AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2008 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Before Alliances, there was Pan American World Airways . and Trans World Airlines. Before the mega- Alliances, there was interlining, facilitated by IATA Like dogs marking territory, airlines around the world are sniffing each other's tail fins looking for partners." Daniel Riordan “The hardest thing in working on an alliance is to coordinate the activities of people who have different instincts and a different language, and maybe worship slightly different travel gods, to get them to work together in a culture that allows them to respect each other’s habits and convictions, and yet work productively together in an environment in which you can’t specify everything in advance.” Michael E. Levine “Beware a pact with the devil.” Martin Shugrue Airline Motivations For Alliances • the desire to achieve greater economies of scale, scope, and density; • the desire to reduce costs by consolidating redundant operations; • the need to improve revenue by reducing the level of competition wherever possible as markets are liberalized; and • the desire to skirt around the nationality rules which prohibit multinational ownership and cabotage. Intercarrier Agreements · Ticketing-and-Baggage Agreements · Joint-Fare Agreements · Reciprocal Airport Agreements · Blocked Space Relationships · Computer Reservations Systems Joint Ventures · Joint Sales Offices and Telephone Centers · E-Commerce Joint Ventures · Frequent Flyer Program Alliances · Pooling Traffic & Revenue · Code-Sharing Code Sharing The term "code" refers to the identifier used in flight schedule, generally the 2-character IATA carrier designator code and flight number. Thus, XX123, flight 123 operated by the airline XX, might also be sold by airline YY as YY456 and by ZZ as ZZ9876.

Airline Alliances
AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2011 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Open Skies • 1992 - the United States concluded the first second generation “open skies” agreement with the Netherlands. It allowed KLM and any other Dutch carrier to fly to any point in the United States, and allowed U.S. carriers to fly to any point in the Netherlands, a country about the size of West Virginia. The U.S. was ideologically wedded to open markets, so the imbalance in traffic rights was of no concern. Moreover, opening up the Netherlands would allow KLM to drain traffic from surrounding airline networks, which would eventually encourage the surrounding airlines to ask their governments to sign “open skies” bilateral with the United States. • 1993 - the U.S. conferred antitrust immunity on the Wings Alliance between Northwest Airlines and KLM. The encirclement policy began to corrode resistance to liberalization as the sixth freedom traffic drain began to grow; soon Lufthansa, then Air France, were asking their governments to sign liberal bilaterals. • 1996 - Germany fell, followed by the Czech Republic, Italy, Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Malta, Poland. • 2001- the United States had concluded bilateral open skies agreements with 52 nations and concluded its first multilateral open skies agreement with Brunei, Chile, New Zealand and Singapore. • 2002 – France fell. • 2007 - The U.S. and E.U. concluded a multilateral “open skies” traffic agreement that liberalized everything but foreign ownership and cabotage. • 2011 – cumulatively, the U.S. had signed “open skies” bilaterals with more than100 States. Multilateral and Bilateral Air Transport Agreements • Section 5 of the Transit Agreement, and Section 6 of the Transport Agreement, provide: “Each contracting State reserves the right to withhold or revoke a certificate or permit to an air transport enterprise of another State in any case where it is not satisfied that substantial ownership and effective control are vested in nationals of a contracting State .

Volume XXI, 40 – No.1, 2019, DOI: 10.35116/aa.2019.0006 MARKET SEGMENTATION IN AIR TRANSPORTATION IN SLOVAK REPUBLIC Marek PILAT*, Stanislav SZABO, Sebastian MAKO, Miroslava FERENCOVA Technical university of Kosice, Faculty of aeronautics *Corresponding author. [email protected] Abstract. This article talks about segmentation of air transport market in the Slovak Republic. The main goal was to explore all regular flights from three International airports in Slovak Republic. The researched airports include M.R. Štefánik in Bratislava, Košice International Airport and Poprad - Tatry Airport. The reason for the selection of airports was focused on scheduled flights. The main output of the work is a graphical representation of scheduled flights operated from the territory of the Slovak Republic. The work includes an overview of airlines, destinations, attractions, and other useful information that has come up with this work. Keywords: Airport; segmentation; scheduled flights 1. INTRODUCTION The main aim of this article is to point out the coverage of the air transport market from the territory of the Slovak Republic. Initial information was processed for three International airports and their regular flights to different parts of the world. We chose M.R. Stefanik in Bratislava, Kosice International Airport and Poprad - Tatry Airport. In practical part the authors collected all regular flights from the airports and processed them in table form. All these lines were needed to develop a comprehensive graphical model which is also the main output. The graphical model clearly shows where it can be reached from the territory of the Slovak Republic by a direct route. All data is current for the 2018/2019 Winter Timetable with all the current changes, whether in terms of line cancellation or adding new carriers to new destinations.
