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

The object of the research described 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 estimated by variables determining that part of the travel decision.
