  • Idaho Air Services Study
    Idaho Air Passenger Demand Study Introduction Introduction to the Report Commercial airline service is very important to Idaho’s economy. Not only do businesses located in the State rely on the commercial airline industry to support day-to-day activities, but Idaho’s tourist industry is heavily reliant on commercial airline service. There is no national standard for what constitutes good or even acceptable airline service; such standards vary considerably by community. However, convenient access to the national air transportation system is a top priority for many businesses and tourists across the U.S. It is important that Idaho’s major population, business, and tourism centers have commercial airline service to meet their needs. All areas in Idaho have some inherent need or demand for commercial airline service. The volume of this demand is determined by factors such as population, employment, income, and tourism. Where each community’s demand for commercial airline service is actually served is a more complex equation. In the deregulated airline environment, it is not uncommon to find travelers who leave the market area of their local commercial service airport to drive two to three hours to a more distant, larger competing airport. The airport that travelers choose for their commercial airline trips is influenced by a myriad of factors. With the help of the Internet, which is rapidly becoming the number one method for airline ticket purchases, travelers can compare fares, airlines, and schedules among several competing airports. With airline deregulation, some travelers from smaller commercial airport markets around the U.S. have abandoned air travel from their local airport in favor of beginning their trips from larger, more distant airports.

  • The Value of Relational Adaptation in Outsourcing: Evidence from The
    The Value of Relational Adaptation in Outsourcing: Evidence from the 2008 shock to the US Airline Industry * Ricard Gil Myongjin Kim Giorgio Zanarone Johns Hopkins U University of Oklahoma CUNEF February 2017 Abstract In this paper, we theoretically analyze, and empirically test for, the importance of relational adaptation in outsourcing relationships using the airline industry as case study. In the airline industry, adaptation of flight schedules is necessary in the presence of bad weather conditions. When major carriers outsource to independent regionals, conflicts over these adaptation decisions typically arise. Moreover, the urgency of needed adjustments requires that adaptation be informal and hence enforced relationally. Our model shows that for relational adaptation to be self-enforcing, the long-term value of the relationship between a major and a regional airline must be at least as large as the regional airline’s cost of adapting flight schedules across joint routes. Thus, when facing a negative economic shock, the major is more likely to preserve routes outsourced to regional airlines that have higher adaptation costs, and hence higher relationship value. We analyze the evolution of U.S. airline networks around the 2008 financial crisis, and we find that consistent with our predictions, routes outsourced to regional networks with worse average weather, and hence higher adaptation costs, were more likely to survive the shock. Keywords: Relational contracting, adaptation, airlines, outsourcing JEL codes: L14, L22, L24, L93 *

    DETROIT METROPOLITAN WAYNE COUNTY AIRPORT FAR PART 150 NOISE COMPATIBILITY STUDY UPDATE CHAPTERINVENTORY A Inventory Introduction Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is an integral component of the transportation infrastructure serving the Detroit Metropolitan area, southeast Michigan, and northwest Ohio. Because of its airfield and facility capabilities, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport is also a vital part of the national system of airports. The Airport serves as not only the City of Detroit’s front door by providing visitors with an important first impression of the community, but also is the state's largest airport. The Airport provides transportation facilities that are an absolute necessity for some businesses, and a "required" convenience for others. Additionally, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport provides recreational and leisure traveler’s convenient access to air transportation with convenient non-stop and connecting service to many popular destinations. This Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 150 Noise Compatibility Planning Study is an update of a 1992 Study that was adopted by Wayne County and approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in 1993. The Wayne County Airport Authority has implemented many of the recommendations contained in the previous FAR Part 150 Study. However, since completion of the previous study, there have been changes to the airfield, type of aircraft, and the number of aircraft operating at the airport. As such, many of these changes have likely resulted in changes to noise exposure and therefore the need for an update to the previous Study. The purpose of this airport facilities INVENTORY chapter of the Part 150 Study is to establish a baseline of information about existing airport facilities and operations, as well as local land use.

  • PSA Airlines CASE STUDY
    PSA Airlines CASE STUDY PSA Airlines PSA Airlines’ headquarters was originally estab- lished in Dayton in 1985 while it was under the ownership of Piedmont Airlines. Dayton remains headquarters to PSA Airlines, now a wholly owned subsidiary of US Airways, that merged with American Airlines in 2013. The airline operates an all-jet fleet and is considered the fastest- growing regional carrier under the American Eagle brand with nearly 3,000 employees operating nearly 700 daily flights to nearly 90 destinations. Since 2014, PSA has doubled its size and, by 2016, operated 150 Bombardier CRJ 900 aircraft. As a result of this growth, PSA has expanded its Dayton-based facilities, including a new maintenance hangar that opened in October of 2016. The new, 77,000 square foot hangar is adjacent to PSA’s existing 40,000 square foot operations control center and 6,500 professional learning center located at the Dayton International Airport and is the airline’s largest aircraft maintenance support facility. Dion Flannery, PSA President, stated that the new hanger is…“a testament to our growth, it’s an important infrastructure for us that’s going to last the rest of our days here.” How the City of Dayton (City) and its local partner, Montgomery County Economic Development Services (MCDS) helped PSA Airlines achieve speed-to-market, lower costs, and reduce risk: SPEED TO MARKET: In 2014, when PSA was planning to receive 30 new Bombardier CRJ 900 aircraft, the airline needed maintenance facilities for the new aircraft. The City of Dayton presented a schedule that met PSA’s and its parent company’s schedule through a 20-year lease customized to PSA’s needs.
