Abstract. The number of Indonesian domestic passengers which increased rapidly has encouraged for the airlines to expand their market share by opening routes in the local region and one of the promising region is Bandung. In early 2019, the Low-Cost Carrier has implemented paid baggage policy. The changes of airline conditions and regulations could affect consumer purchasing decisions. The airline have to redesign its strategies and conduct a strategy adjusment to identify the consumer's needs and wants these days. Based on the problem description, this research aims to identify what significant attributes influence passenger's purchasing decision-making and determine what elastic and inelastic attributes. Data collection using an online questionnaire then spread to 235 respondents and were analyzed with Mixed Logit Model using BIOGEME software. The results shows that airline's departure time is a significant attribute towards passenger's airline choice. Ticket price also plays a key role in selecting an airline for passengers when the ticket price increases, Passenger will consider choosing other alternative airlines that are more affordable. The results could be used by an airline company to attract the passenger by improving its marketing strategy. Keywords: Low-cost carrier, airline choice, airline attribute, mixed logit, demand elasticities

Abstract:
The liberalization of the aviation market has enabled low-cost airlines to take over a significant share in the aviation market. Benefits of low-cost models are multiple, both for passengers and for secondary and regional airports, which were neglected in the past and which record significant inflow of passengers with the arrival of low-cost airlines. In the structure of the air traffic in the Republic of Croatia in the last ten years, there has been a progressive growth of foreign low-cost airline operations, which suggests a potential for the operation of a Croatian low-cost airline. This paper defines the criteria applicable to modelling of a low-cost airline in the Republic of Croatia in the relevant context of fleet management, route networking and operator’s processes in traffic technology. It analyzes the dynamics of low-cost airlines operations in the structure of air traffic in Croatia and the impact of traffic on the status of airports and the national operator.

Abstract:
Purpose: This study investigates air passengers’ perceptions of the brand personalities of airlines and explores the relationships between the brand personality and its antecedent factor, the country-of-origin of the airlines, and the consequent factor which is the purchase intentions to the corresponding airlines.Design/methodology/approach: The study uses a questionnaire survey containing air passengers’ trip characteristics and demographics and three main scales: country-of-origin, brand personality, and purchase intentions to collect the data of 490 respondents flying from Kaohsiung to Macao. The passengers are from three types of airlines: an international airline with a global network, a regional airline, and a low-cost carrier. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted to investigate the differences in the perceptions of brand personalities of airlines and several models were developed to determine the antecedent and the consequent factors of airline brand personality.Findings: The air passengers’ perceptions regarding the brand personalities of different types of airlines were significantly different. The country-of-origin of airlines was proved as a significant factor for the brand personality. The brand personality also significantly influenced passengers’ loyalty to the corresponding airlines. Moreover, some demographic and trip characteristics such as personal monthly income, memberships in the airline’s frequent flyer program, and experiences with the airlines were also determined as the significant variables to impact passengers’ loyalties.Originality/value: The concept of brand personality has been explored by various researches but few related to airline management and identified as a key element to brand marketing. Particularly, low-cost carriers always implement different marketing strategies to create a distinctive position in their target customers’ mind and legacy airlines are also doing different things to retain their customers. Therefore, investigating passengers’ perceptions of airlines from the perspective of brand personality is also an important issue for airline management. Not only does this study prove the differences in passengers’ cognitions of brand personalities of a global network airline, a regional network airline, and a low-cost airline but conclude the determinants and influences of the brand personality.

Abstract:
Abstract Over the last years, the rise of low-cost airlines has determined significant changes in the airline industry and has shaped the evolution of the existing business models. Low-cost airlines started by offering basic services at very low prices; traditional airlines responded by equally cutting costs and reinventing the services offered, with an orientation towards braking down the fare and implementing add-ons, in order to become cost-efficient. As traditional airlines developed strategies to become competitive in this new environment, low-cost airlines started focusing on new ways of enhancing passenger experience and attracting new market segments. As a result, the fragmentation of the market segments addressed by low cost carriers and traditional airlines became less obvious and the characteristics of both business models started to blend at all levels (airline operation, distribution channels, loyalty programs, fleet selection). Thus, this new competition became the foundation of the development of a new „hybrid” carrier, between the low-cost and the traditional models. This article investigates the characteristics of the newly created business model, both from a theoretical perspective and by analysing several case studies. A particular attention will be granted to the evolution of the Romanian carrier Blue Air towards the “hybrid” model. The article focuses on determining the position of the “hybrid” airline in a market with carriers situated along both sides of this business model: lower cost vs. “better” experience and raises the question on how value can be generated in this context. Another aspect tackled is the understanding of the new segmentation of the market, as a consequence of the development of the new business model. In order to achieve this purpose, a survey has been conducted, aiming to mark out the travel preferences of the passengers travelling through the Henri Coandă International Airport.

