Abstract
Air transportation in China has experienced tremendous growth and major reforms in the past three decades. While there is a large literature on airline liberalization, publications about China are limited. As China transforms from a centrally planned economy to a market economy, how closely has China followed the practice of liberalizing the airline industry seen in other countries around the world? This paper offers a review of air transportation development in China and compares China’s approach with other countries. In particular, this study examines the impact of the government-led airline consolidation of 2002 upon domestic network structure and competition.
