The Commercial Airline Industry Has Witnessed A Steady...
After a century of perpetual development [1], the commercial airline industry has witnessed a steady
increase in airplane passenger capacity [2]. The industry itself is a notable economic force, from the
perspectives of both operations and its impacts on relevant industries such as aircraft construction
and tourism [3]. Different scales of wealth has led to market segmentations between airline
companies with dissimilar objectives and consumer focus: premium airlines like Singapore Airlines
offering top–notch service, comfort, and quality at a higher price whilst low–cost airlines such as
easyJet are catering to consumers that prefer economical flights.
Nevertheless, despite contrasting consumer targets, an underlying system is needed by airlines to run
functionally. This primary system comprises principal inputs like airplanes, crews (pilots, flight
attendants, ground staffs, etc) and data (airline 's website, check–in counters, etc), inputs are the
components that are being utilised during the process of creating the product or good [31]. It also
comprises principal output which is the customers – mainly, the passengers on the airplane.
Competitive priorities are defined as the dimensions that a business 's production system must
possess to support the demands of the markets in which the business wishes to compete [4].
Undoubtedly, EasyJet's most imperative competitive priorities are its punctuality of flights,
emphasis on safety measures, and the low fares for its

Asian Cultures And American Cultures Essay
Culture: Earth is bigger than what most people think; it consists of 7 continents, 7 seas, and 196
different countries. Taking that into consideration, our earth currently is supporting over 7 billion
people worldwide. That is 7 billion people who are different and individuals who share different
thoughts, ideas, backgrounds, and cultures. Cultures are very unique as they are different from
country to country. Some adopt cultures that society accept as the norm, while others adopt different
types of cultures; cultures that not many people, especially those outside from the country, can see
eye to eye and would sometimes find them rather 'extreme'. When comparing Asian cultures and
American cultures side by side, we can easily identify the many differences between the two. For
one, Asian cultures are less open, more traditional and conservative in comparison to Americans.
While Americans promote liberty, independence, and values individualism; Asian countries, on the
other hand, are more fixated in keeping to the custom. Knowing this, it is not surprising to see Asian
countries have a more rigid and structured form of society compared to the Western counterparts.
The values, business structures and even priorities are different between the two and can easily be
distinguished. Singapore is a good example on the contrasting differences and representation of the

Essay On Mas Selamat
The escape of Mas Selamat was one of the major political scandals that occurred in Singapore,
which involved the one and only prison break of a highly dangerous terrorist.
Mas Selamat bin Kastari began his involvement in terrorism in the early 90s when he joined a
precursor movement to the Jemaah Islamiah (also known as the JI) group. An Indonesian–born
Singaporean, he headed to Afghanistan for training, where he devoted his time and attention to
gaining knowledge of the Taliban system of governance in his early thirties. He was also suspected
to have devised the plot to bomb Singapore Changi Airport in January 2002, followed by the
planning of hijacking a plane scheduled from Bangkok and crashing it into Singapore Changi

On 1 April 2009, Mas Selamat was arrested by the Malaysian authorities in Johor. The operation
consisting personnel from Royal Malaysian Police, Special Branch and Special Actions unit broke
through the doors and rushed into the house when Mas Selamat refused to surrender when ordered
by the team. The news was then announced to the public through the Singapore media on 8 May
2009, which later was confirmed by both the Singapore and Malaysian governments. Mas Selamat
was being held under the Internal Security Act by the Malaysian government, based on the ground
that Mas Selamat was scheming a plan leading to the arrest.
Mas Selamat was deported back to Singapore for detention under the Internal Security Act on 24

The Low Cost Airline: Airasia 2
The Low Cost Airline: AirAsia
A study of opportunities, challenges and critical success factors
LGT 3007 Air Transport Logistics
Introduction
History of low cost airlines
The low–cost concept became a moneymaker in the United States, where it was pioneered in the
1970s by Southwest Airlines, the model for budget carriers elsewhere like Ryanair and easyJet in
Europe.
Definition of low cost airlines
A low cost airline generally has many features that differentiate it from the traditional carriers.
These features include ticketless travel, online ticket sales, no international offices, no frequent flyer
points, no free food and beverages, no inflight magazines, no club lounges, use of secondary city

