| Abstract: | Legislation in 1977/1978 effectively deregulated the U.S. domestic air cargo and air passenger transportation industries. International air transportation, largely as the result of the 'Open Skies' initiative of 1979 has been liberalized, however, geographically and temporally uneven. This study is concerned with extending the Open Skies concept and in accessing the benefits to the U.S. economy of removing the remaining impediments to the provision of free market services involving, particularly, the full transatlantic market. The study also developes a modeling framework to examine the implications of further liberalization on the economies of U.S. regions currently having limited international services. The work involves a macro-analysis of the impact of European international services for 41 Metropolitan Standard Areas. |
