Penalizing passenger’s transfer time in computing airlines revenue

Author

  • Clempner, Julio B.

Abstract

Airline strategic alliances result in a form of cooperation where firms can access the resources of others network members in order to create added value for their passengers. The shortcoming of this process is that each member of the network makes individual revenue management decisions to maximize its own income, resulting in a sub-optimal income for the network members.