Abstract:
The airline industry has performed inconsistently since deregulation in 1978 and there has been a significant profit discrepancy between legacy airlines and low-cost carriers. Starting from the early 2000s, four of the largest legacy airlines chose to consolidate with an effort to increase efficiency and profitability. Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines have consolidated in 2008, becoming the largest commercial airline in the world. This paper examined the merger effect on the airfares on top 1,000 U.S. domestic city-pair routes in relation to the number of passengers, the distance, and the market share as well as its potential anticompetitive issues. All airlines were categorized into three groups - Legacy Airlines, Delta-Northwest, and Low-Cost Carriers - and the interactions between the airfares and the variables were examined within each airline group and across different airline groups. It was found that the airfares of legacy airlines and Delta-Northwest decreased at a faster rate than the low-cost carriers while their market shares increased simultaneously irrespective of whether they offered the lowest prices or had the largest market share on each route.

Abstract:
The airline industry has entered a rapid development and transformation process, especially after the Second World War. In this process, it is seen that the market structure changed and many private airlines were established. Due to increased competition, airlines have begun to follow various strategies and business models in order to gain a competitive advantage over each other. One of the business models successfully applied recently is the low-cost business model. Therefore, this study focuses on airline companies that applied the low-cost business model. The study aims to reveal the factors that determine the financial risk in airlines, which implements the low-cost business model. For this purpose, firstly, airline companies that implement the low-cost business model have been identified according to the classification in the literature. The study included an analysis of 13 airlines with the low-cost business model that was fully accessible to financial data for the 2004-2017 period. Panel data analysis was used in the study and Altman (1968) Z-Score and Springate (1978) S-Score were used in measuring financial risk. Empirical findings of the study reveal that firm leverage, asset structure, firm size, firm profitability, and liquidity ratio have an effect on financial risk.

Abstract:
Low-cost carriers (LCCs) have been growing by 11.4% in revenue passenger kilometers over 2017 and changed the airline industry radically. It drove down prices in the industry. Southwest Airlines (USA) designed the LCC blueprint model, and Ryanair copied it within Europe, followed by other airlines. This research aims to fulfill the gap in contemporary research upon LCC successfulness in Europe by a description of the current situation within Europe (2018 and January 2019) and the development issues it faced, which are mapped by the Ishikawa fishbone diagram. Furthermore, to rank the airlines on strength and vulnerability, The Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methodology was used for meeting LCC characteristics and airline success. By comparison of meeting the LCC characteristics and the rank of the successfulness, the results of the TOPSIS analysis showed that the airlines meeting the most LCCs characteristics are seemingly less vulnerable to the development issues that airlines are facing, as Wizz Air and Ryanair are meeting most characteristics and are the most successful. Concluded is that airlines meeting the most LCC characteristics are the least vulnerable to current issues. However, major disruptions can still form an issue and limit growth. This research can be useful for comparing and positioning airlines in the market, based on issues and operational choices.

