    Abstract
  • Based on the analysis of domestic aviation market, the numbers of each airline's available tickets under different fare classes were regarded as decision variables, the seat capacity was taken as constraint, each airline's revenue maximum was taken as multi-objective function.A civil airline seat inventory control model in competition environment was set up, Lagrange multiplier method was used to solve the numbers of each airline's optimal low fare tickets, and the equilibrium seat was worked out.Simulation result shows that each airline's seat inventory control is restricted by each other and can arrive at equilibrium state.Due to the impact of passenger demand randomness, the model can achieve an equilibrium probability of 12.68% and a non-equilibrium probability of 87.32% in 12 000 simulations.The equilibrium is dynamic and hard to reach.The conclusions are consistent with practice, so the model is feasible.
