University of the Aegean Shipping, Trade and Transport Department University of the Aegean Shipping, Trade and Transport Department Georgia Tsitsou “High-speed rail and air transport competition: The case of Athens – Thessaloniki” 16/10/2019 Research Dissertation for the Master Program “Shipping, Trade and Transport Department – ΝΑΜΕ” Author: Georgia Tsitsou Supervisor: Seraphim Kapros Chios 1 Abstract This research dissertation analyses the potential of the high speed train to compete with the airline market. The context proposed is hypothetical, given that the high speed train alternative is not yet available on the route subject to research. In order to model passenger preferences relative to the characteristics of the alternatives, experimental design techniques are applied, which allow for the design of the market that will be evaluated by current airline passengers. Based upon the information collected, modal choices are analysed, estimating a logit model with both alternatives. Demand modelling allows us to predict the substitutability level of the high speed train in comparison with the plane for the city pair Athens – Thessaloniki and in reverse, for different types of traveler. The results obtained confirm that the high speed train will have an important impact on the airline market. The simulation of different policies related to service variables stresses the fact that this impact will mainly depend on the relation gender – price, age – time, occupancy – accuracy/ reliability and reasons for travelling – accuracy/ reliability. In contrast, in the city pair Thessaloniki – Athens, there is statistically significant correlation between gender and fewer stops or better connections and reason for travelling and price. Suggestions that were provided at the final part of the dissertation concentrate on gaining a better overview of passengers’ preference for each mode of transport and needs by conducting a respective research in train platforms. The list of recommendations covers all aspects that caused passengers’ dissatisfaction on facility services. Keywords: High speed rail, Airplane, Passenger preference 2 CONTENTS Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION .................................................................................................... 6 1.1 Goal of this dissertation ................................................................................................... 6 1.2 Structure of this Paper ..................................................................................................... 6 1.3 Methodology ................................................................................................................... 6 Chapter 2 CURRENT SITUATION OF COMPETITION FOR TRANSPORT MODES IN GREECE ................................................................................................................................... 8 2.1 Air transport background ................................................................................................. 8 2.1.1 Air transport in Greece ........................................................................................... 10 2.2 High speed rail background ........................................................................................... 12 2.2.1 High speed rail in Greece ....................................................................................... 13 Chapter 3 LITERATURE REVIEW ....................................................................................... 15 3.1 Modal Competition ........................................................................................................ 15 3.2 Modelling approach and data sources ........................................................................... 18 3.2.1 The usefulness of a questionnaire survey ............................................................... 18 3.2.2 Questionnaire survey design ................................................................................... 19 3.2.3 Sample selection and description ........................................................................... 20 3.3 Definition of Customer’s satisfaction ............................................................................ 21 3.4 Key elements that affect customers’ satisfaction .......................................................... 22 Chapter 4 FIELD RESEARCH AND ELABORATION OF RESULTS ................................ 23 4.1 Ethics ............................................................................................................................. 23 4.2 Results analysis ............................................................................................................. 24 4.2.1 City pair Athens -

Konstantinos Malagas1, Alexandra Fragoudaki2, Kyriakos Kourousis3, Nikitas Nikitakos1 ABSTRACT: The air transport industry in Greece has been experiencing a significant growth. However, higher education INTRODUCTION has missed so far this export opportunity. Public universities AVIATION INDUSTRY: THE GENERAL CONTEXT and technological educational institutes have very limited The aviation industry continues to grow, despite economic undergraduate offerings in the fields of aeronautical engineering and aircraft maintenance technology, respectively. These and other issues affecting economic development in many programs are offered only in the local language, practically parts of the world. The global aviation workforce counts with restricting them to the indigenous market. Postgraduate approximately 10 million people acting directly in the industry offerings are currently inexistent. This study proposes a and nearly 63 million people in support of the industry, including generic model for undergraduate and postgraduate aviation programs. This model, aligning with the world’s best practice tourism services (ATAG 2016). Aviation is very important for in aviation education, would have to be adjusted to meet the Greek economy, in terms of its influence on tourism and the Greek aviation industry. A preliminary investigation to trade. Moreover, air transportation connects geographically identify the characteristics of the model was conducted in remote areas, including the large number of islands around the Greek aviation industry, through a survey supported with in-depth interviews. The research findings suggest that it is the country.

  • Prior Compliance List of Aircraft Operators Specifying the Administering Member State for Each Aircraft Operator – June 2014
    Prior compliance list of aircraft operators specifying the administering Member State for each aircraft operator – June 2014 Inclusion in the prior compliance list allows aircraft operators to know which Member State will most likely be attributed to them as their administering Member State so they can get in contact with the competent authority of that Member State to discuss the requirements and the next steps. Due to a number of reasons, and especially because a number of aircraft operators use services of management companies, some of those operators have not been identified in the latest update of the EEA- wide list of aircraft operators adopted on 5 February 2014. The present version of the prior compliance list includes those aircraft operators, which have submitted their fleet lists between December 2013 and January 2014. BELGIUM CRCO Identification no.
