| Summary | Global air transportation stably grew before the Covid-19 pandemic. The demand for passenger businesses met a dramatic decrease because of travel bans and border controls under this disease influence. After three years, the pandemic has been controlled with improved prevention treatments already. Recovery of air transportation markets gradually appeared finally. The competition among hub airports in Asia is rather extreme and the step of retiring and replacing aircraft fleet in airlines never stops. Airport connection for the Taoyuan Airport (TPE), the main international airport of Taiwan, should be planned in time. This project aims to exploit big data analysis tools to analyze the international air travel data and to construct an appropriately evaluated framework. Furthermore, planners can apply this framework to diagnose some connectable airports for the TPE and airlines. The whole works include to realize the flight networks of the TPE and her competitive airports, to investigate civil aviation authorities, Taoyuan Airport Company, and national airlines for ensuring the possibility of future development. Also, through this project, planners can collect available and reliable data to conduct necessary evaluation with big data techniques. The most important is to apply the constructed framework to evaluate certain potential markets. This project selected Zurich airport (ZRH) of Swiss, Ben Gurion airport (TLV) of Israel, Male Velana airport (MLE) of Maldives, Boston airport (BOS) of USA, andDulles airport (IAD) of Washington as the studied cases. The analysis revealed that ZRH and MLE seem more possible to be connected with the TPE. The TLV is absolutely unavailable because Israel country was falling into the war status during this evaluation. BOS and IAD might not the ideal connected airports because of long flight distances, larger cost variations, higher break-even load factors, and lower margins. In particular, TPE links these two airport might cause the decreases of load factors of flights between TPE and JFK. |
