Conclusion ........................................... 17 STRATEGIC ALLIANCES IN THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY GLOBALIZATION Most American travelers are really excited by their ability to hop a domestic airline flight, make a connection with an international foreign air carrier and arrive at some distant destination and have all the mileage count toward their frequent flier program mileage. While relaxing in some distant vacation spot, the traveler can earn additional frequent flier mileage by seeking hotel accommodations at any one of several establishments with which, for example, Northwest has an agreement - - - Radisson, Marriott, Hyatt, Western and Holiday Inn. If an automobile is necessary, still more frequent flier mileage can be earned from Northwest by restricting your selection to autos rented by Budget, National or Hertz rental agencies. On the other hand, a shipper of goods would probably become excited about tendering a shipment to United Airlines and be assured that it would make a connecting flight with British Airways which, in turn, would interline the shipment with Australian Airlines to its final destination. Strategic air alliances can mean a lot for passengers and shippers. Strategic marketing alliances for airline passengers have been in the process of forming for the last several years. The air alliances are relatively new for shippers. The latest buzzwords to be found in the air industry are such terms as marketing agreements, market-specific agreements, route-specific agreements, management STRATEGIC ALLIANCES IN THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY L.

While the strategic marketing alliances for airline passengers have been in the process of forming for the last several years, the air alliances are relatively new for shippers. The latest buzzwords to be found in the air industry include such terms as marketing agreements, market-specific agreements, route-specific agreements, management Strategic Alliances in the Airline Industry agreements and, of course, equity alliances or equity swaps. Equity swaps? Most consumers probably do not know that Northwest Airlines and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines each own 14.9% of the other. Nor do they know that Delta and Swissair own 5% of each other; or that Continental Airlines and Air Micronesia own 30% of each other. To understand this latest phenomenon of marketing alliances, equity alliances and frequent flier alliances, we need to examine a term called "globalization." Globalization of the U. S. Airline industry began in 1977 and 1978 with the deregulation of the cargo and passenger segments respectively. Eventually, Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, Australia, and other countries experimented with deregulation, liberalization and even privatization of their airline industries. It should be remembered that deregulation of the airline industry, domestically and internationally, has erupted upon the scene as a result of forces outside of the control of the airline industry. Globalization is the airship flying toward tomorrow; (domestic and international) deregulation is the current state-of-the-art fuel being used to power the ship; North America and Europe probably were the first two passengers on that ship to buy - but not pay for - their tickets. Many other passengers (i.e., countries/airline companies) are scrambling for tickets by jockeying for a position in the line that is forming. The European Common Market added fuel to the fire of regulatory liberalization with the Treaty of Rome test of airline competition and pricing in the 1986 Nouvelles Frontieres case which held that the rules of competition which exist under the Treaty of Rome do, indeed, apply to aviation. At that point, the FUTURE was developing around an attempt to foster overall economic airline integration in Europe which 2 Strategic Alliances in the Airline Industry would set up a chain reaction around the world.' As a result, North America and Europe, two of the three major developed regions of the world, are moving rapidly to structurally change air transportation into an arena of open competition by initiating strategic alternatives available to them in the deregulated world of the airline industry. Airline companies in the rest of the world, including the less developed regions, are SEARCHING FOR AND SIGNING UP PARTNERS WITH WHOM TO DANCE TO THE NEW TUNE THE WORLD IS NOW PLAYING. As a result of domestic and international deregulation, mergers, consolidations, and bankruptcies, these relationships between the airline companies are developing into an important THREE-STEP set of Strategic Marketing Alternatives Identified as: (1) MARKETING ALLIANCES, (2) EQUITY ALLIANCES, and the (3) FREQUENT FLIER ALLIANCES - - - a hybrid or specialized variation of the marketing alliance. STRATEGIC ALLIANCES Of the many types of alliances available to enterprising airline companies, the three most important are MARKETING, EQUITY and FREQUENT FLIER PROGRAMS. The last few years has seen a dramatic increase in all three types. Out of one-hundred, seventy-two alliances identified by Mead Jennings in the August, 1990 issue of AIRLINE BUSINESS, eighty-two of the agreements (47.67%) involved equity investments. More specifically, fifty-six per cent of these 82 agreements were made in the last five years (see TABLE 3, APPENDIX). An example is the first truly "global" alliance between Delta, Singapore and Swissair which includes the coordination of international fares and flight schedules, 3 Strategic Alliances in the Airline Industry the loaning of flight attendants and the possibility of joint buying opportunities.2 MARKETING ALLIANCES In the category of MARKETING ALLIANCES, we find the British Airways and United agreement to coordinate schedules and to share codes of international flights; but no equity swaps. Carried to an extreme, one would find a route-specific agreement which refers to an agreement between two airlines regarding the contribution of each airline to a cooperative effort over a specific route (e.g. New York to Sidney, Australia). The EQUITY SWAP - - another name for alliance partners buying into each other - - is a relatively new variation on the much older marketing alliance theme. It is interesting to note that American Airlines serves as a partner to seven other major airlines; Aer Lingus, Air New Zealand, Cathay Pacific, Finnair, Maley, Qantas, and Singapore Airlines. American has picked up an equity position (7.5%) in only one of these airlines; Air New Zealand. Conversely, these same seven airlines serve as partners for American with Air New Zealand holding a 7.5% equity position in American Airlines. Among these seven partners, American has only one wide-ranging marketing alliance with Qantas. The other six alliances are route-or market-specific agreements. TABLE 1 provides some insight into the relationships that have been established among the airline companies of the world and U.S. airline companies. The last column indicates what kind of relationship exists between any two carriers; "M" means there is a wide-ranging marketing alliance agreement between the two carriers; "R" means the agreement covers only a specific route or specific market; "J" means 4 Strategic Alliances in the Airline Industry there is a joint venture between the two firms, "C" means the

