Abstract

Islamic Republic of Iran has 8 international airports. This paper reports the performance evaluation of these airports in the end of forth development plan of Iran in 2009 by applying Kourosh and Arash Model (KAM) in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The area of airport, apron, terminal and runway are considered as inputs and the number of flights, the number of passengers and cargo are three selected outputs for each airport. Several scenarios are considered to rank and benchmark these airports without concerning about the number of airports. In other words, the scenarios are when inputs/outputs are controllable, when some of them are non-controllable and when the number of flights and passengers are restricted to the set of integer numbers and so on while the number of inputs and outputs are approximately the same as the number of airports. The results of these scenarios not only show the robustness of KAM to assess the performance evaluation of Decision Making Units (DMUs), but they also suggest the best international airports of Iran in 2009 as well as rank and benchmark them for each scenario.
