Forecasting the Demand of Domestic Sectors that Contribute 80% of SAUDIA Domestic Capacity

Abstract

Domestic Air Travel demand in KSA has dramatically grown in recent years after the introduction of 3 new carriers resulting in the renewal of domestic air transportation. Air Travel demand forecast is a key element for an airline company to plan its short term or long-term business plan. Historical demand from 2013 to 2018 was studied to forecast future demand. Trend Analysis (Linear - Exponential Growth - Quadratic), Winter (Additive - Multiplicative), and Exponential Smoothing (Single - Double) and multi regression were used to forecast demand from 2020 to 2025.
