Optimum Airport Capacity Utilization under Congestion Management: A Case Study of New York LaGuardia Airport

Loan Le, George Donohue, Karla Hoffman, Chun-Hung Chen
2008 Transportation planning and technology (Print)  
We model a profit-seeking, single benevolent airline, and develop an airline economic model to simulate its scheduling decisions.  ...  This airline is benevolent in the sense that it considers historic pricing at LaGuardia and the associated price-elasticity and attempts to service this population while simultaneously remaining profitable  ...  Flight schedules are determined through the interaction of two processes or models: (i) airlines seek profit-maximizing schedules and (ii) airports maximize enplanement opportunities subject to capacity  ...

I.  ...  In conclusion, we found that financial stability and profitability are the top two factors affecting merging decision while profitability is the only concern in the code sharing games.  ...  The third assumption describes the fact that the practices of code sharing or merging should be driven by the motivation of profit maximization.  ...

Airline Frequency Competition in Airport Congestion Pricing

Vikrant Vaze, Cynthia Barnhart
2012 Transportation Research Record  
Airlines are typically assumed to be rational decision makers, each driven by its own profit-maximization objective.  ...  Also, because airlines are comparatively more reluctant to reduce flight frequency at a higher value, airline profits are lower.  ...  The data is loosely based on two major airlines, namely, Delta Airlines (DL) and US Airways (US) operating in each of these two markets.  ...

Optimizing marketing planning and budgeting using Markov decision processes: An airline case study

A. Labbi, C. Berrospi
2007 IBM Journal of Research and Development  
The title and abstract, but no other portions, of this paper may be copied or distributed royalty free without further permission by computer-based and other information-service systems.  ...  We present a case study of a pilot program with a leading European airline, and we show how this company optimized its frequent flyer program to reduce its marketing budget and increase customer value.  ...  The fierce competition to be among the preferred airlines of a large corporation leads some airlines to accept corporate contracts that yield little profit.  ...

Fleet Planning Decision-Making: Two-Stage Optimization with Slot Purchase

Lay Eng Teoh, Hooi Ling Khoo
2016 Journal of Optimization  
Essentially, strategic fleet planning is vital for airlines to yield a higher profit margin while providing a desired service frequency to meet stochastic demand.  ...  The developed model is practically viable for airlines not only to provide a better service quality (via a higher service frequency) to meet more demand but also to obtain a higher revenue and profit margin  ...  For other studies, service frequency is optimized in maximizing the profit margin of the airlines.  ...
