5. Define low cost carrier
A low-cost carrier or low-cost airline (also known as a no-frills, discount or
budget carrier or airline) is an airline that generally has lower fares and less
comforts. To make up for revenue lost in decreased ticket prices, the airline
may charge for extras like food, priority boarding, seat allocating, and baggage
etc.
6. Advantage of low cost carrier
It saves you precious time
This is one advantage that many find irresistible. Time is a very precious
commodity today, and if you can fly for just a small increase in price compared
to a train journey, then it is definitely worthwhile.
It promotes great vacations
Travel costs are a major part of anyone‟s holiday plans. when you find low
cost flights to your favorite destination, this mean you have more to spend and
therefore makes your vacation better. Uno finding low cost flights to your
favorite destination, you would be thrilled because you get to have a great
holiday.
It is extremely convenient
One of the most important of the advantages of low cost flights is the
convenience of travelling. You do not need to worry anymore about long and
tiresome journeys by bus, train or car. This would invariably involve countless
days on road, living out of a suitcase and staying in uncomfortable hotels. The
flight does away with all this inconvenience.
7. It saves money
Many people compare only the flight ticket cost to the gasoline bill or bus
ticket cost (or any other form of travel you choose). the difference would still
be quite a lot, and therefore are happy that by choosing alternative
modes of travel they are saving some money. But is it so really.
The advantages of low cost flights
The advantage of low cost flights also include the fact that you would be able
to cover more ground and therefore helps you to be more productive. Besides,
flying is fun and everybody Should experience it at one time or other and the
low cost flights offer you just the right opportunity to do so.
8. Disadvantages of Low Cost carrier
Extra payment for baggage:
Travelers must realize that practically everything apart from the actual flight
ticket costs extra. they will need to pay extra for hold baggage, and it cost one
person nearly £100 to transport golf clubs. There is no charge for those
travelling with only hand luggage, but this is becoming more difficult to do,
owing to so many recent restrictions on hand luggage for airline flights.
The high cost of food:
Food and drink will not be provided on the plane unless the traveler pays.
Some passengers have complained about the high cost of meals on board these
flights. It is quite possible to take one‟s own food on the flight, but again,
carrying drink may be a problem due to restrictions on liquids which can be
carried in hand luggage.
Specific seat
With many of these airlines one cannot book a specific seat, and checking in
can resemble a rug by scrum, with everyone trying to get a good seat. It can
seem more like bus travel in the rush hour than airline travel!
9. Changing passenger details
Changing passenger details and/or dates can prove very expensive or even
impossible. It is essential to read the small print before booking.
Quick changes of prices
Prices can change very quickly, even going up while the passenger is booking
on-line. Costs need to be checked carefully.
Passenger worrying about economic situation
Finally, with the recent worrying economic situation, more airlines are
expected to go bust. Many of these will be the low cost airlines. Passengers
need to make sure that they are aware of their rights if the airline does collapse
after they have booked a holiday.
No frills:
Overall, 'no frills' airlines should be treated with care. They do indeed offer
bargains, But travelling with them is not the same as booking a flight with a
more established airline. It‟s worth bearing in mind that sometimes passengers
get exactly what they pay for - no more, no less!

Once the traveller has been transferred out of his or her own
wheelchair, it is either stowed on board or taken to an area where it
can be prepared for stowage in the baggage compartment.
In this case, it is either transported in an elevator in the terminal, or
carried down the exterior stairs of the loading bridge.
Wet cell batteries are disconnected and removed from power
wheelchairs, then placed in specially designed boxes.
Wheelchairs are usually put into heavy plastic bags, specially
designed for the purpose, and positioned in a cargo container.

Once in an aircraft seat, responsibility for providing service to the
traveller rests with the flight attendants.
They will reposition the traveller, if requested; help with eating (e.g.,
opening packages, cutting food, etc.), but not feeding; transfer the
traveller to an on-board wheelchair, and push him or her to the
lavatory; and stow and retrieve carry-on luggage.
On-board services do not include assistance in the lavatory.
29. Disembarkation procedure for
wheel chair passenger
On arriving at the destination, the traveller goes through the reverse
procedure to his or her departure, leaving the aircraft last, rather
than first.
Travellers with manual wheelchairs receive their own wheelchairs at
the aircraft door.
Users of power wheelchairs must wait for them to be re-assembled.
They may request to have the chair brought to the aircraft door, or
can retrieve it at or near the baggage collection area.
After the aircraft departs the airport, notify the destination airport for
relevant information for follow up service.