Abstract:
Purpose: This study investigates the relationships between service efficiency in 5 major cost centres (namely, business orientation, network coverage, physical resources, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), and human resources) and profitability in the global airline industry.Design/methodology/approach: The study integrates the Slack-based Model (SBM) of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) with the Alternating Conditional Expectation (ACE) regression to understand the relationships between an airline’s profitability and its efficiencies in 5 identified operations areas.Findings: Based on the observational data obtained from 75 international airlines, the relationships between operational performances and profitability are found to be curvilinear and contingent on an airline’s operating model.Research limitations/implications: The omission of non-IATA airlines and many low cost carriers may hinder a holistic view of the airline industry.Practical implications: Management can influence the profitability of an airline through its strategic operations decisions that affect an airline’s cost, service quality, and financial structure after the influences of location and size have set the stage. Airlines pursuing cost leadership should seek to increase productivity especially in MRO, human resources and physical resources; whereas airlines pursuing service differentiation may choose to provide quality service at lower efficiencies or pursue an approach to improve quality and efficiencies simultaneously.Originality/value: Identifying operations practices that are consistent with a firm’s competitive priorities is important in the multifaceted service environment today. An integrated SBM-ACE regression model, which permits different input-output mix, variable return to scale and non-linear relationship, is proposed and applied to analyze the profit impact of service efficiencies in the five key operations areas.

Pearson, James. "The competitive strength of Asian network airlines in competing with low-cost carriers and the use of low-cost subsidiaries." Thesis, Loughborough University, 2016. https://dspace.lboro.ac.uk/2134/21847.

Abstract:
While 3.3 billion people flew worldwide in 2014 a large number of these were from developed countries. It is emerging countries which offer the greatest potential for future air traffic growth, with forecasts suggesting that 7.3 billion people will fly by 2034. The greatest proportion of this traffic will be in the Asia-Pacific region where there is already high low-cost carrier penetration. Given increasing price-based competition within short-haul markets, there are many significant challenges in terms of how Asian network airlines respond to LCC competition, and a popular response is the use of low-cost subsidiaries. Thus, the aims of this research are to establish the sources of competitive advantage of Asian airlines generally, and to examine the competitive responses of Asian network airlines and the strategic capabilities of them in competing with low-cost carriers, with a particular focus upon the use of low-cost subsidiaries. This research is underpinned with competitive advantage theory, particularly the resource-based view which concerns the internal environment of firms where each firm possesses a collection of unique resources and capabilities that provide the foundation for competitive strategy. For this research, data were collected from 49 senior airline management personnel using questionnaire surveys, resource surveys, and semi-structured interviews. The data were then analysed using VRIN analysis, the importance and difficulty of 37 competitive responses, strategic capability analysis, and the product and organisational architecture model. The results found that both a strong strategy and stable leadership are crucial. The strategies of Asian network airlines must be flexible to respond appropriately to competitive threats as they materialise, with this responsiveness contributing to the attainment of competitive advantage. Out of an analysed 36 intangible resources, the top resources for competitive advantage and responding to competitive threats for Asian airlines generally are slots, brand, and product and service reputation, with the importance of these based more on being hard to copy than valuable. Each analysed airline business model has a relatively distinct core bundle of intangible resources which explains the internal sources of their competitive advantage. The need for Asian network airlines to strengthen their competitive advantage and their ability to compete is because low-cost carriers impact them in many ways, most notably through a reduction in market share and reduced yields given the key motivation of customers within short-haul markets and economy class is now price and value-for-money. Asian network airlines are most likely to respond to low-cost carriers if they focus upon their core markets, grow their market share, and target the core higher-yielding passengers on which network airlines rely. In such instances, Asian network airlines should respond by focusing more on their brands and meeting the needs of their core targeted market segments. There is a strong positive correlation between profit margin and the strategic capability to compete with low-cost carriers. Yet, Asian network airlines have relatively weak capabilities overall. While Vietnam Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, and Garuda Indonesia are reasonably well placed to compete, network airlines from Northeast Asia, in particular, must strengthen their capabilities especially as Japan, China, and Taiwan are witnessing fast low-cost carrier growth. However, the possession of a strong capability does not mean it is fully or properly leveraged. To compete more effectively with low-cost carriers, the most important competitive responses, based upon analysis of 37 responses, are the ability of management to quickly introduce changes, leveraging brand strength, and increasing aircraft utilisation. Based on the relationship between the importance and difficulty of responses, the most crucial responses for competitive advantage of Asian network airlines are reducing costs to within 30% of LCCs and increasing aircraft utilisation. If achieved, these should lead to meaningful sustained advantage. Low-cost subsidiaries are easier to implement than for network airlines to significantly reduce costs, change to one fleet, or reduce the use of direct distribution, which may explain their popularity within Asia and them being a borderline very essential competitive response. For network airlines, low-cost subsidiaries are a more effective way to compete with low-cost carriers, to participate in the growth of the budget segment, a means of operating uneconomic routes, and to remove unprofitable customers. Network airlines can then focus upon their core market segments and their core competencies. However, their creation is reactive and not proactive which undermines their effectiveness, likewise that low-cost subsidiaries suffer from poor profitability, higher costs, and much smaller size and scale than their key low-cost competitors. This research recommends that Asian network airlines strengthen their existing and primary sources of competitive advantage while pursuing new sources of advantage. While the strategic capabilities of Asian network airlines have strengthened over time, it is essential that they are further strengthened and fully acted upon given increasing competitiveness. The use of low-cost subsidiaries will continue, but it is crucial for themselves and their parent network airlines that they improve their ability to compete and thereby their performance.

