Abstract Three mathematical programming models are developed in this paper, using different criteria, for the airport site selection problem in developing countries. Estimation of parameters, based on Turkish data, and the sensitivity analyses are presented. The first is a typical set covering model used to determine the minimum number of airports required for a given population of passengers. The other two are location-allocation type models used to find the optimal airport location patterns, the number of passengers to be bussed to cities having airports, and the optimal frequencies of transportation modes between the city pairs.
