11 BACKGROUND The prediction of air passenger and airport employee mode choice decisions for their travel to and from the airport forms a key analytical component of airport landside planning, as well as airport system planning. There is currently however no well-accepted and validated process for modeling how airport users will change their access or egress mode in response to changes in the airport ground transportation system (such as changes in fares, rates, or service levels)

13 of planning issues to which the models have been applied, the technical approach adopted to represent air passenger choice behavior, the ground access modes included in the models, the explanatory variables used to model the transportation system and air passenger characteristics, and the market segmentation that has been used to improve the ability of the models to account for air passenger ground access behavior. It also discusses a number of considerations that arise in developing and applying these models, as well as issues of model performance.