This dissertation reports on the factors that contributed to the successful entry strategy of 1time Airline, a low cost carrier, into the South African airline industry as well as its competitive strategies within this context. Research interviews were conducted in November 2005 and research material gathered until end January 2006. Key issues include an evaluation of 1time's business model in relation to other low cost entrants as well as against material sourced through interviews with 1time Airline management, employees and consumers of the airline's product. Porter's Generic Strategies and Five Forces model are used as a framework in evaluating the airline. It is found that Nohria, Joyce and Robertson's "4+2 Formula" is effectively implemented at the airline, but that further implementation of Game Theory in terms of alliances should be investigated for continued success and sustainability.

Abstract:

After the deregulation of the airline industry new actors entered the market and among them were the low-cost airlines. These actors are not involved in the same traditional airline alliance used by the traditional airlines to strengthen their position on the market.

Little research has been made regarding the benefits for low-cost airlines to engage in strategic alliances. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate if low-cost airlines benefit from engaging in strategic alliances or collaborations, and identify possible alliance configurations.

To fulfill the purpose we have used a qualitative method and case studies. Interviews with respondents from two low-cost airlines as well as an airline industry field expert were used to gather information about the thesis subject.

We have concluded that the low-cost airlines in this study benefit from engaging in strategic alliances. The low-cost airlines are using vertical as well as horizontal alliances principally to gain cost-reduction or efficiency benefits. Both cases were against traditional airline alliances due to the high costs involved, and the fact that they do not share the same motives for alliances.

Abstract:
Since the end of World War II, the service sector has expanded to encompass over 80% of the economy of most developed nations. This places an immense importance on the ability to accurately measure service outputs. However, the most precise method of measuring these outputs is still unclear. This thesis examines Service Quality as a measurement of service outputs, and tests this within an industry-specific context: the low-cost sector of the UK airline industry. This is an industry that has been facing serious challenges since market liberalisation began in 1976. This thesis recognises that offering superior quality may allow airlines to gain a competitive advantage; despite this, there is still no preferred method of measuring Service Quality in this specific context. This PhD therefore examines three methods of Service Quality measurement in the context of the low-cost sector of the UK airline industry: a qualitative method (content analysis), a quantitative survey approach (HiQUAL) and an indexing approach (ALSI). The first study provides an in-depth analysis of the determinants of airline quality through a content analysis study. The second study uses a neglected measurement of Service Quality (HiQUAL) to take a quantitative measurement of Service Quality in the low-cost airline industry. The third study uses measurement (ALSI), an indexing approach, to provide an indication of airline quality. The results of this PhD define the determinants of Service Quality in the low-cost airline industry and confirm the hierarchical nature of Service Quality. This PhD also develops a novel objective metric that represents a shift in ontology from subjective to objective measurements of Service Quality.

Abstract:

Vi valde ämnet som handlar om möjligheten att få ett lågkostnadsflygbolag opererande på Karlstad flygplats därför att det är en intressant fråga om regionen skulle gynnas av ett lågkostnadsflyg eller inte så väl som flygplatsens existens. På senare tid har det i media också ofta framkommit att flygplatsen har ekonomiska problem.

Idén till vårt syfte uppkom efter att ha läst rapporten som Handelskammaren i Värmland skrev angående vikten av flygförbindelser till och från Karlstad flygplats för regionen. I den rapporten framkom det att det var önskvärt med ett lågkostnadsflyg från Karlstad flygplats.

