AbstractAirfares vary significantly over space, and can even vary substantially between airports in relatively close proximity with one another. With the spread of various Web tools, consumers are armed with more information than ever to assess fare and service differences between competing airlines and competing airports. This leads to the possibility of airport substitution for particular routes. Linear regression models are developed that suggest, despite the 70–90 mile distance, that passenger substitution may be occurring from Harrisburg and Philadelphia to Baltimore based as a result of differential fares, low-fare service, and other factors.
