摘要
This paper applies the B-convex model in order to investigate the technical efficiency of a representative sample of US airlines over the period 1998-2010. The results are mixed and reveal that US airlines' efficiency can be influenced by the size of the airline, mergers and acquisitions, and by time. Policy implications are derived.
