Abstract:Airline deregulation has led to lower airfares and better service for most air
travelers, due largely to increased competition spurred by the entry of new
airlines into the industry and established airlines into new markets. However,
some airports-particularly those serving small and medium-sized communities in
the East and upper Midwest-have not experienced such entry and thus have
experienced higher fares and worse service since deregulation. This
Congressional report by the General Accounting Office (GAO) discusses still
existent barriers to competion and how those barriers have affected service and
airfares.
