In the highly competitive airline industry, differentiation between service offerings plays a crucial role in maintaining the existing customer base as well as attracting new clientele. There are a myriad number of ways to approach this goal. Separating the significant few from the trivial many involves listening to market demands and responding with the appropriate investment in capital and or...

Public transport information provision in rural areas is often fragmented and of poor quality at best and non-existent at worst. This can have a significant impact on the everyday life of the inhabitants of rural areas, particularly in terms of limiting their travel choices and thereby their opportunities to access goods, service and social networks. Inadequate information provision also poses ...

This paper deals with how to develop a model to forecast air passenger demand and to evaluate some policy scenarios related with runway and passenger terminal capacity expansion to meet the future demand. System dynamics frameworks can be used to model, to analyze and to generate scenario to increase the system performance because of its capability of representing physical and information flows...

The primary objective of the National Airspace System (NAS) is the transportation of passengers and cargo. It is no surprise, therefore, that passenger trip time performance is positively correlated with passenger satisfaction, airfare elasticity, and airline profits. Regulatory consumer information available to airline passengers provides measures of trip performance using only flight data (an...

The raison d’etre for the air transportation system is the movement of passengers and cargo. Consumer information for airline passengers and regulatory consumer protection of airline services provide measures of performance using the percentage of on-time flights, and the percentage of cancelled flights. Researchers have shown that these “flight-based” metrics are a poor proxy for measuring the...

Meeting the challenges of implementing sustainable transport planning and technological organization transportations requires knowledge information about demand for travel. This is not collected to current statistical accounting system. article examines matters relating application technology obtain inter–district correspondences data needs passengers travel on existing routes.

The present study investigated the unsteady transport of droplets exhaled by an index passenger in an aircraft cabin using the CFD simulations. A section of twin aisle cabin with seven-rows and full occupancy was studied. It was found that the expiratory droplet cloud was initially dense and moved to specific zones. The droplet concentrations were higher in these zones. The droplet concentratio...
