Summary The U.S. air transportation network is a complex network that is constantly growing and changing. It can be represented as an overlaying of two networks – a ‘physical network,’ representing all possible single flight segments, and the ‘market network’, which represents all the origin/destination pairs a customer could fly to and from. Understanding the relationship, representation, and the relation to geography of these two networks is a highly complex and difficult problem, one that is not solvable without the use of advanced computational methods and programming skills. With some careful analysis of the interactions of these two networks, we are able to hypothesize a given network interaction, such as the spread of disease across the network.
