Abstract
It has been suggested that virtual codesharing is a mechanism used by airlines to segment passengers based on their price sensitivity. The objective of this paper is to test whether passengers' choice behavior is consistent with market segmentation being the primary motive for virtual codesharing. The findings fail to support the market segmentation motive.