The airline expanded too fast, even adding a 747 to its fleet for $99 flights to Brussels, and was eventually merged with Continental under its rapacious Chairman Frank Lorenzo, later banished from the industry by the Department of Transportation. There were any number of smaller, regional airlines that merged or just folded their wings, including Mohawk, Northeast, Southeast, Midway, L’Express, Independence Air, Air California, PSA and a personal favorite, Midwest Express, started by the Kimberly Clark paper company to shuttle employees between its mills and headquarters in Milwaukee. Midwest flew DC-9s, usually fitted with coach seats in a 2-and-3 configuration, but equipped instead with business-class 2-and-2 leather seats.

  • This Is the Us Master Pilot Scablist the Unionist's Edition
    THIS IS THE US MASTER PILOT SCABLIST THE UNIONIST’S EDITION A SCAB is A Person Who is Doing What You’d be Doing if You Weren’t on Strike. A SCAB takes your job, a Job he could not get under normal circumstances. He can only advance himself by taking advantage of labor disputes and walking over the backs of workers trying to maintain decent wages and working conditions. He helps management to destroy his and your profession, often ending up under conditions he/she wouldn't even have scabbed for. No matter. A SCAB doesn't think long term, nor does he think of anything other then himself. His smile shows fangs that drip with your blood, for he willingly destroys families, lives, careers, opportunities and professions at the drop of a hat. He takes from a striker what he knows he could never earn by his own merit: a decent Job. He steals that which others earned at the bargaining table through blood, sweat and tears, and throws it away in an instant - ruining lives, jobs and careers. ONCE A SCAB, ALWAYS A SCAB - NEVER FORGET! Below are brief notes about legal strikes by organized pilots. 1. Century Airlines 1932: Pilots struck to resist wage reduction by E.L Cord, the patron saint of Frank Lorenzo. 2. TWA 1946: Pilots struck over pay on faster 4 engine aircraft, limited by the provisions of Decision 83. 3. National Airlines 1948: Strike over aircraft safety and repeated violations of the labor contract. 4. Western Airlines 1958: Qualifications of the Flight Engineer.

Closing Thoughts 116 2 Part One United Airlines before the Deregulation Act of 1938 United Airlines officially began airline operations in 1926 as a mail carrier. It was also the first fare- paying airline to fly customers from coast to coast in the United States, and by 1930, had introduced the concept of an airline stewardess. The airline soon became one of the “Big Four” contenders in the U.S. and continues to be one of America’s major airlines. It was founded in Boise, Idaho. United Airlines was originally formed as a partnership between Boeing Airplane Company and Pratt & Whitney. It was overseen by the United Aircraft and Transport Corporation and United Air Lines was actually an operating division that was established on July 1, 1931. United’s slogan was the “World’s Largest Air Transport System”. The four transport divisions of the United Aircraft and Transportation Corporation had now become United Airlines. When the Air Mail Act of 1934 broke up all of the aviation holding companies in the United States, the United Aircraft and Transport Corporation was broken up into Boeing, United Aircraft and United Air Lines. It was at this time that United Airlines began offering coast-to-coast service from New York to San Francisco and Los Angeles. Within four months of the beginning coast-to-coast operations, United Air Lines was making as many as 11 round trips every day between Chicago and New York.

  • The Decade That Terrorists Attacked Not Only the United States on American Soil, but Pilots’ Careers and Livelihoods
    The decade that terrorists attacked not only the United States on American soil, but pilots’ careers and livelihoods. To commemorate ALPA’s 80th anniversary, Air Line Pilot features the following special section, which illustrates the challenges, opportunities, and trends of one of the most turbulent decades in the industry’s history. By chronicling moments that forever changed the aviation industry and its pilots, this Decade in Review—while not all-encompassing—reflects on where the Association and the industry are today while reiterating that ALPA’s strength and resilience will serve its members and the profession well in the years to come. June/July 2011 Air Line Pilot 13 The Decade— By the Numbers by John Perkinson, Staff Writer lthough the start of the millennium began with optimism, 2001 and the decade that followed has been infamously called by some “The Lost Decade.” And statistics don’t lie. ALPA’s Economic A and Financial Analysis (E&FA) Department dissected, by the numbers, the last 10 years of the airline industry, putting together a compelling story of inflation, consolidation, and even growth. Putting It in Perspective During the last decade, the average cost of a dozen large Grade A eggs jumped from 91 cents to $1.66, an increase of 82.4 percent. Yet the Air Transport Association (ATA) reports that the average domestic round-trip ticket cost just $1.81 more in 2010 than at the turn of the decade—$316.27 as compared to $314.46 in 2001 (excluding taxes). That’s an increase of just 0.6 percent more.