Thailand market.
4.Malaysian government support
The Malaysian government supported the establishment of AirAsia in 2001 to help boost the under–
used Kuala Lumpur International Airport. AirAsia 's flights from Senai are meant to develop Johor
into a transport hub to rival Singapore. AirAsia, therefore, can provide an alternative route to travel
to Bangkok, by using Senai Airport in Johor Bahru, in southern Malaysia.
Opportunities faced by AirAsia in light of internal development
1.Issue of IPO
Kamarudin Meranun, AirAsia 's Executive Director announced the appointment of Credit Suisse
First Boston (CSFB) and RHB Sakura Merchant Bankers (RHB) as the bookrunners for the

The Impact of Globalization on Qantas Airlines Marketing...
Globalisation is having a significant impact on marketing. This is because a business, by distributing
itself across international borders makes its product more readily available to international
customers and creates employment opportunities in the country it has moved to. To understand the
impacts, globalisation, marketing (particularly market segmentation), global marketing strategies
and general history of Qantas need to be examined.
Qantas is the oldest airline in the English speaking world. It was founded by the three aviation
pioneers Hudson Fysh, Paul McGinness and Fergus McMaster as the Queensland and Northern
Territory Aerial Service in 1920 and has grown from one aircraft which offered air taxi services and
joyrides to a ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Qantas' situational analysis (SWOT) is the first step in the marketing process whereby the strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the airline are identified. The airline's strengths include:
Being part of the Oneworld alliance, having a high safety record, being a globally recognised airline
through the use of branding and the flying kangaroo logo, purchasing the latest aircraft thus
updating technology and staying level with international competitors and the final strong success of
Qantas has come by operating out of some of the world's major air travel hubs such as Los Angeles
International Airport, London's Heathrow Airport, Singapore's Changi Airport and Sydney
Kingsford Smith International providing an excellent range of customers.
Qantas' main weaknesses come from the high risk nature of airlines (possibility of crashes and large
scale incidents), the complexity of the aircraft they buy which could lead to costs of re–training
pilots to fly that particular aircraft and may lead to higher labour and the recent string of incidents
have undoubtedly hindered Qantas' image. One of the most recent incidents occurred while a
reasonably new Qantas A380 was flying from Singapore to Sydney when it experienced engine and
hydraulic problems forcing it to hastily turn back and make an emergency landing in Singapore.

It needs to hire staff from around the world that has the right talent and fits the organisation. This
will lead to several issues such as cultural difference and managing the different expectations of
their staff. With a global workforce, the airlines in Singapore will face a difficult task in training
their staff due to their different backgrounds. With more airlines operating in Singapore, the industry
could face competition and difficulty in hiring staff.
An airline in Singapore will not just face competition for staff from other airlines operating in
Singapore but also from other airlines around the world. This is due to the emerging trend of the
willingness of the current workforce to work and live overseas. This could be attributed to the
prospect of learning a different culture and the ability to gain experience in a different country.
With the fierce competition from the numerous airlines and the fact that Singapore is a small
country with high living standards, another staffing issue affecting the airline industry in Singapore
is retaining staff. This can be a difficult task as the current workforce will look not only their salary

Safety Management System (SMS) can be defined as "a systematic approach to managing safety,
including the necessary organizational structures, accountabilities, policies and procedures" (Safety
Management Manual, 2013). It is designed to identify hazards, analysing and collecting data and
manage safety risks encountered during the delivery of its services (Safety Management Manual,
2013).
According to Safety Management Manual (2013), the fundamental Safety Management System
(SMS) framework consists of four main components and twelve sub elements. These are the 4
components and 12 sub–elements:
i) Safety policy and objectives
–Management commitments and responsibilities
–Safety accountabilities
–Appointment of key safety personnel
–Coordination of emergency response planning

The Near Crash Of The Qantas A380
QF32– THE NEAR CRASH OF THE QANTAS A380 OVER SINGAPORE
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Airbus A380, one of the largest passenger aircraft in the world, made its debut commercial
flight with Singapore Airlines flying from Singapore to Sydney in October 2007. Qantas Flight 32
was the scheduled passenger flight of the A380 fleet which suffered an uncontained engine rotor
failure on November 4, 2010 and made an emergency landing at Changi Airport.
The UERF was caused by the crack present in the oil feed pipe which developed over a period of
time due to fatigue. The crack grew to a size which allowed the oil in the pipe to be released in the
HP/IP buffer space, during the occurrence flight. There was severe damage caused to the flight.
However, the robust design and structural strength of the jet sustained the damage which might have
destroyed the airlines of the past decade.
The crew members of Qantas displayed excellent skills in managing the incident and the high
standards of piloting culture saved QF32 from a catastrophic crash which enabled Qantas to keep up
the brand name and protect its values of 'safety of customers'. The management decided to ground
the fleet of A380s for further inspection after the incident.

