Havayolları için yeni rota seçiminde çok kriterli karar verme yöntemi yaklaşımları

In this study, it is aimed to select the new best airport destination for an airline in Turkey with the base situated in Istanbul Airport. This study is unique in terms of plentiful criteria used and a fresh perspective brought by the comparative analysis of BOCR and simple ANP methods. It also fills a gap in the literature caused by the lack of ANP applications for destination selection. In this work, first, a brief review of literature is presented including studies using multi-criteria decision-making in route evaluation and in the airline industry. The model is constructed both using one-level Analytic Network Process (ANP) and Benefit, Opportunity, Cost and Risk (BOCR) analysis. Both normalized statistical direct data and expert opinions based on the 1-9 scale of Saaty are used to determine the weight of each criterion through analysis. According to simple ANP method, Mariscal Sucre International Airport in Tababela, Quito is the best alternative with the strategic considerations as the most dominant criterion, while BOCR analysis shows that Denpasar, I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport is the best under benefit, opportunity and risk dimensions with the passenger demand as the most dominant criterion and as for the cost perspective, Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport situated in Moroni is the best, while it is the worst alternative under risk dimension