Frågan kring ett lågkostnadsflyg från Karlstad Flygplats presenteras genom användning av teorier för risk, uppdragsgivare- uppdragstagareproblemet och beslutstagande. Alla dessa områden är sammanhängande.

Vi intervjuade Göteborg/Säve-, Stockholm/Skavstas-, Jönköpings/Axamo- och Smaland/Växjöflygplats för att få information om aktuell situation på respektive flygplats med eller utan opererande lågkostnadsflyg. Frågorna som ställdes var av liknande karaktär, men det utgjordes en skillnad mellan dem, beroende om de tillhörde gruppen som redan har lågkostnadsflyg eller om de önskar ha ett lågkostnadsflyg.

Vi fann likheter mellan flygplatserna och de ledandes uppfattning i frågan om lågkostnadsflyg. Det visade sig även att det för flygplatsen är kostsamt att ha ett lågkostnadsflyg opererande, men att det däremot är fördelaktigt för regionen. Utöver det bör risken delas mellan fler än en intressent. För att bli framgångsrik måste man göra uppoffringar och lätta på attityden till risk hos intressenterna.


We chose our topic, regarding the possibility to get a low-cost airline operating at Karlstad airport, because it is an interesting question whether the region could benefit from a low cost airline or not as well as the existence of the airport. And lately the airport has been discussed in media.

The idea to our purpose arose after having read the report by Wermland Chamber of Commerce regarding the importance of flight connections to and from Karlstad airport, for the region. In this report it appeared that it was desirable with a low-cost airline at Karlstad airport.

This topic is presented by applying theories about an interested party model, risk, agency theory, decision making and growth. All these areas are somehow connected.

We interviewed persons in managing positions at Göteborg/Säve, Stockholm/Skavsta, Jönköping/Axamo and Smaland/Växjö airport, who gave information about the actual situation at their airport respectively. The first two airports have operating low-cost airlines and the last two have not. We also interview partners in Värmland to get their view of the situation at Karlstad airport. The questions were roughly the same, with a difference made if they belonged to the group that has a low-cost airline or if they belonged to the group without a low-cost airline.

We found that there are similarities between the airports. And it turned out that having a low-cost airline operating at an airport is a costly business for the airport, but it seems to be advantageous for the region. And that the risk ought to be diversified between more than one interested parties. In order to be successful you have to make sacrifices and lighten up all parties’ attitudes to risk.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the determinants of air route profitability in the European Union and the cooperating countries of Norway and Switzerland. Building on the assumption that only profitable routes are served, I develop a set of probit models that specify route service as a function of route characteristics, airline networks' attributes, airline partnerships and competition. Estimation results show that route profitability increases with population size and decreases with flight distance and the time efficiency of car travel relative to air travel. An airline's airport presence, that is, its share of airport operations, exerts a significant, positive effect on its route profitability, and so does airport presence of its group or allied partners. Competitive effects are asymmetric across airline business types. This paper's contribution to existing airline-route profitability studies lies in accounting for airline cooperation, controlling for an alternative mode of transport, and using EU data for estimation.

Abstract:
While Low Cost Carriers (LCCs) are prevalent and mature in Europe and North America, the business model of LCCs has only recently started to take hold in Asia, and in recent years, more and more airlines would like to operate the LCC model on Asian region routes. The research examines whether or not LCCs are suitable for operation in Taiwan, as well as developing airline strategies in respond to some recent changes in airline market and political conditions in the country. Firstly, the research illustrates not only the current regulation and marketing situations between Taiwan and other Asian countries, but also reviews the historical data of passenger numbers and load factors of the main airlines since the year 2000. Secondly, the research surveys the views of three different interviewees, CAA Taiwan, airline executives, and passengers to analyse what they expect from an LCC. Thirdly, in order to maximise an LCC's efficiency, the research establishes a yield management system for LCCs and uses it for modifying the operation and precisely calculating operating cost. In addition, it also studies the successful and failed cases in Europe and the U. S. to understand the key points to success in a competitive market. Although the current environment in Taiwan may not be ideally suitable for LCC development, Taiwanese airlines are still able to learn how to reduce costs and improve their sales model from the experience of the LCC revolution. Moreover, the air link between Taiwan and China is likely to be a significant potential market in the future

