Vulnerability of the European air transport network to major airport closures from the perspective of passenger delays: Ranking the most critical airports
HighlightsWe measure the vulnerability of European air transport to major airport closures.Our model relocates disrupted passengers to minimum-delay itineraries.Results challenge the link between airport centrality and network damage.Access to local surrogates and alliance overlap reduce airport criticality.Inter-alliance cooperation can improve the quality of relocation.
AbstractThis paper analyzes the vulnerability of the European air transport network to major airport closures from the perspective of the delays imposed to disrupted airline passengers. Using an MIDT dataset on passenger itineraries flown during February 2013, full-day individual closures of the 25 busiest European airports are simulated and disrupted passengers then relocated to minimum-delay itineraries. Aggregate delays are used to rank the criticality of each airport to the network, with the possibility of disaggregating the impact across geographical markets. The results provide useful reference values for the development of policies aimed at improving the resilience of air transport networks.
