Passenger demand forecasting
Anticipate passengers by route, station, flight, departure, and fare class.
Sound familiar?
- Full services turning passengers away while others run near empty
- Crowding discovered on the platform, not in the plan
- Disruptions that redistribute demand faster than operations can react

What you can predict
One forecast can answer several operational questions.
Use bookings, searches, service schedules, fares, weather, events, and disruption history to predict load and crowding throughout the network.
Passengers by service
Load factor
Station entries
Crowding risk
Questions teams need answered
- Which services will be full?
- Where will crowding occur?
- How much demand will shift after disruption?
- Which departures need more capacity?
Data that can improve the forecast
Start with the history you already have. Add internal or external drivers only when backtesting shows that they improve the forecast on held-out periods.
What-if planning
Test a change before committing to it.
Compare a proposed change with the current baseline. See the expected direction, timing, range, and the assumptions behind the result.
