Abstract
In order to improve the weight of airports in the aviation connectivity index model developed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), only considering the insufficiency of annual passenger throughput, considering the influence factors such as the proportion of transit passengers, the number of departing flight seats, and the number of navigation points, the weight of the destination airport in the model is re-determined by using the critic weighting method. Using the operational data of 37 airports with a throughput exceeding 10 million in my country in 2018, the analysis found that:(1) Since the connectivity model has comprehensively considered other indicators when determining the airport weights after the improvement, the weights of most airports have changed, which has further changed the connectivity ranking of airports in my country;(2) The aviation connectivity of hub airports in my country is much greater than that of regional airports, and the connectivity rankings of hub airports are generally higher and the connectivity rankings of regional airports are lower;(3) The aviation connectivity scores of most airports in my country are generally low, and the development of airport connectivity is unbalanced. Therefore, the improved airline connectivity index model can reflect the level of airline connectivity of China's airports more objectively and accurately.
