The airlines, and the President state that a privatized ATC system would grant, “…more predictable funding to modernize equipment and training faster, for more efficient flights.” (Jansen, 2017). In Reed’s article (2017), he states that privatization would allow for more creative and flexible financing of the system through funding tools not used by government. Moreover, the funding and management structure of the new ATC system would permit advancements in technologies to be adopted and integrated quicker and in a more cost-effective manner (Reed, 2017). So where in does the truth lie? Would general aviation lose its voice in the

Allegiant Air’s main focus area and home base location is Las Vegas, Nevada. McCarran International Airport services the Las Vegas area, but it is nearing capacity. Since McCarran is an urban area, expansion is not a viable option. This case study shows that McCarran International Airport can implement short term improvements to handle additional capacity, but the airport has a capacity ceiling that will be hit in the next 5 to 15 years. A supplemental airport is needed to prevent McCarran International Airport from reaching maximum capacity.

A political factor that is having a significant impact upon IAG is that they rely on politics to allow them to continue to expand and increase the number of flights and destinations they offer customers. As in order to expand their business and increase their value and profitability they require the support of the government in order to build new airports and expand existing ones. The most prominent example of this political factor having a negative impact on IAG is the delayed Heathrow expansion which is ‘hurting aviation industry’ (Guardian, 2012). As many airlines including BA are based out of the airport and there is great demand for the

Built in 1997 as the solution to relieve the once-congested Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, MidAmerica Airport in St. Clair County, sits quiet and empty. The airport has everything its big brother has 25 miles away in St. Louis, everything except passengers. With 38.6 million potential passengers within in a 300 mile radius, it’s unknown what members of the St. Clair County Public Building Commission are doing to attract new business to the facility. But with air travel booming again, passengers are bargain hunting for alternatives to the industry giants that use Lambert-St. Louis International. One solution to this problem would be to market MidAmerica Airport as the only low cost alternative in the region. This type of marketing paired with its already low facility charges, could be the answer to attracting new carriers like Sprit, JetBlue, and Sun Country to the region. To fully understand how this solution could be implemented, first the history of MidAmerica Airport must be discussed, next why marketing the facility as the only low cost alternative in the region should be explored, and finally how to get the governing body of the facility, the St. Clair County Public Building Commission, to consider the solution.

Therefore, it is through proper planning of future and current airport amenities that the airports

The Airlines Market within the United States of America is very important in the role it plays. This industry thrives on what happens upon the profits, failures, successes and all around survival of certain markets. We find that to often within a market there are many gains and profits because of new industries leaving and new industries entering. An Airline market can consist of many different types of businesses plans. The theory behind how American airlines compete among other airlines is with price elasticity. We find that we stay a float by the prices that are offered for certain flights etc. The airlines use the competitive edge by allowing the company to survive. Government can have an adverse effect on what it can do to force

In the vast and developing aviation industry, expansion has become a key priority for many UK airport businesses. Airports in general are looking for chances to grow and provide excellent services, in order to fulfil passenger needs.

Although the consideration of airport expansion may be

First, inherent costs have strategic critical issues that significantly impact costs, but are often outside the near and medium-term control of management. Moreover, the Airports nature, design and industry decide the cost e.g. (location). An airport business

The advantages of privatisation include greater efficiency and fewer limitations involved in government spending allowances. Up until the 1990’s privatisation of airports was mainly within the general aviation, municipal type airfields. Airports were gradually considered as “commercial enterprises”, and as such commercialisation began to take place.

Inefficient pricing by airports creates economic losses to the society in terms of deadweight losses. There is also the question of quality of service in the absence of a regulatory environment.

Airports are similar to cities in a variety of aspects where to happen many activities such as take-off, landings of aircraft, movement of people and freight. It is important to highlight that passengers are the essence of the airports operations considering that the primary purpose of the commercial aviation is to transport customers from one point to another point in a period of time. In over the past years airports focused only in the departure and arrival of passengers but in the current years, airports focus their goals beyond transportation of travellers with the purpose to satisfy their needs. Thus, airports offer a range of services to attract the attention of different type of customers worldwide. The aim of this essay is to analyse and understand the benefits of measure service quality due to the high competitiveness of the airport industry, taking as examples two of the best airports in the world for passengers. The two airports selected are Incheon International Airport and Hong Kong International Airport that are located in Asia, one of the markets with more demand of customers these days and in the coming years by International Air Transport Association (2015). In the direction to enrich the performance of the organisations the need to measure service quality arises, since it is vital to determine how well an airport is performing service delivery in order to survive and grow in a dynamic
