Castillo-Manzano, José I.

Journal of Air Transport Management, 2010, vol. 16, issue 6, 295-298

Abstract: This article, examines differences between the behavior of passengers of low-cost and network airlines when choosing their transport mode for travel to airports. It is found that a passenger flying with a low-cost carrier is 6% less likely to take a taxi to the airport, but more than 4% more likely to drive a rented car and 2% more likely to use public transport than a user of a network carrier.
