporary basis, substantially limits one or more major life activities, has a record of such an impairment, or is regarded as having such an impairment.

  • The Role of Strategic Airline Alliances in Africa
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive The role of strategic airline alliances in Africa Button, Kenneth and Porta, Flavio and Scotti, Davide Schar School of Policy and Government, George Mason University, University of Bergamo, University of Bergamo 2020 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/108265/ MPRA Paper No. 108265, posted 16 Jun 2021 10:11 UTC THE ROLE OF STRATEGIC AIRLINE ALLIANCES IN AFRICA KENNETH BUTTON, FLAVIO PORTA AND DAVIDE SCOTTI* Abstract This paper looks at the impacts of strategic airline alliances on African aviation. Globally, there has been an on-going trend towards airlines coordinating their activities via strategic alliances and joint ventures. These alliances affect market competition including the quality and costs of the services provided. Despite the economic benefits found in prior analyses of alliances in other markets there has been very limited study of alliance participation by African airlines. Our analysis suggests, among other things, that membership of one of the three global alliances could benefit African airlines, add to their passenger flows, and enhance regional economic integration. Key words: Africa’s strategic air alliances; airline economics; airline cooperation; airline networks JEL Listing: K21, L93, N37, R4 INTRODUCTION The United Nations forecasts that the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic will reduce global international air passengers by between 2.63 and 2.91 billion passengers from 2019 levels, with a fall of 92% in seat capacity in the second quarter of the year, including a 94% decline in Africa.1 The longer-term implications are more uncertain. Although it seems likely that Covid will change airlines, it is unlikely to change fundamental airline economics.

  • CO2 EMISSIONS from COMMERCIAL AVIATION: 2013, 2018, and 2019 Down from Nearly 19% in 2013
    OCTOBER 2020 CO2 EMISSIONS FROM COMMERCIAL AVIATION 2013, 2018, AND 2019 BRANDON GRAVER, PH.D., DAN RUTHERFORD, PH.D., AND SOLA ZHENG ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors thank Jennifer Callahan and Dale Hall (ICCT), Tim Johnson (Aviation Environment Federation), and Andrew Murphy (Transport & Environment) for their review. This work was conducted with generous support from the Aspen Global Change Institute. SUPPLEMENTAL DATA Additional country-specific operations and CO2 emissions data for 2013, 2018, and 2019 can be found on the ICCT website. International Council on Clean Transportation 1500 K Street NW, Suite 650, Washington, DC 20005 [email protected] | www.theicct.org | @TheICCT © 2020 International Council on Clean Transportation EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Last year, the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) developed a bottom-up, global aviation inventory to better understand carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from commercial aviation in 2018. This report updates the operations and emissions analyses for calendar year 2018 based on improved source data, and includes new analyses for 2013 and 2019. In 2013, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) requested its technical experts develop a global CO2 emissions standard for aircraft, and states began to submit voluntary action plans to reduce CO2 emissions from aviation. This paper details a global, transparent, and geographically allocated CO2 inventory for three years of commercial aviation, using operations data from OAG Aviation Worldwide Limited, ICAO, individual airlines, and the Piano aircraft emissions modeling software. Our Global Aviation Carbon Assessment (GACA) model estimated CO2 emissions from global passenger and cargo operations on par with totals reported by industry (Figure ES-1). In all three analyzed years, passenger flights were responsible for approximately 85% of commercial aviation CO2 emissions.
