Conclusion
This article has presented the changes
in the Philippine domestic airline
industry since 1995.
The findings suggest that the impact
of liberalization on the domestic
industry is mixed. Departure frequency increased in the most profitable
markets, while smaller communities
either lost service altogether or experienced sizeable declines in departure
frequency and capacity. Furthermore,
some markets served by a single airline have relatively higher fares, consistent with the impact of deregulation on the US domestic airline industry.
