Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the strategic interaction between firm and competition authority in the context of individual exemptions for certain airline alliance agreements. We begin by developing a bargaining theory model of individual exemptions with exit. We then apply the model to individual exemptions for airline joint service agreements. We devote particular attention to the recent decisions on airline joint service agreements by the competition authorities in Australia and Singapore.
