Data cohort: Flights departing March 14, 2015 – April 18, 2015 •  Observation period: 7 days ending March 7, 2015

Notes• We see some drops among traditionally warmer destinations like Miami, Orlando, and

Data cohort: Flights departing March 14, 2015 – April 18, 2015 •  Observation period: 7 days ending March 7, 2015

Notes• Discrepancies between the top names in origin vs. destination suggests the possibility of a

supply/demand imbalance for this cohort. (i.e., more people flying out of a city than flying in).

Data cohort: Flights departing March 14, 2015 – April 18, 2015 •  Observation period: 7 days ending March 7, 2015

Notes• There was a near-universal

but de minimis change in the pricing of a couple routes: ANC/SEA and HNL/LAX. In both cases, the vast majority of fares were only raised by a fraction of a dollar.

• Somewhat more impacted are a number of flights involving JFK and SFO, which did see fares gap up by $30-50.
