China Airlines
INTRODUCTION China Airlines

Introduction
In Dec 2010, China airlines Ltd, announced that it had recorded sales revenues of 138.14 Million dollar as for flights carrying people. The company’s Sales Revenue increased by 41 % from Dec 2009 in which the company had achieved 98 Million Dollars. This increase was followed after the company’s announcement in January 2010 that its recorded Sales reached an amount of 358 Million dollars in Dec 2009 including civil and cargo services. These numbers show a huge deficit in the total revenue of flights carrying civilians where the main source of profitability was based and focused on Cargo flights services.
Still CAL, China airlines Ltd, didn’t complete its Mission well in terms of increasing profitability and developing its services in order to boost its revenues. Still Civil flights consider covering 38% of the company’s recorded sales. In our paper we stated the company’s Vision, Mission, and Objectives in order to state a plan for developing the company’s civil flights using an edited Business Model. CAL’s problem was in its high costs among competitors who used the LCC (low cost control) in their business in order to create a competitive advantage. In our paper we edited the company’s business model in which we entered some of LCC programs that may attract more customers and compete strongly with competitors. For that CAL developed its systems to be number one leading systems among other airlines especially those in emerging markets such as Mainland china. We stated in our paper the new e-ticketing system which ensures comfort and satisfaction to customers more than other airlines plus it did open its system for online booking by agencies for tourism purposes also. Note that CAL did face an increase in the international fuel costs which is a main source of increasing its flight costs. For that our paper stated that CAL should always buy new aircrafts with engines of less fuel consumptions and from there an idea of

    In this assignment I was assigned the task of comparing 2 different airlines, one being a full service carrier and the other being a lost cost carrier, from United States of America, namely the Delta Airlines and South West Airlines. The points of comparison were market strategies, financial benefits, load factors, contrasting yield, revenues and passenger/cargo loads. The analysis was done on the business model and a long term strategy. Through this it would be known that which airline is performing better than the other.

    The airline industry is highly cost-driven creating an extremely competitive environment in which to operate. The majority of customers prefer an inexpensive and hassle-free airline experience; for those business customers who previously paid for the extra features, such as first class, the ability to reduce costs has become more important causing them to consider finding lower priced business class seats or flying coach instead. This trend is referenced in Exhibit 1. The airlines which have focused on building their business model to provide a unique or exceptional flight experience in…

    Deregulation of airline industry in US brought many changes to the way the industry operated, which automatically resulted in increase in the number of carriers which specialized in services which were limited to regions and non-stop operations round the clock. These low cost carriers strategy was to purchase older cheaper aircraft and sometimes also operated outside the boundaries of industry wide online reservation systems which many of the larger carriers have implemented effectively. Against the inconvenience caused to the passengers, low fares as compared to the industry standards were offered to the passengers and every now and then new marketing strategies were implemented in order to lure more passengers to use their services on the basis of cost based competitive strategy. This paper also focuses on one of the low cost airline i.e. Delta Airlines and its oligopolistic position in the airline industry. By investigating Delta Airlines, a better analysis of price vs service impact in the airline industry as a whole can be understood and the impacts on travelers and people investing in the organization. Till late 1070s, much of the prices were setup by the government which resulted in price not being a factor of competitive…

    An Airlines route planning emerges from the company’s vision and mission it has given itself.

    The US airline industry has gone through many turbulent times. The woes of the US Airline industry during the 21st century were typically attributed to the triple-whammy of the September 11, 201 terrorist attacks, the high price of crude oil, and the 2008 financial crash. Certainly, each of these was a powerful force in boosting costs and depressing demand. Yet the financial problems of the US airline business was little better. The IATA, the worldwide association of airlines, showed that the global airline industry had consistently failed to earn returns that covered its cost of capital. (Grant) In the US airline industry, approximately 100 certificated passenger airlines operate over 11 million flight departures per year, and carry over one-third of the world’s total air traffic – US airlines enplaned 745 million passengers in 2006. US airlines reported over $160 billion in total revenues, with approximately 545,000 employees and over 8,000 aircraft operating 31,000 flights per day. The economic impacts of the airline industry range from its direct effects on airline employment, company profitability and net worth to the less direct but very important effects on the aircraft manufacturing industry, airports, and tourism industries, not to mention the economic impact on virtually every other industry that the ability to travel by air generates. Commercial aviation contributes 8 percent of the US Gross Domestic Product, according to recent estimates. The economic importance of the airline industry and, in turn, its repercussions for aircraft manufacturers, makes the volatility of airline profits and their dependence on good economic conditions a serious concern for both industries. This concern has grown dramatically since airline deregulation, as stable profits and/or government assistance were the rule rather than the exception for most international airlines prior to the 1980s. As shown in Figure 1, the total net profits…

    E-Commerce or electronic commerce, is defined as an online commerce using electronic media especially Internet or Website. There are many activities in this electronic system such as marketing, selling, buying, distributing and services of products that are all done online. In the airline industry, the online system is very crucial in order to provide convenient services, easy travelling process, real time information, and low airline fare to their passengers. For low cost carriers, e-commerce is very important to reduce their operation cost. E-commerce also serves as a catalyst to boost the airline marketing since the marketing window will be worldwide and less time taken to spread it out. This is the main reason why the AirAsia management uses the “E-commerce” concept for their daily operation. The first concept introduced is Internet booking. Now,…
