Abstract

Airports are imperative elements in fueling the economic growth of a country by reducing the distances between origins and destinations for the movement of both passengers and goods. Managing ground access modes of travel has become essential as the majority of trips are made by private cars, leading to increased environmental issues and congestion. To alleviate these problems, it is vital to identify the factors that shape air passengers' choice of ground access mode. In this work, we utilized inclusive Revealed Preference data (RP) collected through face-to-face interviews and applied a Multinomial Logit (MNL) model to study passengers' ground access mode choice behavior at Mehrabad International Airport, the busiest airport in Iran. The results showed that different factors such as socioeconomic status, travel characteristics, and distance to the airport affect the mode choice behavior of passengers in reaching the airport.
