John Frank-Keyes reports. “ 5 adrid Barajas is absolutely vital for air transport in Spain because of its hub function. However, we faced significant capacity limitations, so these infrastructure developments were crucial – and not just for Madrid, but for Spain and indeed for Europe. We now have the capacity to move up from being Europe’s fifth-ranked airport, and indeed it is something we have been able to achieve as we are now fourth in the first quarter of 2007,” Marin replied. Previously, Barajas had hourly runway capacity of 78 movements per hour with passenger mgrowth of about 8% a year. “The full benefits of the new capacity have really been felt with the advent of the winter season when we have been able to offer 90 movements per hour.

  • Overcoming the Threat of Low Cost Carriers
    Overcoming the threat of low cost carriers: The effects of partnerships and imitation Iberia airline business case Anuroopa Kataria (6126391) Universiteit van Amsterdam MSc Business Studies - Strategy track Supervisor: Drs. J.G. de Wit 11 July 2014 Abstract As a response to the increasing threat of low cost rivals on short haul markets that jeopardize the hub & spoke system, full service airlines attempted to capture this threat by forming partnerships with these competitors or imitating them. The implemented strategies are aimed at lowering the high cost structure of full service airlines for short haul operations, to similar cost structures of the low cost rivals. Simultaneously, full service airlines are required to maintain the connectivity of their hub & spoke system as part of their competitive position. The aim of this study is therefore to examine the actual effectiveness of strategies of partnership and imitation regarding cost reduction and connectivity by analysing Iberia airline that implemented the dual strategic action of imitation and acquisition. The airline formed a partnership by acquiring low cost airline Vueling and applied the strategy of imitation by developing low cost subsidiary Iberia Express. The analysis is based on Iberia’s annual reports, OAG data of Iberia’s route schedule and reports of CAPA. The results indicate that subsidiary Iberia Express indeed contributes to a lower cost structure on the short haul operations of Iberia as well as improved connectivity for Iberia’s network system. Vueling on the other hand, expands Iberia’s network with an intra-European network on hub Barcelona. The operations do not interfere with the hub & spoke system of Iberia in Madrid, so Vueling does not affect the connectivity of Iberia’s hub & spoke system.

  • Oviedo, Located in the North of Spain with About 250,000 Inhabitants, Is the Capital of Asturias, the Oldest Christian Kingdom of the Peninsula
    A LITTLE HISTORY Oviedo, located in the north of Spain with about 250,000 inhabitants, is the capital of Asturias, the oldest Christian Kingdom of the Peninsula. The Astur Kingdom, the heart of Spain, was the first Christian political entity established in the Iberian Peninsula after the Muslim invasion in 711. It was created "by divine providence" after the battle of Covadonga in 722, according to the Chronicon Albeldense; its capital was moved to Oviedo in the time of Fruela I in the 8th century. The 1st Pilgrimage of Nuestra Señora de la Cristiandad (Our Lady of Christianity) will depart from the Holy Basilica Church Cathedral of San Salvador de Oviedo, the Sancta Ovetensis, in whose Holy Chamber the Arca Santa is preserved, which contains numerous relics, the best known being the Holy Shroud with which Our Lord’s head was wrapped when He was lowered from the Cross, to arrive at the feet of Our Lady of Covadonga, the birthplace of Spain, in the National Park of the Picos de Europa. HOW TO REACH OVIEDO Oviedo has a train and bus station in the city, and an airport (Asturias Airport) some 48 kilometres away, with several national flights that arrive daily from the main capitals of the country. It is possible to obtain a ticket to Asturias-Oviedo Airport (OVD), with a short stopover at Adolfo Suárez-Barajas Airport from most of the main European airports. There is a direct bus service without intermediate stops from Asturias airport, which is operated by the company Alsa and takes you to the centre of Oviedo in about 45 minutes for €9.00.
