DEMAND FOR AIR TRAVEL BETWEEN NEW YORK CITY AND OTHER LARGE CITIES

The object of the research is to develop and use an air travel demand model between New York City and other large cities. Demand is organized into a 3-way classification (time period, city destination, and airline) that corresponds to the 3-stage decision made by the traveler. Analysis of variance is used to test the significance of the classification. Each section of the demand model is then estimated by variables determining that part of the travel decision. This model is significant because it breaks down demand to allow an economic analysis of each section, and because more accurate extrapolation forecasting of air travel demand within each classification is possible when each section of the model is estimated. /Author/
