Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
The air travel demand is a principal step which has a strong impact on decision making process in both airline and airport planning. The accurate forecast on the number of passengers will be an important input to a variety of decision at different planning horizons. For example, air travel demand forecasts provide valuable insights that inform tactical planning decisions across various aspects of airline operations, helping airlines optimize resources, maximize revenue, and provide high-quality service to passengers. Additionally, by understanding future demand trends, airlines can make strategic decisions about fleet size, composition, and deployment to meet future passenger needs.

Air travel demand forecasting requires a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, incorporating historical data, economic indicators, market research, and industry expertise to predict future passenger demand accurately. In addition to the mentioned techniques, the air travel demand can be accurately predicted with the application of machine learning models. In essence, machine learning algorithms can analyze large volumes of historical data and identify complex patterns and relationships that may not be apparent with traditional statistical methods.
The project will focus on applying different types of methods in forecasting air travel demand.

The specific objective of the project are as follows:
1. Perform a thorough literature review on the application of air travel demand forecasting methods;
2. Classify the papers according to different planning horzions, level of study (e.g., route level, city pair level, country level), regions of the world;
3. Identify the databases available for performing this type of analysis;
4. Collect and process the data in order to perform the selected techniques/method;
5. Compare and discuss the performance of different techniques based on the obtained results; Acknowledge the advantages and limitations for each of them;

The TFG has been carried out within an Erasmus+ mobility program and, specifically, in the Beihang University (China ).
