Abstract:
In this article, we mainly want to analyze the competition between high-speed railway and aviation in China, and study whether the opening of high-speed railway will have tremendous impact on the airlines. Firstly, we analyze the development and trends of both the high-speed railway and aviation in China. Secondly, we compare the advantages of these two travel tools. Thirdly, we take the examples in and outside China that high-speed railway affects the operation of airlines. And then we use the Share Rate Model to analyze the share rate of these two transportations in different mileages and reach the results. When the mileage is below 900 km, the high-speed railway occupys more percents of passengers than the aviation. With the increase of mileage, the share rates of these two ways are getting closer to each other. And at the 900 km, each way occupys 50% of passengers.