Abstract:
The actuality of the topic was the fact that nowadays, the aviation has become an important part in connecting people. It is enabling it to reach almost anywhere all over the world. With the entry of low-cost airlines, aviation has become available to a larger segment, which has stimulated the industry. During the elaboration of the subject, it became a fact that inquiry of the entire supply chain of an airline also requires information that companies are reluctant to share with the outside world. So, the paper is examining the value chain according to the information available. It is involved to well-known European airline to the investigation - a low cost airline. Over the past few decades, the negative changes in the global climate have been increasingly occupied by people; that’s why it is prompting companies around the world to take the issue more seriously and impact of their company’s ecological footprint. The research provides a comprehensive analysis of the value chain of the aviation, focusing on sustainability, illustrating the complexity of the airline supply chain. While current forecasts make positive predictions for civil aviation, changes in environmental impacts could radically change this sensitive industry at any time.

Abstract:
Reducing turbulent skin-friction drag is a subject of great interest due to the potential benefits. These benefits are reflected in applications such as aircraft and vehicles for which skin-friction drag constitutes a significant fraction of the total drag. For example, commercial airliners have up to 50% of their fuel consumption associated with turbulent drag. Thus, any drag reduction would result in substantial savings with regards to the operational cost of the airline industry. In this study, we investigated the effects of a spanwise body force on reducing skin-friction drag in turbulent channel flows. To this end, we performed direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flows with an applied spanwise body force. The body force consists of four control parameters: the amplitude of excitation, penetration depth, period of oscillation, and wavelength. A series of DNS were performed to investigate the effect of these parameters on drag reduction. We observed different levels of drag reduction and the magnitude of skin-friction varied considerably. The DNS results showed that the skin friction is reduced by as much as 20% with values for penetration lengths from 0.03 to 0.09 and periods between 10 and 20. An optimal combination of the four adjustable control parameters is yet to be concluded. In addition to skin-friction reduction, we found an intriguing observation from a time series of wall shear stress. When the wall shear stress is sufficiently lower than its mean value (i.e., low-drag intervals), the spanwise body force appears to significantly affect turbulent dynamics to make the wall shear stress not as chaotic as in other intervals. Specifically, the standard deviations of the peak-to-peak magnitudes of the wall shear stress during low-drag intervals are significantly lower than that of other intervals. This observation could be crucial in that it may lead to a further fundamental understanding of the drag reduction process. Moreover, it may aid in the development of more effective control schemes by way of anticipating that low-drag intervals are promising targets for drag reduction.

Abstract:
The increasing world population, higher accessibility to air transportation, coupled with new low-cost airline models has resulted in an unprecedented increase in demand for civil aviation. The industry is currently experiencing a global increase of operational civil aircraft at a rate of 5–6% annually. This growth suggests a vibrant future for the industry, however, the environmental implications and the footprint is worth considerable attention given the expected scale of growth in the industry and the possible side effects to human health. The stakeholders involved, some of which include: airports and airline operators, jet engine and airframe manufacturers and various government bodies, are introducing measures in order to mitigate the increase in certain emissions and hence their impact. This study focuses on one of the many existing approaches targeting the reduction in gaseous emissions, predominantly nitrogen oxides (NOx). This is through compressor water injection that is estimated to reduce NOx emissions by almost half under certain ambient conditions and water-to-air ratio. Apart from reviewing this technology, the study, more importantly, presents the ideas in relation to other major existing approaches/concepts. It would be observed that compressor water injection can be more readily applied to the existing infrastructure when compared to other approaches. This technique is one of the most promising methods for reducing NOx emissions, an area of particular importance given that modern engines, though more thermally efficient, operate at higher pressure ratios and flame temperature, both of which enhance nitrogen oxides formation. One of the main contributions of this paper is the categorisation of existing approaches focused on reducing aircraft-borne airport emissions. Different technologies and operational changes are classified according to the key pollutants that they target with respect to the landing and takeoff cycle based on 11 different engine types. These gaseous-emissions mitigating approaches are analyzed based on their individual merits, limitations and feasibilities. Compressor water injection is re-introduced here as a more readily applicable solution despite its technological challenges, many of which can be better resolved with today’s knowledge.
