The pioneer of the low-cost movement Professor Adrian Ryans as a in Europe was Ryanair, which in 2004 was the most profitable basis for class discussion airline in the world (in terms of percentage operating profit), and rather than to illustrate either whose low-cost base and operating efficiency was the envy of effective or ineffective handling the airline industry. of a business situation. Ryanair had a strong commitment to price value with fares that were consistently the lowest in the industry. With almost one quarter of the seats given away for free (before taxes, fees and charges) and an average fare of €44, Europeans became accustomed to “doing a Ryanair” and heading out to far-flung cities across Europe for weekend jaunts. CEO Michael O’Leary was quoted as saying, “Our strategy is like Wal-Mart’s--we pile it high and sell it cheap.” However, Ryanair faced strong competition from traditional carriers, charter airlines and the almost 50 low-cost copycat carriers in Europe, threatening Ryanair’s ambitious plans to double its customer base within five years and deliver consistent returns to shareholders. More immediately, O’Leary had to respond for the first time to serious competition from easyJet, Ryanair’s larger low-cost rival, in its home market, Ireland.

In the 20 year period between 1992 and 2012, 43 low cost carriers (LCCs) have taken advantage of the progressive liberalisation of the European aviation market and commenced scheduled flight operations within the continent. Of these 43, only 10 remain operational, a failure rate of 77%. This paper contributes to extant literature on LCCs by examining the market entry, business practices, operating longevity and fate of failed operators to characterise European LCC market exit. Drawing on the findings of a detailed continental-wide study, the paper identifies that an airline’s start-up date, the nature and size of its operation and the size and composition of its aircraft fleet are key factors which influence LCC success and failure. The implications for both European and emerging LCC markets are discussed. Keywords: Low cost carriers (LCCs), market exit, Europe.
