Crecimiento económico y tráfico aéreo de pasajeros: un análisis para las entidades federativas en México

Abstract

Objective: In this paper, we examine the causal relationship between economic growth and air passenger transport in Mexico in the period of 2003-2017. Methodology: We applied a cointegration analysis using Pedroni and Johansen test and vector error, correction models as well as causality Granger test. Result: Suggests that a higher volume of traffic influences the direction of causality. We discuss the policy implications. Limitations: The main limitation is that this analysis contains just two variables. Conclusions: exist a long run unidirectional Granger causality, which runs from air passenger to economic growth.
