Abstract

Airline companies have been using dynamic pricing to vary the ticket prices to maximize the profit for a limited number of seats. Though the algorithm is different for all the airlines and never disclosed, it is possible to predict the variation in ticket prices. There have been studies in the past for the same, none explicitly for the Indian market; considering the major holidays. Applying techniques from Machine learning model of neural networks and backpropagation, we could predict the upcoming surge or dip in the ticket prices. We aim at predicting if the price of the ticket will go down in the future or the current price is the lowest.
