FURTHER RESEARCH 109 9. CONCLUSION 110 10. BIBLIOGRAPHY 113 APPENDIX 119 4 1. Abstract This thesis uses business modelling to examine how CPH Airport can optimize its non-aeronautical business area. The main focus is to apply Alexander Osterwalder’s value proposition canvas, with the aim to optimize the Fit between the offered value proposition and an identified customer segment. This has led to the following problem statement for the thesis “How can CPH Airport optimize its business model for its non- aeronautical business?”. To answer the question, a combination of theory within organizational innovation and strategic marketing has been included. The chosen theories included are Alexander Osterwalder’s theory regarding value proposition canvas, Dan Roam’s concept of the good-luck coin and lastly, David A. Aaker and Damien McLoughlin’s framework of strategic market management. Through the findings of the customer analysis, the segment efficiency traveller is identified to be the most relevant customer segment, for optimizing the non-aeronautical business. This is because their behaviour and needs are challenging for CPH Airport’s non-aeronautical business to match. The segment wants to go through Copenhagen Airport independently as well as efficiently, and does not believe that their is a proper coherence between price and quality of the offerings in the airport. However, there is at the same time a possibility to improve these existing problems, by meeting the segments’ needs through strategic innovation. This has led to three specific initiatives to improve CPH Airport’s non-aeronautical business by creating a stronger Fit: digitalization, automation and branding. Digitalization through beacons can create a more efficient shopping experience, by giving the travellers offers on the go. Automated retail solutions allow the segment to shop more independently, as they can do the shopping on their own. A focus on having well-known brands in the airport can meet the chosen segment’s concerned gap between price and quality, as they know what to expect from the brand. An important finding to be aware of is how stress among the travellers seem to ruin all desire to shop in CPH Airport. This means that the current constructions at CPH Airport can create stress for the travellers, which can limit the effect of the suggested initiatives. 5 2. Introduction 2.1 Background and chosen case H.C. Andersen once stated “To travel is to live” (Den Store Danske, H. C. Andersen på vej mod europæisk berømmelse, 2012). This seems even more true in the 21st century, as the world bank has announced that there were 3.441 billion air transport passengers carried in 2016 (The World Bank, Air Transport, 2017). The number of air transport passengers carried has especially increased rapidly in the recent years, as it has increased with more than a billion since 2009 (see Appendix 1). This means that airports all around the globe plays an important role, as they are the hubs connecting billions of people, and create a global network bringing you almost anywhere on the planet. The increasing number of passengers, also means that airports are becoming a lucrative business, as Airports Council International (ACI) have stated that airports are making more money than ever before (International business times, How do airports generate money?, 2013). In the council's most recent report from 2015, they state that in 2014 the global airport industry revenue was 142.5 billion US dollars. The industry as a whole had grown by 8.2 percent from 2013 to 2014 (ACI, 2015 ACI airport economics report, 2015). An airport generalizes its sources of profit by dividing them into two entities, aeronautical and non- aeronautical business. The first leg of the business is the aeronautical business, which relates to airlines and air traffic. It concerns the charges airlines have to pay for using the airport’s equipment, such as landing charges, parking charges, security charges and aviation fees (Athens international airport, Aeronautical charges, 2015). Aeronautical business is the the bulk of an airport’s income, accounting for about 55 percent of the airport industry’s revenue in 2014 (ACI, 2015 ACI airport economics report, 2015). Aeronautical business is probably what most people imagine when they are thinking about the business of an airport. However, there are many other stakeholders to consider, which leads to the other business leg of an airport. The other business leg of an airport is the non-aeronautical business. In 2014, it was an estimated 58 billion US dollars industry (Concessionaire Analyzer+, Non-aeronautical revenues, 2016). Areas within the non- aeronautical business are products and services such as shops, kiosks, car parking, car rental, etc. (ACI, AirportInfo, 2013). It typically accounts for about 44 percent of an airport’s total operating revenue (International business times, How do airports generate money?, 2013). The business is a source that tends to 6 generate higher profit margins, in comparison with aeronautical activities (ACI, AirportInfo, 2013). The growing number of travellers creates a basis for the airport to sell more products and services. In 2014, the highest revenue streams for global airport’s non-aeronautical business were retail (28 percent), car parking (22 percent) and property (15 percent) (Concessionaire Analyzer+, Non-aeronautical revenues, 2016). An airport that has experienced a positive financial development based on its non-aeronautical business is Copenhagen Airports A/S (CPH Airport). CPH Airport emphasizes in its annual report from 2015 the importance of the non-aeronautical business and a growing number of passengers, as key drivers for its current success (CPH Airport Annual Report 2015, 2016, p. 21). The income statement from 2015 supports the importance of the non-aeronautical business as it accounted for DKK 1,697.4 million of the total DKK 4,061.9 million revenue, which is approximately 41 percent. The total non-aeronautical revenue increased by 4.9 percent from 2014 to 2015, which shows the current growth in the business area (CPH Airport Annual Report 2015, 2016, p. 12). The importance of the non-aeronautical business for CPH Airport, means that the travellers as customers play an important role for the future business of the company.

  • What You Need to Know: Airport COVID-19 Testing November 23, 2020
    BCD Travel Research and Intelligence What you need to know: Airport COVID-19 testing November 23, 2020 COVID-19 testing is increasingly being seen as a way to safely open up international travel, particularly as more destinations make the presentation of a negative result a condition of entry. Such a result may reduce or even eliminate quarantine in some destinations. As testing develops, it is being made available both pre-departure and on-arrival, as airports cater for each destination’s differing regulations and entry conditions. Click on the region below to access the relevant content. Africa Asia Europe Latin America Middle East North America Southwest Pacific Africa Ghana Anyone traveling to Ghana by air must complete an online health declaration form before departure.1 On arrival at Accra’s Kotoka International airport, they must provide evidence of a negative result from a PCR test taken not more than 72 hours before departure and have their temperature checked.2 Passengers must also take a mandatory COVID-19 antigen test at the airport at a cost of $150. Depending on the result, which should be available within 30 minutes, a period in quarantine may be required. Asia China When traveling to China from some countries where infection rates are high, passengers must within 48 hours of boarding a flight take a nucleic acid and IgM antibody test.3 They should present/email negative test results to the local Chinese embassy for a green health code with the “HS” mark or a certified health declaration form. Chinese travelers can upload images of their results to the WeChat Health Code app.
