  • Essays on Strategic Behavior in the U.S. Airline Industry
    Essays on Strategic Behavior in the U.S. Airline Industry Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kerria Measkhan Tan, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Economics The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Matthew Lewis, Advisor James Peck Huanxing Yang c Copyright by Kerria Measkhan Tan 2012 Abstract In my first dissertation essay, \Incumbent Response to Entry by Low-Cost Carri- ers in the U.S. Airline Industry," I analyze the price response of incumbents to entry by low-cost carriers in the U.S. airline industry. Previous theoretical papers suggest that airlines might respond to entry by lowering prices to compete harder for existing customers or they might increase prices to exploit their brand-loyal customers. This paper tests which effect is more prominent in the airline industry. I find that when one of four low-cost carriers enters a particular route, legacy carrier incumbents respond differently than low-cost carrier incumbents to new low-cost carrier entry. Legacy carriers decrease their mean airfare, 10th percentile airfare, and 90th percentile air- fare before and after entry by a low-cost carrier. However, low-cost carriers do not significantly alter their pricing strategy. The differing incumbent responses can be attributed to the finding that low-cost carrier entrants tend to match the price set by rival low-cost carriers in the quarter of entry and tend to enter with a lower price than that of legacy carrier incumbents. The results also suggest that entry does not affect price dispersion by incumbent carriers.
