Abstract

This paper applies a model in which a local market served by high-speed rail (HSR) and an airline is connected with an international market serving two different airlines. Our aim is to assess the necessity for a ban on short-haul flights from an economic policy standpoint and to investigate the potential for market self-regulation to eradicate unnecessary flights. Specifically, we examine whether banning short flights is economically necessary or if the market can independently eliminate non-essential flights. We find that raising HSR preference among individuals is preferable to directly intervening in the market. The results of this study are especially useful for market segmentation and pricing tactics in the transportation industry.

短途航班禁令背景下的高铁偏好动态

本文采用一个由高铁和航空公司服务的本地市场与由两家不同航空公司服务的国际市场相连接的模型。我们的目的是从经济政策的角度评估禁止短途航班的必要性，并调查市场自我调节以消除不必要航班的可能性。具体来说，我们研究禁止短途飞行是否在经济上是必要的，或者市场是否可以独立地消除非必要的航班。我们发现，提高个体高铁偏好比直接干预市场更可取。本研究的结果对交通运输行业的市场细分和定价策略特别有用。

期刊介绍： Transport Policy is an international journal aimed at bridging the gap between theory and practice in transport. Its subject areas reflect the concerns of policymakers in government, industry, voluntary organisations and the public at large, providing independent, original and rigorous analysis to understand how policy decisions have been taken, monitor their effects, and suggest how they may be improved. The journal treats the transport sector comprehensively, and in the context of other sectors including energy, housing, industry and planning. All modes are covered: land, sea and air; road and rail; public and private; motorised and non-motorised; passenger and freight.
