  • Loyalty Programs: the Vital Safety Feature for Airlines to Survive COVID-19
    The current issue and full text archive of this journal is available on Emerald Insight at: https://www.emerald.com/insight/2516-8142.htm Airline loyalty Loyalty programs: the vital programs safety feature for airlines to survive COVID-19 Manuel E. Pascual Chaplin School of Hospitality and Tourism, Florida International University, Miami, Florida, USA, and Received 9 March 2021 Revised 13 April 2021 Lisa Nicole Cain Accepted 14 April 2021 Hospitality and Tourism Management, Florida International University Biscayne Bay Campus, North Miami, Florida, USA Abstract Purpose – The airline industry has been severely impacted by COVID-19 due to widespread travel restrictions. Its current response is crucial to ensure continued operations after the global pandemic is resolved. One resource the airlines are leveraging is loyalty programs. This study aims to examine the viability of leveraging loyalty programs in times of crisis. Design/methodology/approach – This study employs a case study methodology to examine how one company, American Airlines, has used its loyalty program to survive a pandemic and alleviate the financial costs associated with limited and restricted travel. Findings – American Airlines’ AAdvantage loyalty program structure may be used as a benchmark to understand how airlines can anchor their loyalty base to reinvigorate travel interest and use these programs as safeguards in critical instances that may arise in the future. Research limitations/implications – The case was bound by the fact that the pandemic was still a threat during the time of analysis. The findings of this case study go beyond the airline industry and may inform other hospitality and tourism organizations on the benefits of loyalty programs in times of financial distress.

  • Finding Optimal Airport Hubs
    Finding Optimal Airport Hubs Jackie Hudepohl Tiffany Zhu Karishma Desai Table of Contents Background 2 Assumptions 2 Data 3 Initial Model 5 Integer Program Formulation 6 Results with Constant Hub Costs 7 Results with Variable Hub Costs 8 Conclusion 9 References 10 1 Background Many airlines use airport hubs to concentrate passenger traffic and flight operations to a particular airport. Hubs often serve as layover points for passengers going to a final destination. An airline operates flight from non-hub cities to hub cities or through hub cities if the final destination is not a hub city. This model creates an economies of scale that allows airlines to fly between a city pair (through a hub) which would not have been economical if the flight were to be nonstop. It is useful for an airline to have a hub so that they can provide more flights that cater to their passengers’ needs and to maximize their revenue. Airlines incur many operating costs. Some of these costs include salaries, repairs, and maintenance. An airline deals with extra costs by having a hub airport. They have to hire more employees and facilities which increases costs. In this project, we wanted to find what the optimal number and location for an airline hub would be by minimizing the operating costs of the airline. The top twenty airports for flight frequency were used as candidates for optimal hub locations. This report includes two methods of solving this problem. The first method, using the hub-and-spokes model, is a simpler model and is done in Python using brute force.

  • IPSOS / AIRLINES for AMERICA POLL DATA Prepared by Ipsos Public Affairs
    IPSOS / AIRLINES FOR AMERICA POLL DATA Prepared by Ipsos Public Affairs Ipsos Poll Conducted for Airlines for America 2017 Air Travelers Survey These are findings from an Ipsos poll conducted January 6-13, 2017 on behalf of Airlines for America. For the survey, a sample of 5,047 adults age 18+ from the continental U.S., Alaska and Hawaii was interviewed online in English. The sample for this study was randomly drawn from Ipsos’s online panel (see link below for more info on “Access Panels and Recruitment”), partner online panel sources, and “river” sampling (see link below for more info on the Ipsos “Ampario Overview” sample method) and does not rely on a population frame in the traditional sense. Ipsos uses fixed sample targets, unique to each study, in drawing sample. After a sample has been obtained from the Ipsos panel, Ipsos calibrates respondent characteristics to be representative of the U.S. Population using standard procedures such as raking-ratio adjustments. The source of these population targets is U.S. Census 2015 American Community Survey data. The sample drawn for this study reflects fixed sample targets on demographics. Post-hoc weights were made to the population characteristics on gender, age, region, race/ethnicity and income. Statistical margins of error are not applicable to online polls. All sample surveys and polls may be subject to other sources of error, including, but not limited to coverage error and measurement error. Where figures do not sum to 100, this is due to the effects of rounding. The precision of Ipsos online polls is measured using a credibility interval.
