The Civil Aviation Industry in India has decided to introduce easy entry and exit rules for regional airlines to encourage greater participation. Airlines operating on regional routes will be allowed to cease operations if they deem operations unprofitable after a set period. This is expected to lead to a surge in the number of new airlines with small fleets and aircraft. The goal is to enhance ease of doing business while respecting market forces with minimal government interference.
The document discusses the different elements of cost for airlines. There are three main categories of costs: 1) Direct operating costs which are related to airplanes and passengers, 2) Indirect operating costs which are not directly related to flight operations but charged to passengers, and 3) Overhead costs which are managerial expenses for sales, marketing, and human resources needed to operate flights smoothly. Understanding these different cost elements is important for both low-cost carriers providing cheap flights and full-service carriers offering luxury travel.
This document discusses various pricing tactics used by airlines, including fare actions that change actual fare levels and adjustments to fare rules and restrictions. It provides examples of different types of fare actions like introductory fares for new routes, system-wide sales during weak periods, and segment-specific pricing. Examples of adjusting rules include changing advance purchase requirements, minimum/maximum stay durations, and directional pricing. The objective of these tactics is to maximize revenue by selling seats at the highest fares possible while balancing price-sensitive customers.
This document discusses key metrics used to analyze airline economics, including available seat kilometers (ASK), revenue passenger kilometers (RPK), load factor, yield, and unit cost. It explains how these metrics are calculated and used in the basic airline profit equation of RPM x Yield - ASM x Unit Cost to determine profitability. Examples are provided to illustrate calculating yield from a given flight scenario and how airlines determine ticket prices based on yield management.
The Indian civil aviation industry is the 9th largest in the world and is growing rapidly. It is expected to require over 1300 new aircraft worth $150 billion in the next 20 years. While passenger traffic has quadrupled over the last decade and is projected to reach 180 million by 2020, most airlines are struggling financially. Factors such as high fuel costs, taxes, and interest rates have led to losses for all major airlines except Indigo in 2010-11. Reforms around foreign investment, tax structure, and regional connectivity are needed to improve the sustainability and growth of the industry.

The document discusses the plight of Pakistan's aviation industry and PIA in particular. It notes that PIA is struggling financially with accumulated losses of Rs. 360 billion and is at risk of bankruptcy. It argues that the National Aviation Policy (NAP-2015) is not solely to blame for the industry's problems as claimed by some critics. While NAP-2015 aimed to boost the industry, wholehearted implementation has been lacking. The document suggests conducting a performance audit of PIA and PCAA followed by a turnaround plan with international specialists, as has worked for other airlines. Timely action is needed to address weaknesses and stop the bleeding before it's too late.
Aviationizing Pakistan - Bridging the gap between the Aviation Industry and the Academia, through an extensive awareness opportunity for the youth as well as general populace. Indeed, the Human Resource demand far exceeds the current supply of trained, educated and groomed professionals. This Expo being held at PAF Museum on September 25, 2016 is a step in that direction. Education, training and HR Development is the next logical step to reach our goal of enhancing Aviation, that in turn enhances socio-economic growth of the country.
Recent developments in Aviation & Aerospace portend a transformational change in the future of air travel. A quantum jump in technology, safety, efficiency, speed, economy and customer centricity are anticipated. Since Aviation has a positive correlation to a nation's GDP, it continues to be a catalyst and a potent business enabler. Therefore, HR will have to trained, educated and developed to cater for the expected fast and positive cultural change that is destined to come sooner than what most of us can imagine. Education to Aviationize the youth is becoming more important than ever. Aviationizing is a new term coined to express the following concept:
Aviationizing is a comprehensive process of bringing about a holistic cultural change through Aviation Awareness, Education and HR Development to achieve socio-economic growth & prosperity for the nation.

This document discusses different types of research studies and methodologies:
- Exploratory research studies aim to gain familiarity with a phenomenon.
- Descriptive research studies portray characteristics of individuals, situations, or groups.
- Diagnostic research studies determine the frequency of occurrences of phenomena.
- Hypothesis-testing research studies test causal relationships between variables.
It also covers research methodology, a priori vs. a posteriori knowledge, ontology, epistemology, paradigms, deductive vs. inductive reasoning, and includes instructions for writing a problem statement and reading an assigned research paper.
Airline A offered discounted fares of 35% off with no-frills service, including removing free food and drinks. They claimed this attracted 56% new passengers, increasing revenue by $4 million. However, Airline B's study found only 14% of discounted passengers were new, and it lost $543,000 in revenue. Airline B and others challenged Airline A's survey methodology and findings. The experiences of Airline A and B differed, with Airline A claiming success but B reporting losses from the discount fares.
This document discusses demand and elasticity of demand in the airline industry. It defines a change in demand as a shift of the entire demand curve, either right or left, as opposed to a change in quantity demanded. Demand can be elastic or inelastic depending on how responsive passengers are to price changes. Elastic demand means a given percentage change in price results in a larger percentage change in quantity demanded, while inelastic demand means a smaller percentage change in quantity demanded for a given percentage change in price. Factors like competition, distance, business vs leisure travel, and time influence how elastic demand is for air travel.
Price is the most important factor influencing demand for airline seats and cargo space since deregulation. Economists have emphasized the role of price in determining demand levels. Pricing in the airline industry is complex due to the industry's transition from regulation to deregulation. Demand is defined as the quantity consumers are willing and able to purchase at various prices over time. There is an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded known as the law of demand. While price is key, other non-price factors like passenger preferences, the number of passengers in a market, passenger income levels, and competitors' prices also influence airline demand.

This document provides data on the top 10 airlines in the world from 2009 to 2013 based on number of passengers carried. It also defines three key metrics for evaluating airline productivity and costs: revenue per employee, which measures labor productivity; seat density, which measures average seating configuration and economies of scale; and stage-length, which measures average distance flown per departure.
ACMI stands for Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance. This document refers to different types of aircraft leasing agreements, specifically wet lease and dry lease. A wet lease provides aircraft, crew, maintenance, and insurance while a dry lease only provides the aircraft.
Management involves achieving organizational goals through five key functions: planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling. Goals are broad intentions while objectives are more precise and concrete measures that can be used to validate if a goal has been achieved. The five functions of management include planning work, organizing resources, staffing positions, directing employee activities, and controlling performance.
Aviation has experienced tremendous growth over the past 40 years, with passenger numbers increasing 10 times and cargo volumes growing 14 times despite challenges from economic recessions, terrorism, and disease outbreaks. Major expansion has occurred since the early 2000s, with passenger and cargo traffic continuing to rise each year through 2017.
An article written for those who want to know the dynamics of aviation; how it can transform the lives of people, bring about a positive cultural change and help nations grow and flourish, socially and economically. Enjoy!
