We examine the impact of airline codesharing on consumer choice behavior in non-stop international route markets. Using stated preference data, we document that consumer valuation of flights by alien foreign carriers is significantly higher if these flights are offered as codeshare products by...

We document gender differences in the price paid for work-related air travel among similar workers within a firm. We show that women pay consistently less per ticket than men, after accounting for a large set of covariates that include the characteristics of the trips, the employers, and the...

Background: Mission statements have come to play an important role as tools for organizational value sharing. Objectives: This study aims to shed light on what types of values are highlighted in international airline alliance members' mission statements, and whether there are significant...

The Authors consider that as a mid-term storage technology (from some hours to some days), small/medium size CAES systems (1-10 MW) might be efficiently and profitably used for off-grid and self-consumption applications as well as for the provision of ancillary services on the lower grid levels....

Due to the lockdown regulations worldwide during the COVID-19 pandemic, the global aviation industry has been severely hit. This study focuses on the volatility estimation of stock indexes in the Chinese Airport Shipping Set (ASS) at industry-enterprise levels and identifies possible business...

We document gender differences in the price paid for work-related air travel among similar workers within a firm. We show that women pay consistently less per ticket than men, after accounting for a large set of covariates that include the characteristics of the trips, the employers, and the...

Institutional investors often own significant equity in firms that compete in the same product market. These "common owners" may have an incentive to coordinate the actions of firms that would otherwise be competing rivals, leading to anti-competitive pricing. This paper uses data on airline...

We consider the problem of minimizing the number of airplanes needed to fly a fixed daily repeating schedule of flights. We use deficit functions (DF) to decompose an aviation schedule of aircraft flights into aircraft chains (routes) called a chain decomposition. Each chain visits periodically...

Warren Buffett once famously stated that airlines were infamous for destroying shareholder value . His hindsight proposition to better have taken the Wright brothers out of the sky violently surely was a pointed one, if not entirely serious. This paper seeks to shed some light on the challenges...

The paper focuses on meetings as an over-utilized, but often under-structured tool for managerial effectiveness and efficiency. The authors present four different meeting types, more precisely termed team facilitations, as commonly used in aviation by flight crews: Brainstorming, Briefing,...

Network structure is one parameter that feeds into airline business models. We analyze the networks of 58 European airlines including full service carriers, low cost carriers, regional and charter airlines. Eight network metrics are calculated to describe the various aspects of network...

The paper studies a method for evaluating current literature that receives little consideration in research and development. Various types of undervalued studies are recognized, and how they are related to a systematic review is shown. A diagram is presented that illustrates scoping studies...

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of in-flight service quality on value for money for business passengers in airlines. In this study, in-flight service quality included four dimensions-seat comfort, staff service, food and beverages, and in-flight entertainment-while...

"Aviation Investment uniquely addresses investment appraisal methods across the key industries that make up the aviation sector, including the airports, air traffic management, airline and aircraft manufacturing - or aeronautic - industries. This practice-oriented book presents methods through...

"This text is among the first to reveal the intricacies of an airline's Operations Control Centre; especially the thought processes, information flows, and strategies taken to mitigate disruptions. Airline Operations Control provides a deep level of description, explanation and detail into the...

We examine the impact of airline codesharing on consumer choice behavior in non-stop international route markets. Using stated preference data, we document that consumer valuation of flights by alien foreign carriers is significantly higher if these flights are offered as codeshare products by...

The purpose of Aircraft Fleet Planning is to provide the number and type of aircraft for acquisition, its time of acquisition, and trade-in or phase out of fleet. Airlines select a particular type of aircraft from the manufacturer on the basis of optimum cost, considering a number of...

Convenient scheduling, characterized by adequate flight frequency, is the main quality attribute for airline services. However, the effect of airline alliances on this important dimension of service quality has received almost no attention in the literature. This paper fills this gap by...

In this paper, we provide arrival time prediction combined with a cost index optimization model for short haul flights. Our work is based on flight data of a European network carrier. We focus on predicting the arrival time for incoming flights at two hub locations. Airlines focus on two aspects...

This research develops and examines a customer-based Airline brand equity (CBABE) model and examines the mediating effects of Airline brand reputation on the relationship among CBABE and Airline brand trust. By means of structural equation modelling (SEM) analysis, the four dimensions of CBABE-...
