    Master Thesis Sustainability reporting in the airline industry: a comparative case study analysis of four selected European passenger airlines and their countries of registration on the basis of the airlines’ annual reports and sustainability report from 2018 Student: Laura Vani Kesore (s2015323) [email protected] Study program: Public Administration M.Sc. First Supervisor: Prof. Dr. René Torenvlied [email protected] Second Supervisor: Dr. Ringo Ossewaarde [email protected] Master Thesis 24 August 2020 University of Twente, Faculty of Behavioural, Management and Social Sciences Drienerlolaan 5 7522 NB Enschede, NL Abstract Sustainability reporting for airlines is becoming more and more important. The driving forces are the external and internal pressures, such as demand from the public and society, from governments, stakeholders and shareholders, as well as from NGOs, activists, and the industry- intern economic competition between the airlines. Within the scope of this research, the main focus was on the research question: How can the variation in the claims of sustainable measures reported in the 2018 annual reports and sustainability reports by four different European airlines be explained from the characteristics of the airlines and of the countries in which the airlines are registered?. The ecosystem for the conducted analyses consists of four airlines from four different countries in the European Union. Seven sustainability parameters were chosen in order to objectively analyze the sustainability reporting of the airlines and of their countries of registrations. The parameters are: (I) alternative fuel, (II) CORSIA, (III) aviation tax, (IV) aircraft age, (V) aircraft design, (VI) Dow Jones Sustainability Index, and (VII) atmosfair Airline Index.

  • Conference on the Economics of Airports and Air Navigation Services
    ANSConf-WP/58 7/6/00 (English only) CONFERENCE ON THE ECONOMICS OF AIRPORTS AND AIR NAVIGATION SERVICES (Montreal, 19 - 28 June 2000) Agenda Item 1: Economic situation of airports, air navigation service providers and their financial relationships with air carriers and other users THE WORLD OF CIVIL AVIATION (Presented by the Secretariat) INFORMATION PAPER SUMMARY This information paper highlights major developments during the year 1999 and for the forecast period 2000-2002 reflecting findings of the forthcoming Circular 279, The World of Civil Aviation — 1999-2002. The Appendix to this information paper contains a draft version of Circular 279 which will be the eighth in an annual series of publications covering recent and future developments in civil aviation. In the draft circular, Part I reviews the main events in or affecting international civil aviation in 1999; Part II analyses trends in the world economy and the air transport industry and presents global forecasts of airline scheduled passenger traffic through to 2002; and Part III reviews, on a region-by-region basis, the year 1999 and gives prospects through to 2002. This information paper has been provided to supplement the working paper ANSConf-WP/13 and as background material. Developments concerning providers of air transport infrastructure, both airports and air navigation services, discussed in Chapter 3 might be of particular interest to Conference participants. 1. Major developments during the year 1999 1.1 Growth in the world economy started to recover as did airline traffic but airline operating profits softened and aircraft orders declined. 1.1.1 The world’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew by an estimated 3.0 per cent in real terms.

  • Common Factors in the Withdrawal of European Aircraft Manufacturers from the Regional Aircraft Market
    Technology Analysis & Strategic Management Vol. 22, No. 1, January 2010, 65–80 Common factors in the withdrawal of European aircraft manufacturers from the regional aircraft market Hans Heerkensa, Erik J. de Bruijna and Harm-Jan Steenhuisb∗ aSchool of Management and Governance, University of Twente, The Netherlands; bCollege of Business and Public Administration, Eastern Washington University, USA We investigate whether there were common causes for the withdrawal from the regional aircraft market of three established manufacturers (BAE Systems, Fokker and Saab), while competi- tors thrived. We focus on the markets for 50- and 100-seat aircraft. One cause concerning the 50-seat market was the introduction of a new class of aircraft, the regional jet, which pushed the less successful turboprop aircraft from the market. Turboprop aircraft that had been relatively successful before the introduction of regional jets survived. A probable reason for the with- drawal of BAE Systems and Fokker from the 100-seat market (in which Saab was not present) was that their products were ‘standalone’ aircraft, while those of their successful competitors were members of aircraft families, the larger members being far more successful. It was not the availability of technology that determined the success of regional aircraft manufacturers, but the application of (suppliers’) technology in new products. Keywords: aerospace industry; regional jet market; withdrawal strategy Introduction Downloaded By: [Universiteit Twente] At: 09:05 23 December 2009 For students of corporate strategy, there is an abundance of literature on factors that influence the success or failure of individual companies or products; see, for example, Johnson and Scholes (1999) and Kerzner (2003).

Lyngby Denmark http://www.bvg.dtu.dk 2001 DISCLAIMER Portions of this document may be illegible in electronic image products. Images are produced from the best available original document Report BYG DTU R-021 2001 ISSN 1601-2917 ISBN 87-7877-076-9 Executive summary This summary describes the results of a Ph.D. study that was carried out in the Energy Planning Group, Department for Civil Engineering, Technical University of Denmark, in a three-year period starting in August 1998 and ending in September 2001. The project was funded by a research grant from the Danish Energy Research Programme. The overall aim of this project is to investigate the linkages between energy use, life style and environmental impact. As a case of study, this report investigates the future possibilities for reducing the growth in greenhouse gas emissions from commercial civil air transport, that is passenger air travel and airfreight. The reason for this choice of focus is that we found that commercial civil air transport may become a relatively large energy consumer and greenhouse gas emitter in the future. For example, according to different scenarios presented by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), commercial civil air transport's fuel burn may grow by between 0,8 percent a factor of 1,6 and 16 between 1990 and 2050. The actual growth in fuel consumption will depend on the future growth in airborne passenger travel and freight and the improvement rate for the specific fuel efficiency.
