How Do Airlines Perceive That Strategic Alliances Affect Their Individual Branding?
Journal of Air Transportation Vol. 11, No. 2 -2006 HOW DO AIRLINES PERCEIVE THAT STRATEGIC ALLIANCES AFFECT THEIR INDIVIDUAL BRANDING? Konstantinos Kalligiannis Cranfield University Bedford, United Kingdom Kostas Iatrou Hellenic Aviation Society Athens, Greece Keith Mason Cranfield University Bedford, United Kingdom ABSTRACT Much research has been carried out to evaluate the impact of strategic alliance membership on the performance of airlines. However it would be of interest to identify how airlines perceive this impact in terms of branding by each of the three global alliance groupings. It is the purpose of this paper to gather the opinion of airlines, belonging to the three strategic alliance groups, on the impact that the strategic alliance brands have had on their individual brands and how do they perceive that this impact will change in the future. To achieve this, a comprehensive survey of the alliance management and marketing departments of airlines participating in the three global strategic alliances was required. The results from this survey give an indication whether the strategic airline alliances, which are often referred to as marketing agreements, enhance, damage or have no impact on the individual airline brands. Konstantinos Kalligiannis is a Ph.D. candidate at Cranfield University (on Airline Branding inconsistencies within the Airline Alliances) and holds a M.Sc. in Airport Planning and Management from Loughborough University, a M.Sc. in Air Transport Management from Cranfield University and a B.A. in Business Administration from Luton University. Konstantinos is also working as an aviation consultant and airport planner. His key areas of expertise include air traffic forecasts, airport planning, feasibility studies and business plans for start up airlines. -

The Contribution of Global Alliances to Airlines' Environmental Performance
sustainability Article The Contribution of Global Alliances to Airlines’ Environmental Performance Belén Payán-Sánchez , Miguel Pérez-Valls * and José Antonio Plaza-Úbeda Economics and Business Department, University of Almería, Ctra. Sacramento s/n, La Cañada de San Urbano, 04120 Almería, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 June 2019; Accepted: 22 August 2019; Published: 24 August 2019 Abstract: Global alliances have traditionally been related to improvements in the economic and operational performances of companies, particularly in the airline industry. However, we still do not know the effect of the participation in this kind of multilateral agreement on the environmental performance of airlines. The main aim of this work is to analyze whether the alliance membership of airlines has an effect upon their environmental performance, and if so, whether or not the characteristics of the global alliance, as well as the business model of the airline, may influence this relation to a greater or lesser extent. The results of regression and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) in a sample of 252 airlines (58 included in one of the three global alliances: Star Alliance, Oneworld, and SkyTeam) show a strong and inverse relationship between environmental performance and belonging to an alliance. The paper also shows empirical evidence of the influence of the business model of the airline on environmental performance. These results suggest important implications for managers facing challenges regarding sustainability. Keywords: global alliances; sustainability; environmental performance; airlines; aviation 1. Introduction The aviation sector is the fastest-growing source of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide [1]. Many authors and corporations, such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA), agree that environmental sustainability may be achieved through external pressure with the imposition and accomplishment of different policies, regulations, taxations and other fiscal instruments [2–6]. -

There are 22 different programs running today. • Although it is possible to join several programs in parallel, there is no need to do so, because Miles or Points can be earned and redeemed with one program across all Star Alliance member airlines. • For this reason, Star Alliance recommends that you join the program of the airline you are most likely to travel with often.

AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2008 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Before Alliances, there was Pan American World Airways . and Trans World Airlines. Before the mega- Alliances, there was interlining, facilitated by IATA Like dogs marking territory, airlines around the world are sniffing each other's tail fins looking for partners." Daniel Riordan “The hardest thing in working on an alliance is to coordinate the activities of people who have different instincts and a different language, and maybe worship slightly different travel gods, to get them to work together in a culture that allows them to respect each other’s habits and convictions, and yet work productively together in an environment in which you can’t specify everything in advance.” Michael E. Levine “Beware a pact with the devil.” Martin Shugrue Airline Motivations For Alliances • the desire to achieve greater economies of scale, scope, and density; • the desire to reduce costs by consolidating redundant operations; • the need to improve revenue by reducing the level of competition wherever possible as markets are liberalized; and • the desire to skirt around the nationality rules which prohibit multinational ownership and cabotage. Intercarrier Agreements · Ticketing-and-Baggage Agreements · Joint-Fare Agreements · Reciprocal Airport Agreements · Blocked Space Relationships · Computer Reservations Systems Joint Ventures · Joint Sales Offices and Telephone Centers · E-Commerce Joint Ventures · Frequent Flyer Program Alliances · Pooling Traffic & Revenue · Code-Sharing Code Sharing The term "code" refers to the identifier used in flight schedule, generally the 2-character IATA carrier designator code and flight number. Thus, XX123, flight 123 operated by the airline XX, might also be sold by airline YY as YY456 and by ZZ as ZZ9876.
