See moreAustralia is vitally dependent on aviation services for delivering passenger accessibility to many rural and remote locations. The majority of airports in Australia are regional airports. There are real opportunities for a number of regional airports to improve their services for the region through the introduction of low cost carriers (LCCs). The aim of this paper is to investigate this potential, through a formal model system of the entire aviation network in Australia, focusing on identifying influences on passenger demand and flights offered, and the role of air fares and number of competitors on each route.
