Abstract
Air transport deregulation within the European Union is expected to make hubbing an increasingly important strategy for European airlines. The optimal geographical location for a single European hub is found to be Paris or Brussels. However, KLM at Amsterdam and Lufthansa at Frankfurt are shown to be the two major airlines providing the most effective hubbing operations. Despite their large networks, British Airways at London Heathrow and Air France at Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) have lower connectivity. Amsterdam and Paris are the airports with the greatest scope for increasing capacity, although there is also potential for certain regional hubs to develop.
