Summary:Airline's behavior in the market is an exogenous condition in the existing “practical” air demand forecast models. However domestic air transport market is competitive nowadays and airlines can almost freely choose their strategies.

This paper proposes a model which integrates an oligopoly market model and a demand flow assignment model to analyze policy alternatives in above situation.
