Abstract
This paper estimates the influence of terrorist attacks on European tourism through the short-term
post-hoc response of the airline industry and passengers. We use a seasonally-adjusted ARMAGARCH methodology on unique datasets that examine changes in tourism as measured by ASKs,
seats filled and changes in both fares and revenues. Traffic flows are found to fall despite significant
fare reductions; however, this response varies substantially based on the flight origin and tickettype purchased. We found that business travel slows substantially due to duty of care legislation
for corporate transport. While we found evidence indicating substantial airline fare reductions, in
the majority of investigated cases this response was unable to mitigate substantial reductions in
passenger demand and flows across varying ticket types.