Aid For Airline And Its Impact On The Tourism Industry
Aid for Airline?
Qantas airlines are an iconic Australian business, which has heavily shaped the tourism industry.
However in the 2013–14 financial year, (Qantas, 2014, pg.1) due to falls in revenue, growing
competition and high expenses the airline reported a 2.8 billion dollar loss. (Mccrann, 2014) It was
then that the company felt it required government support to assist them in getting back on their feet.
Commonly referred to as a "bailout" and in this case more specifically a "debt guarantee", this
would involve the Australian Government covering Qantas' debts, should the company collapse.
(Mcllroy, 2014, p9) There were mixed views on this particular issue between different MP's,
different political parties and against Qantas itself. After much debate on the issue however it was
declared that the Government would not grant a debt guarantee to Qantas. (Coorey, 2014) This essay
takes into account both sides of this debate and explains why the ultimate decision by the
Government not to financially support Qantas was justified.
From July 2013 to July2014, Qantas reported a statutory loss of 2.84 billion dollars (Qantas, 2014,
p1) and job cuts of approximately 5,000. (Boyle, 2014, p3) According to some commentators
continued decline of this scale would bankrupt the airline. (Mccrann, 2014)

being an increase in fuel costs of 6 per cent ($253 million). (Qantas, 2014, p1)This

in fact I could see myself visiting there some day, but only have studing on the most current laws. I
think the United States would be better off if we as a nation thought more about how our individual
actions affected those around us. If you were to visit Singapore, it is highly advised that you first
take time and review both their customs and strict laws. This country is not like any other country
you have been to before. From the time you arrive at Changi International Airport, this difference is
very apparent. You will see go through customs and or immigration, normal and typical when
arriving to a new country, but that is where the similarities end. You will see numerous signs
warning you of the public laws, that you are expected to obey without question. "No photography,
smoking, or gum chewing is allowed" (Buettner, 2011, p. 75). Think for a minute how odd this

The practical value of a risk analysis on key assets depends on the knowledge and completeness
with which the risks are identified. A good analysis requires that the all aspects of the asset be
examined to isolate those conditions, circumstances, activities, and relationships that affect the asset.
To effectively analyze threats against key assets, it is necessary to consider as many of the potential
threats as possible. This requires some in depth knowledge of the asset. Below are a few factors that
are important to organizational assets:
 Physical environment of the asset
 Numbers and capabilities of the attackers
 Telecommunications associated with the asset
 Contingency and Disaster Recovery plans for the asset
 Attractiveness of the asset to attack
13. Knowing that threats can occur within an organization and its many environments and

Questionnaire Most of question will be set in closed ended in this Questionnaire, which means the
answers are already provided for them to choose. It also can make people easily answer those
questions and I also can collect the data for analysis. The reason why I don't set it in open–ended is

  • 1. The Commercial Airline Industry Has Witnessed A Steady... After a century of perpetual development [1], the commercial airline industry has witnessed a steady increase in airplane passenger capacity [2]. The industry itself is a notable economic force, from the perspectives of both operations and its impacts on relevant industries such as aircraft construction and tourism [3]. Different scales of wealth has led to market segmentations between airline companies with dissimilar objectives and consumer focus: premium airlines like Singapore Airlines offering top–notch service, comfort, and quality at a higher price whilst low–cost airlines such as easyJet are catering to consumers that prefer economical flights. Nevertheless, despite contrasting consumer targets, an underlying system is needed by airlines to run functionally. This primary system comprises principal inputs like airplanes, crews (pilots, flight attendants, ground staffs, etc) and data (airline 's website, check–in counters, etc), inputs are the components that are being utilised during the process of creating the product or good [31]. It also comprises principal output which is the customers – mainly, the passengers on the airplane. Competitive priorities are defined as the dimensions that a business 's production system must possess to support the demands of the markets in which the business wishes to compete [4]. Undoubtedly, EasyJet's most imperative competitive priorities are its punctuality of flights, emphasis on safety measures, and the low fares for its ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Taking that into consideration, our earth currently is supporting over 7 billion people worldwide. That is 7 billion people who are different and individuals who share different thoughts, ideas, backgrounds, and cultures. Cultures are very unique as they are different from country to country. Some adopt cultures that society accept as the norm, while others adopt different types of cultures; cultures that not many people, especially those outside from the country, can see eye to eye and would sometimes find them rather 'extreme'. When comparing Asian cultures and American cultures side by side, we can easily identify the many differences between the two. For one, Asian cultures are less open, more traditional and conservative in comparison to Americans. While Americans promote liberty, independence, and values individualism; Asian countries, on the other hand, are more fixated in keeping to the custom. Knowing this, it is not surprising to see Asian countries have a more rigid and structured form of society compared to the Western counterparts. The values, business structures and even priorities are different between the two and can easily be distinguished.

