Speaker: Assistant Prof. Benny Mantin, University of Waterloo
Theme: “On airport complementarity, ownership, and multi-sided markets”
With LCCs'expansion and airport governance reforms, air transport markets in Japan could drastically change. If the governance forms of the two airports that form start or end of an air transport route are different, what is its impacts on social welfare? When airports could be modeled as three-sided markets among runway/facility-operator, commercial business and airlines, how can we understand such intricate three-sided markets especially on such elements as landing charges, congestion costs and concession revenues?
Assistant Prof. Benny Mantin of University of Waterloo will explain his recent researches on these very important and interesting problems.
Public policy/business officials as well as researchers are very much welcome.

Theme: “Airline Contracts, Government Regulation and the International Airline Market&rquo;
As Japan expands Open-Sky Agreement (OSA) network and airlines tighten their alliances, the situations surrounding Japanese air transport market are changing rapidly. What are the effects of the differences of code share agreements to form their alliances on airfares? What impact OSA may have on social welfare? These are very important questions from business as well as public policy viewpoints.
In this workshop, we invite Assistant Professor Benny Mantin of University of Waterloo to present his recent paper on these problems.
