Pricing techniques for the European airspace

The present work lays down the roadmap for a Ph.D. research on methods for redistributing traffic demand through pricing policies in European airspace. First, the authors introduce a classification framework for pricing schemes in network industries. The framework is then applied for identifying relevant characteristics that a pricing scheme for European airspace should have. Finally, some guidelines are drawn on which pricing approaches in other industries may be suitable for each of the delineated configurations.
