Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity”
INTRODUCTION
Airlines that use same aircraft has homogenous fleet.
Example of fleet homogeneity: the best example of fleet
homogeneity is low cost carriers which we
The Ryanair airline has only one kind of aircraft which
is Boeing 73H who served all the destinations.
Technically it has not possible for flag carrier airlines because
they have served short, medium and long hauls. Aircrafts that
used by airlines for short haul are not feasible to use it for long
haul.
Why homogeneity?
Low maintenance cost.
Pilot training is easy.
Buy aircrafts from secondary market.

AIRLINES SELECTED FOR RESEARCH
Airlines Type of Aircrafts Number of Aircrafts Destinations served
Emirates 6 256 140
British airline 26 273 183
Lufthansa airline 16 293 220
American airlines 26 956 350
Oman airline 12 51 30
Turkish airline 12 277 302
Qatar airline 11 212 150
Etihad airline 12 112 84
✔These airlines have been selected for the following reasons;
• Easy access to data (annual reports includes maintenance cost, fuel cost and other valuable
information)
• OAG database (all the research is based on 2017 (Jan-Dec) flights of 8 airlines)
Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity”
• How homogenous the fleet of
these airlines are?
• If there is a heterogeneity in
fleet. What will be the solution
to make the fleet homogenous?
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This research is based on the following variables which
helps us to understand how much the airlines fleet is
homogenous.
➢ cost per available seat kilometer
➢ Number of frequencies
➢ Average stage length
➢ HHI index
➢ Number of seats
➢ Correlations
➢ Type of aircrafts
➢ Fuel capacity
➢ Range of aircrafts
➢ Age of aircraft
➢ Gap analysis
Fleet homogeneity is based on categorization
of distances. Categorization is based on short
haul (0-1500 km), medium short haul (1501-
4000 km), medium long haul (4001-5500) and
long haul (greater than 5501) respectively.
these categories are divided so that we can
see how airlines used their aircraft for
different distances.
Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity”
VARIABLE USED IN THE RESEARCH
Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity”
Number of frequencies: how many times aircrafts s used for the routes in a specific range.
Available seat miles (ASM) or Available seat kilometers (ASK) airline passenger carrying
capacity. It is equal to the number of seats available multiplied by the number of miles or
kilometers flown.
ASK=DISTANCE*FREQUANCY*SEATS
“The Herfindahl-Hirschman index (HHI) is a commonly accepted measure of market
concentration. It is calculated by squaring the market share of each firm competing in a market
and then summing the resulting numbers. It can range from close to zero to 10,000”.
Average stage length: average stage length is calculated on the basis of available seat and
distance covered by an aircraft.
Number of seats: airlines have the right o customize the aircrafts so different airlines using
same aircrafts could have different seat capacity.
Fuel capacity: possible suggestions are based on fuel efficiency and number of seats aircraft have.

The following extract of the bullet-points which have been published in a presentation within the IATA 2nd Airline
Cost Conference (ACC) in 2014 summarize the main points of cost savings, and also show up further cost saving
potentials for an (low cost) airline.
Aircraft Costs

Airport cost
In our case:
Correlations: (Fuel cost, Fleet age and Maintenance cost)
CORRELATION BETWEEN FLEET AGE AND FUEL = APPROX 0.45
CORRELATION BETWEEN FLEET AGE AND MAINTENANCE COST = 0.79
Gap Analysis
Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity”
• The aim of gap analysis was to check how
Airlines would change their aircrafts to reach
homogeneity and what incentives will they
get in order to reach homogenous in term of
manufacturer.
• This incentives would be in term of seat
capacity and fuel consumption.
• We will also see that what is the reason of
heterogeneity?
Factors to be considered:
1. Average age of an aircraft
2. Number of seats
3. Fuel consumption (gal/hr.)

• DH8 has been grounded by American airline.
• Because of the greater differences in seat and fuel homogeneity is not achievable.

• For this haul this haul the shares of Boeing and airbuses are same so its not possible to achieve
homogeneity.
• More over, there is a seat gap and fuel gap between Embraer, Canadair and McDonnell with Boeing and
airbus.

SUMMARY OF OTHER AIRLINES
0-1500 km:
• Qatar airways, British: No replacement
• Oman airways: there is an alternatives of A330 which is 787.
• Turkish airways have alternative of A320, A321, A322 AND A333.
their average ages are high and even the new alternatives Boeing
73H, 73J, 788 and 789 has consume less fuel and have the advantage
of more seat capacity.
• Lufthansa airways: 744 has the alternative of A346. consumes less
fuel and has 10 seats more. While CR90, E90 AND E95 a have less
seat capacity which is usually used for short hauls.
4000-5500 km:
• Qatar airways, British: No replacement
• Oman airways, there is an alternatives of A330 which is 787.
• Turkish airways have alternative of A332 and A333 is 788 and 789
their average ages are high and even the new alternative Boeing has
consume less fuel and have the advantage of more seat capacity.
While no alternative of A343
• Lufthansa airways: 744 and 74 has the alternative of A346 and A359.
consumes less fuel and has 10 and 5 seats more respectively. So we
can totally make this haul homogenous for Lufthansa.
1500-4000 km:
• Qatar airways, British: No replacement
• Oman airways, there is an alternatives of A330 which is 787.
• Turkish airways has an alternative of 73G. The best alternative
for this aircraft is A319, consumes less fuel and has the
advantage of having 4 more seats.
• Lufthansa airways: 744 has the alternative of A346. consumes
less fuel and has 10 seats more. While CR90, E90 AND E95 a
have less seat capacity which is usually used for short hauls.
>5500 km:
• British, Oman airways: No alternative.
• Qatar airways: there is an alternative of A332 and A346. the
alternative is Boeing 767 and 77w. Consumes 128 gal/hr. and
132 gal/hr. less fuel as compared to the A223 and A346.
• Turkish airways have alternative of A320, A321, A322 AND
A333. their average ages are high and even the new alternative
Boeing has consume less fuel and have the advantage of more
seat capacity.
• Lufthansa airways: 744 has the alternative of A346. consumes
less fuel and has 10 seats more..

Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity”
CONCLUSION
• Fleet homogeneity exists in airline industry. those airlines who are serving short, medium and long hauls.
for example: to serve long destinations E90 with 80 seats aircraft is not possible to serve even tough they will have
full fuel.
• Airlines are different type of aircrafts in order to reduce fuel consumption and seat capacity as our research
described (gap analysis).
• There are also many airlines who are using old aircrafts which consumes more fuel, they should replaced it by
the new one and make the system more homogenous.
• Mostly airlines from middle east used long haul aircraft like A380-8 for short hauls.
Reason: their one of the best served destinations are from Asia (Sialkot, Pakistan) and Indian regions. Emirates have
just started A380 to Pakistan because of the high load.
• American airlines are using 24 type of aircrafts for short haul and their average stage length is about 1600 km.
which chows that American airlines are connected more within American (intercity) as compared to
intercontinental.

FLEET HOMOGENEITY Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI DI BERGAMO Department of Management, Information and Production Engineering Master’s degree program in Management Engineering Class LM-31 - Management Engineering Supervisor: Prof. Paolo Malighetti Master’s degree Thesis Sahibzada Hassam Farooq Matricula n. 1042365 ACADEMIC YEAR 2017 / 2018
  • 2. Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” Introduction Airlines Selected for Research Research Question Research Methodology Research Results Conclusion References CONTENTS
  • 3. Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” INTRODUCTION Airlines that use same aircraft has homogenous fleet. Example of fleet homogeneity: the best example of fleet homogeneity is low cost carriers which we The Ryanair airline has only one kind of aircraft which is Boeing 73H who served all the destinations. Technically it has not possible for flag carrier airlines because they have served short, medium and long hauls. Aircrafts that used by airlines for short haul are not feasible to use it for long haul. Why homogeneity? Low maintenance cost. Pilot training is easy. Buy aircrafts from secondary market.
  • 4. Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” AIRLINES SELECTED FOR RESEARCH Airlines Type of Aircrafts Number of Aircrafts Destinations served Emirates 6 256 140 British airline 26 273 183 Lufthansa airline 16 293 220 American airlines 26 956 350 Oman airline 12 51 30 Turkish airline 12 277 302 Qatar airline 11 212 150 Etihad airline 12 112 84 ✔These airlines have been selected for the following reasons; • Easy access to data (annual reports includes maintenance cost, fuel cost and other valuable information) • OAG database (all the research is based on 2017 (Jan-Dec) flights of 8 airlines)
  • 5. Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” • How homogenous the fleet of these airlines are? • If there is a heterogeneity in fleet. What will be the solution to make the fleet homogenous?
  • 6. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY This research is based on the following variables which helps us to understand how much the airlines fleet is homogenous. ➢ cost per available seat kilometer ➢ Number of frequencies ➢ Average stage length ➢ HHI index ➢ Number of seats ➢ Correlations ➢ Type of aircrafts ➢ Fuel capacity ➢ Range of aircrafts ➢ Age of aircraft ➢ Gap analysis Fleet homogeneity is based on categorization of distances. Categorization is based on short haul (0-1500 km), medium short haul (1501- 4000 km), medium long haul (4001-5500) and long haul (greater than 5501) respectively. these categories are divided so that we can see how airlines used their aircraft for different distances. Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity”
  • 7. VARIABLE USED IN THE RESEARCH Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” Number of frequencies: how many times aircrafts s used for the routes in a specific range. Available seat miles (ASM) or Available seat kilometers (ASK) airline passenger carrying capacity. It is equal to the number of seats available multiplied by the number of miles or kilometers flown. ASK=DISTANCE*FREQUANCY*SEATS “The Herfindahl-Hirschman index (HHI) is a commonly accepted measure of market concentration. It is calculated by squaring the market share of each firm competing in a market and then summing the resulting numbers. It can range from close to zero to 10,000”. Average stage length: average stage length is calculated on the basis of available seat and distance covered by an aircraft. Number of seats: airlines have the right o customize the aircrafts so different airlines using same aircrafts could have different seat capacity. Fuel capacity: possible suggestions are based on fuel efficiency and number of seats aircraft have.

  • 16. Gap Analysis Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” • The aim of gap analysis was to check how Airlines would change their aircrafts to reach homogeneity and what incentives will they get in order to reach homogenous in term of manufacturer. • This incentives would be in term of seat capacity and fuel consumption. • We will also see that what is the reason of heterogeneity? Factors to be considered: 1. Average age of an aircraft 2. Number of seats 3. Fuel consumption (gal/hr.)

  • 28. Master thesis on “Fleet homogeneity” CONCLUSION • Fleet homogeneity exists in airline industry. those airlines who are serving short, medium and long hauls. for example: to serve long destinations E90 with 80 seats aircraft is not possible to serve even tough they will have full fuel. • Airlines are different type of aircrafts in order to reduce fuel consumption and seat capacity as our research described (gap analysis). • There are also many airlines who are using old aircrafts which consumes more fuel, they should replaced it by the new one and make the system more homogenous. • Mostly airlines from middle east used long haul aircraft like A380-8 for short hauls. Reason: their one of the best served destinations are from Asia (Sialkot, Pakistan) and Indian regions. Emirates have just started A380 to Pakistan because of the high load. • American airlines are using 24 type of aircrafts for short haul and their average stage length is about 1600 km. which chows that American airlines are connected more within American (intercity) as compared to intercontinental.
