In close cooperation with Lufthansa, Boeing has developed an aircraft that is optimized not only in terms of com- fort but also in all dimensions of climate and environmental responsibility. The fully redesigned wings, extensive use of weight-reducing materials and innova- tive engine technology ensure that this aircraft’s eco-effi ciency has again been improved signifi cantly in comparison with its predecessor: greater fuel effi - ciency, lower emissions and signifi cant noise reductions (also see page 27). The “Queen of the Skies,” as many Jumbo enthusiasts call the “Dash Eight,” offers an exceptional travel experience in all classes of service, especially in the exclusive First Class and the entirely new Business Class. In this way, environmental effi ciency and the highest levels of travel comfort are brought into harmony. Lufthansa has ordered 20 aircraft of this type.

  • An Assessment of Key Success Factors in the South African Low Cost Airline Industry
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Johannesburg Institutional Repository An assessment of key success factors in the South African low cost airline industry Authors Davids S. (University of Johannesburg) Mapinga T. (University of Johannesburg) Mtimkulu Z. (University of Johannesburg) Dhliwayo S. (University of Johannesburg) Contact author Dhliwayo Department of Business Management Johannesburg Business School University of Johannesburg. P.O. Box 524, Auckland Park, 2006 Johannesburg. South Africa Phone: 027 11 559 1698 Abstract Deregulation of the South African Low Cost Airline lowered entry barriers which resulted in 11 airlines entering the market between 1990 and 2018 but only 6 are still operating. Using a literature and qualitative method, the study found that there are key success factors that actors in the industry have to adhere to enhance their survival. These include having support from a full service parent airline, modern fleet and tapping into the market of those who normally would not fly, among many others. The key success factors seem to have been applied by those that succeeded in the industry. BACKGROUND The deregulation of the South African airline industry in 1990, created opportunities for low cost airlines to emerge and compete within the industry (Paelo & Vilikazi 2016). According to the South African Low Cost Airline Industry study carried out by Mhlanga (2017) deregulation as “an act or process of eliminating regulations and restrictions from a given industry, or the reduction or removal of centralised power in a particular industry usually enacted to create more competition within the industry”.

  • Stock Portfolio Diversified Market Segments: Energy, Technology, Industrial
    Stock portfolio diversified Market segments: Energy, Technology, Industrial. Stocks: Lufthansa, American Air, KLM, — industry sector; Total, E.on, Exxon, Cnooc (HK) — energy sector; Dell, LYFT, Microsoft — technology sector. Introduction Diversified portfolio is created with the distribution of invested money between different units of investment in order to reduce the risk of possible loss of funds. It is optimal for investors taking their first timid steps in the market. In the field of investment activities, the principle of diversification manifests itself in the distribution of invested funds between large public companies with the lowest investment risks. The principle of diversification is the basis for the activities of investment companies and funds. The formation of a diversified investment portfolio at DotBig is driven by the global fundamental backdrop of 2020. During this period the most optimal conditions for safe investments in stock assets were created, which for objective reasons endured bad times, but with the improvement of the epidemiological situation have the highest potential for growth. Every experienced investor is well aware that the impact of the news background, on the economic climate in the world is very difficult to overestimate. When building long-term investment portfolios, you should always consider and take into account assets with the lowest potential for contingencies that could negatively affect the price dynamics of the asset. Let's consider the investment perspective of companies with the lowest risk potential in order. Lufthansa The loss of the German airline Lufthansa in 2020 reached a record €6.7 billion against a profit of €1.2 billion a year earlier, it follows from the financial report of the carrier The airline's revenues fell from 36.4 billion euros to 13.6 billion euros (by 63%).