This is because a business, by distributing itself across international borders makes its product more readily available to international customers and creates employment opportunities in the country it has moved to. To understand the impacts, globalisation, marketing (particularly market segmentation), global marketing strategies and general history of Qantas need to be examined. Qantas is the oldest airline in the English speaking world. It was founded by the three aviation pioneers Hudson Fysh, Paul McGinness and Fergus McMaster as the Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Service in 1920 and has grown from one aircraft which offered air taxi services and joyrides to a ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Qantas' situational analysis (SWOT) is the first step in the marketing process whereby the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the airline are identified. The airline's strengths include: Being part of the Oneworld alliance, having a high safety record, being a globally recognised airline through the use of branding and the flying kangaroo logo, purchasing the latest aircraft thus updating technology and staying level with international competitors and the final strong success of Qantas has come by operating out of some of the world's major air travel hubs such as Los Angeles International Airport, London's Heathrow Airport, Singapore's Changi Airport and Sydney Kingsford Smith International providing an excellent range of customers. Qantas' main weaknesses come from the high risk nature of airlines (possibility of crashes and large scale incidents), the complexity of the aircraft they buy which could lead to costs of re–training pilots to fly that particular aircraft and may lead to higher labour and the recent string of incidents have undoubtedly hindered Qantas' image. One of the most recent incidents occurred while a reasonably new Qantas A380 was flying from Singapore to Sydney when it experienced engine and hydraulic problems forcing it to hastily turn back and make an emergency landing in Singapore.

Subsequently, passengers and cargo have been a non–stop concern to what is now reflected as a major industry. As time goes by, the aviation industry resumes to grow at an international level. So at this stage, it easily comes under the analysis for any incidents that may occur, being the fact that there are more than 5000 aircrafts in the US Airspace alone per day that sometimes at rare occasions may cause harm or fatality to the passengers or the personnel on board (Referance.com 2016).

The Near Crash Of The Qantas A380 QF32– THE NEAR CRASH OF THE QANTAS A380 OVER SINGAPORE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Airbus A380, one of the largest passenger aircraft in the world, made its debut commercial flight with Singapore Airlines flying from Singapore to Sydney in October 2007. Qantas Flight 32 was the scheduled passenger flight of the A380 fleet which suffered an uncontained engine rotor failure on November 4, 2010 and made an emergency landing at Changi Airport. The UERF was caused by the crack present in the oil feed pipe which developed over a period of time due to fatigue. The crack grew to a size which allowed the oil in the pipe to be released in the HP/IP buffer space, during the occurrence flight. There was severe damage caused to the flight. However, the robust design and structural strength of the jet sustained the damage which might have destroyed the airlines of the past decade. The crew members of Qantas displayed excellent skills in managing the incident and the high standards of piloting culture saved QF32 from a catastrophic crash which enabled Qantas to keep up the brand name and protect its values of 'safety of customers'. The management decided to ground the fleet of A380s for further inspection after the incident. The ATSB carried out a detailed investigation along with Rolls Royce and several other global agencies.

However in the 2013–14 financial year, (Qantas, 2014, pg.1) due to falls in revenue, growing competition and high expenses the airline reported a 2.8 billion dollar loss. (Mccrann, 2014) It was then that the company felt it required government support to assist them in getting back on their feet. Commonly referred to as a "bailout" and in this case more specifically a "debt guarantee", this would involve the Australian Government covering Qantas' debts, should the company collapse. (Mcllroy, 2014, p9) There were mixed views on this particular issue between different MP's, different political parties and against Qantas itself. After much debate on the issue however it was declared that the Government would not grant a debt guarantee to Qantas. (Coorey, 2014) This essay takes into account both sides of this debate and explains why the ultimate decision by the Government not to financially support Qantas was justified. From July 2013 to July2014, Qantas reported a statutory loss of 2.84 billion dollars (Qantas, 2014, p1) and job cuts of approximately 5,000. (Boyle, 2014, p3) According to some commentators continued decline of this scale would bankrupt the airline.

Upon further study my mind was changed to some degree, in fact I could see myself visiting there some day, but only have studing on the most current laws. I think the United States would be better off if we as a nation thought more about how our individual actions affected those around us.
