The impact of oil market volatility on the airline-tourism: quantile VAR approach
Wahbeeah Mohti et al.
Abstract
This study investigates the quantile-specific connectedness between global airline indices, tourism indices, oil prices and oil volatility. Quantile Vector Autoregressive (QVAR) framework is employed across three quantiles (5th, 50th and 95th) to capture the dynamic connectedness under bearish, normal and bullish market conditions with particular emphasis on COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war period. To understand the sector-wise behavior and to identify the shock transmission patterns across sectors, group-level net spillovers are also estimated. Results indicate that airlines consistently act as dominant shock transmitters, tourism primarily absorbs shocks and oil and oil volatility function as reactive receivers, particularly under downside stress. The findings provide valuable insights for policymakers, investors and industry stakeholders in managing systemic risk and enhancing sectoral resilience under extreme market conditions.
