  • Notes: Dependent variable is listed in each panel. “Trip characteristics” include the following variables: origin–destination route × ticket class fixed effects (FE), direct flight, length of stay dummy variables, and week fixed effects. “Employer characteristics” include the following variables: division × firm fixed effects and country fixed effects. “Employee characteristics” include the following variables: age dummy variables, number of trips per traveler dummy variables, and employee type fixed effects. The number of fixed effects associated with each set of controls is shown inside the parentheses next to each label in the first column. The total number of fixed effects reports the number of fixed effects included in each column/specification. See Appendix 1 for the definitions of the variables and fixed effects. All regressions are OLS regressions. Standard errors are in parentheses. Significance: *p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01, ***p ≤ 0.001.
