Deregulation of the American airline industry has led to the prevalence of the hub and spoke system. Song (geography, U. of Wisconsin at Parkside) examines the economic impact of the system on carriers and passengers, modeling how this affects travel behavior. He finds that one-stop traveling has increased in long- distance travel because of lower prices and explores the disparities that have arisen between short and long haul price structures.

Deregulation of the U.S. domestic airline industry has undeniably created vast changes in both the structure of the industry's networks and in the manner in which passengers arrange their travel patterns. Dr. Song explores some of the aspects of the impact of the reorganization of the domestic network from one that was heavily regulated and fostered a direct-flights structure to one that is highly structured hierarchically, the hub and spoke system.
