| Abstract: | This paper analyzes the competitive strategies available to an Indian airline in a scenario where the entry of private domestic airlines has only recently been allowed. The Calcutta-Delhi route is initially analyzed as an example - where there are three major competing players. The fare charged by each airline being the same, the number of departures is used as one of the major competitive weapons. Game theory is used here as useful tool to analyze such situations. The equilibrium behaviour of the airlines is studied and the possibility of the game being played at the focal point is then analyzed. |
