In response to an increasing number of inquiries for consumers about domestic airline prices the Department has decided to release a quarterly fare report. The initial report provides information about average prices being paid by consumers in the 1,000 largest domestic city-pair markets within the 48 contiguous states. These markets account for about 75 percent of all 48-state passengers and 70 precent of total domestic passengers. For each market, in addition to the average one way fare, Table 1 shows the number of one way passenger trips per day, the nonstop distance, identifies the airline with the largest market share and its average fare, and identifies the carrier with the lowest average fare. Average fares are average prices paid by all fare paying passengers. The information contained in Table 1 reveals that in many markets the average fares are quite different from carrier-to-carrier. In Table 2, the data are summarized by city. The pricing information in this report is based on data reported to the Department quarterly by certificated airlines.
