  • The Impacts of Liberalization on Competition on an Air Shuttle Market
    The Impacts of Liberalization on Competition on an Air Shuttle Market Alessandro V. M. Oliveira§ Abstract This paper aims at assessing the impacts of deregulation on the most important airline market in Brazil: the air shuttle Rio de Janeiro – São Paulo. By making use of both a two-stages budgeting representation of the demand system, and a competition model with product heterogeneity among rivals, and based on the framework of the New Empirical Industrial Organization (NEIO), it was possible to infer whether a structural change on airlines' conduct parameters due to liberalization was observed. This exercise ultimately served as a test of the efficacy of the policy employed by the regulators since 1998. The main conclusions were that regulatory reform effectively stimulated firms to significantly increase the degree of competition in the market (via a decrease in market power), and that marginal-cost or even below-marginal-cost pricing was not rejected for some airlines. JEL: L13 – L50 – L93 Key words: deregulation – market power – conduct – airline Note: Paper competing to the Young Economist Award. § Center for Studies of Airline Competition and Regulation (NECTAR) - Instituto Tecnológico de Aeronáutica, Brazil. E-mail address: [email protected] 1. Introduction This paper aims at developing an empirical model for assessing the impacts of economic liberalization on competition in a relevant subset of the Brazilian airline industry: the air shuttle service on the route Rio de Janeiro - São Paulo. In this market the first air shuttle in the world, the ‘Ponte Aérea’, was created in 1959, by an agreement of airline managers, and had a dominant position in the airport-pair linking both city centers for almost forty years.

  • General Meeting of Deutsche Lufthansa Ag – Speech by the Chairman of the Executive Board and Ceo Carsten Spohr
    Speech GENERAL MEETING OF DEUTSCHE LUFTHANSA AG – SPEECH BY THE CHAIRMAN OF THE EXECUTIVE BOARD AND CEO CARSTEN SPOHR 4 May 2021, virtual Lufthansa Aviation Center, Frankfurt To be checked against delivery. SPEECH: General Meeting of Deutsche Lufthansa AG – Speech by the Chairman of the Executive Board and CEO Carsten Spohr Dear Shareholders, I also welcome you to the Annual General Meeting of Deutsche Lufthansa AG. Unfortunately, for the third time only virtually, from our Group headquarters, the Lufthansa Aviation Center in Frankfurt. I speak for the entire Lufthansa Executive Board when I say that we would really have liked to welcome you in person today. But it was not yet to be. You saw it earlier in the short video clip: behind us is a year that was historic in many respects. A year in which we had to bear a record loss of 5.5 billion euros. A year in which we lost two-thirds of our revenue and as many as three-quarters of our passengers, and a year in which we had to reduce the size of our workforce by one-fifth. But after this historic and unprecedented year, one thing is also certain: the Lufthansa Group will not only get through this crisis. We are using this crisis to become better. Following the three most successful years in our history, we entered this crisis through no fault of our own. We were stronger than ever, as one of the top five airline groups worldwide, profitable and solidly financed, with successful brands operating out of the economically strongest home markets in Europe and not to mention the best employees in the industry.

  • A Competition Model for a Brazilian Air Shuttle Market
    A COMPETITION MODEL FOR A BRAZILIAN AIR SHUTTLE MARKET Alessandro Oliveira§ ABSTRACT This paper aims at developing a competition model for a relevant subset of the Brazilian airline industry: the air shuttle market on the route Rio de Janeiro – São Paulo, a pioneer service created in 1959. The competition model presented here contains elements of both vertical product differentiation and representative consumer. I also use the conduct parameter approach to infer about the behaviour of airlines in the market under three situations: a quasi- deregulation process (from 1998 on), two price war events (1998 and 2001), and a shock in costs due to currency devaluation (1999). Results permitted making inference on the impacts of liberalisation on competition and investigating an alleged collusive behaviour of 1999. Key words: air shuttle – competition – deregulation – product differentiation JEL Classification: L93 § Department of Economics, University of Warwick – UK. Email: [email protected] 1. INTRODUCTION This paper aims at developing a competition model for a relevant subset of the Brazilian airline industry: the air shuttle service on the route Rio de Janeiro - São Paulo. This market was where the first air shuttle in the world, the ‘Ponte Aérea’, was created, in 1959, by an agreement of airline managers, and which dominated the airport-pair linking the city centres of the cities for almost forty years. Air shuttles are usually characterised by frequent service, walk-on flights with no reservations and short-haul markets. This concepts is nowadays very common in the airline industry, usually providing service for highly time-sensitive passengers, with notorious examples being the Eastern Airlines’ Boston-New York-Washington and the Iberia’s Madrid-Barcelona.
