New Distribution Capability and Dynamic Pricing: Implications for Airline Revenue Management

“New distribution technologies (include IATA's NDC standard) will soon allow airlines to dynamically adjust prices based on the characteristics of each shopping request. In this presentation, we present a framework defining the different mechanisms already under development by airlines to take advantage of these new capabilities -- from "dynamic price adjustment" to "continuous pricing" and, ultimately, "dynamic offer generation". 

We discuss the implications of these next-generation pricing mechanisms for traditional airline revenue management systems and models. Using results from MIT PODS simulations, we show how these dynamic pricing mechanisms can lead to revenue gains for implementing airlines, as well as potential impacts on competitors.”
