(i) What is the QSI for direct?
(ii) Which option (direct or
connecting) scores better?
(iii) What should the direct fare be,
in order to be equally ranked?

QSI (Quality Service
Index) analysis works by assigning a weighting factor
to different flight options available to a passenger when flying
between point A and point B, to reflect the passenger’s preference
for one flight option over another;
The example below illustrates the split of O&D traffic by routing between 2 airports and the number of non-stop and on-line connections between them in a given week: O&D Traffic Non-stop Connecting 80,000 20,000 Market Share Weekly Frequency QSI Value QSI Non-stop Connecting Non-stop Connecting Non-stop Connecting Factor Total 100,000 80% 20% 7 43 11.43% 0.46% 25 QSI Value or how much market share did each frequency capture. In this case: 1 non-stop = 80% / 7 or 11% of the market whereas 1 connecting flight <0.5% QSI Factor or how much more attractive is the non-stop flight option compared to the indirect one = 11.43% / 0.46% = 25
