9.4.1.1. Development of Traffic Projection Model<br />

In developing long-term traffic scenarios, various models of traffic dem<strong>and</strong> were considered<br />

(CAEP/4-FESG, 1998), particularly those incorporating a market maturity concept. Under this<br />

concept, historical traffic growth rates in excess of economic growth are considered unlikely to<br />

continue indefinitely, <strong>and</strong> traffic growth will eventually approach a rate equal to GDP growth as<br />

<strong>the</strong> various global markets approached maturity. Based on this assumption, a single global<br />

model of traffic dem<strong>and</strong> per unit of GDP was developed, based on a logistics growth curve<br />

function:<br />

t = time<br />

RPK = revenue passenger-km<br />

GDP = gross domestic product<br />

The parameters in <strong>the</strong> model equation were estimated from historic values of RPK/GDP for <strong>the</strong><br />
