Our analysis uses a panel dataset of air passenger numbers on non-stop city-pair routes for the years 2002–2019. We also explore the effects of other variables, including average airfares, night train connections, the presence of low-cost carriers, and the market concentration of airlines (Herfindahl-Hirschman Index). The empirical approach is rooted in a structural gravity model, incorporating recent advancements in gravity modeling. Our results show that improved rail travel speed has a significant impact on the number of airline passengers in a given city pair. Specifically, a 1 % increase in train travel speed corresponds to an overall decrease in air passengers of 0.55 %. This effect is more pronounced for domestic routes, with an average decrease of 0.74 %, as well as for shorter distances and business class passengers. For international connections only, however, the effect is insignificant, but the provision of a night train connection has the potential to shift passenger traffic from air services to train services by between 10 % to over 30 %. Our estimated elasticities can be used to calculate the CO<sub>2</sub> emissions reduction potential for different modal shifts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46989,"journal":{"name":"Case Studies on Transport Policy","volume":"21 ","pages":"Article 101549"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144687397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analysing data from Mongolia’s international aviation markets (2014–2023), this study examines market dynamics shaping flight frequencies, airline competition, and ticket prices. Findings indicate that on routes where additional flights and seat capacity are introduced if air travel demands do not keep pace, airlines are forced to lower fares to fill seats and thereby suffer from a reduced yield. High-frequency routes, such as those to Beijing, Seoul, Istanbul, and Tokyo, experience intense competition and aggressive pricing, putting additional pressure on yield. In view of the overall inverse relationship between yield and flight frequency, airlines seem to prioritise profitability on certain routes by limiting flights to maintain airfare levels. Mongolia’s market has largely been dominated by full-service carriers (FSCs) with a limited presence of low-cost carriers (LCCs). To enhance air connectivity and industry growth, the Mongolian aviation industry may explore options such as (a) enhancing efficiency in the aviation sector to reduce operational costs; (b) facilitating strategic alliances or route-based cooperations with foreign airlines; (c) introducing more flexibility and freedom in airline operation, notably on seat capacity and route choices in the high and low seasons; and (d) allowing LCC growth on domestic and regional routes, including but not limited to low cost subsidiary of incumbent full service airline. The Mongolian government should also promote national and foreign network carrier services linking major international hub airports with Mongolia’s main airport in conjunction with efforts to boost international tourism and e-commerce.

The integration of three forecasting models improved prediction accuracy and revealed a 12-day lag effect between COVID-19 case trends and changes in APT.

Vehicle identification, on the other hand, was consistently rated positively. Quadrant analysis revealed that most attributes were considered strengths, although communication channels and itinerary flexibility require prioritization. The study emphasizes the importance of addressing specific gaps for each stakeholder to improve service performance.

Qualitative responses further reveal diverse policy expectations spanning social, technical, and economic domains. The findings emphasize the necessity of a comprehensive local policy framework to facilitate EV uptake in emerging markets. Such a framework should address evolving challenges, including battery recycling, integration with home energy systems, and the development of supporting services.
