Decision Analysis: Imitation Feasibility of Auctioning Alternative

This document discusses the feasibility of auctioning alternative options for airlines, including auctioning smoking rights in aircraft cabins and auctioning landing priority at airports. Auctioning smoking rights would likely be infeasible due to legal and health issues from secondhand smoke, and difficult to contain smoke within cabins. Auctioning landing priority could provide economic benefits but may induce unsafe emergency landings or unnecessary fuel use, posing safety risks for passengers during takeoff and landing. Both options face regulatory and ethical concerns.

Decision Analysis

Imitation feasibility of auctioning


alternative
Auctioning for the smoking right
• Economic criteria—additional revenue benefit to
the airline minus the installation cost of special
cabin
• Legal criteria—infeasible under the flight
regulation or the health related lawsuit
• Practical criteria—difficult to quarantine the
smoke spreading absolutely in the flight cabin
(non-exclusive externality)
• Ethical criteria—the dirty smoke mist as the
poisonous gas to the lungs
Auctioning for the landing priority
• Economic criteria—discrimination pricing benefit
to the airport; the potential catastrophe after the
air traffic jamming
• Legal criteria—(in-)feasible under the flight
regulation? the discretion of air traffic controller
• Practical criteria—resulting in too many
emergency landing; to induce the fuel-wasting
hover and unnecessary going around
• Ethical criteria—the safety of flight passengers;
the most dangerous timing of flight occurs at
taking off and landing
