Online Supplement: Market Structure and Competition in Airline Markets

چکیده
This section closely follows Ciliberto and Tamer (2009) (henceforth CT), and we refer to that paper for further reading. We provide a set of sufficient conditions that guarantee point identification of the model parameters in equation (1) in the main text. These conditions are natural in this context and rely on large support regressors. Our inference methods do not require that these conditions be satisfied as the moment inequalities adapt to partial identification, but we give them here to give intuition as to what exogenous variation might be helpful for gaining identification.

متن کاملEndogenous and Selective Service Choices After Airline Mergers
We estimate a model of service choice and price competition in airline markets, allowing for the carriers that provide nonstop service to be a selected subset of the carriers competing in the market. Our model can be estimated without an excessive computational burden and we use the estimated model to illustrate the effects of selection on equilibrium market structure and to show how accounting...
