Abstract

While a variety of papers consider only the competition between the two transportation means: aviation and high-speed rail (HSR), we analyze the effects of competition between the three parties by distinguishing aviation from full-service carrier (FSC) and low-cost carrier (LCC). This paper investigates the effect of the high-speed rail‘s competition strategies (weight of welfare, rail speed and access time to transport terminals) on the equilibrium ticket price and market shares of each transportation mode with the use of an adapted Circular city model. The results show how the price and market share changes depending on the variation of the three variables. We further suggest implications from the perspective of each competitor based on the results. Finally, an empirical study on Korea’s transportation markets is conducted to verify the proposed model and analyze the market situation.

지금까지 항공과 고속철도의 경쟁관계를 분석하는 다양한 선행연구들이 있었지만, 대부분은 항공 교통시장을 하나의 시장으로 본 채 연구를 진행하였다. 이에 비해 본 연구는 항공 교통시장을 전서비스항공사(FSC)와 저비용항공사(LCC)로 구분하였으며, 고속철도와 함께 3자간의 경쟁관계에서 고속철도의 경쟁전략이 개별 교통시장의 운임과 점유율에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 분석하였다. Circular city 모델을 활용한 개발 모형을 통해 사회적 후생수준 고려 정도, 고속철도의 속도, 터미널 접근시간의 변화양상에 따라 개별 교통시장의 상황이 어떻게 변하는지를 파악하고자 하였으며, 분석결과를 바탕으로 고속철도, 항공사, 정부 측면에서의 시사점을 제시하였다. 마지막으로, 개발 모형을 검증하는 동시에 현재 한국 교통시장의 상황을 분석하기 위해 실제 서울-부산 노선의 데이터를 활용한 실증분석을 진행하였다.
