Abstract
An airline passenger has a number of choices before he/she makes his/her travel decision. Competing airlines are also interested in the preference set of the traveller. Passenger choice modelling is an essential component of any revenue management system. In this paper, we develop a linear utility model for airline travel using a logarithmic goal programming method. The utility score of the competing airlines can help the passengers to choose the best feasible option among several alternatives. The rank can also provide a system of mechanism that compares the competing airlines in a common framework. In addition, we derive the choice probability of the airlines by a multinomial logit choice model which in turn facilitates the airlines to make a relative comparison among them and to estimate the market share.
