Modeling and Implications of Airport Ground Egress Mode Choice
Mode choice of airport ground access has been covered by several studies, but there is a lack of research in the case of airport ground egress; that is, mode choices of inbound passengers for ground trips from the airport to the city center. This study aimed to cover this gap by modeling the ground egress mode choice of passengers, employing mixed logit and comparing it with the multinomial logit model. The data for this research was collected at Istanbul’s Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (SAW) in 2015. Analyses included six modes, namely automobile, pick-up, public transit, taxi, shuttle and public transit (SP), and shuttle and taxi (ST). An important outcome was that a mixed logit model with error components outperformed the multinomial logit model. Results showed that significant variables affecting the ground egress mode choice included the income of the passenger, the cost of a ground trip from the airport, auto ownership status, number of luggage and trip purpose. Passengers are less constrained by ground travel time in their airport egress trips than in their airport access trips. By this, a significant finding was that prioritizing egress trip cost over travel time affected the mode choice.
