Fare determination in airline hub-and-spoke networks

Article Abstract:

A study was done to analyze the relationship between airline hub-and-spoke networks and airfares. The study suggests that increased traffic volume on airline network spokes decreases airfares. Large networks have high traffic densities and low costs per passenger. Thus, rates are expected to be low in the market. Empirical research shows that network characteristics are vital in determining airfares.
