  • A Study Applied to Lleida-Alguaire Airport
    JAIRM, 2017 – 7(1), 106-122 Online ISSN: 2014-4806 – Print ISSN: 2014-4865 https://doi.org/10.3926/jairm.76 Management strategies for regional aiports: A study applied to Lleida- Alguaire Airport Natalia Daries-Ramon , Eduard Cristobal-Fransi GRTESC (Research Group), University of Lleida (Spain) [email protected], [email protected] Received April, 2016 Accepted April, 2017 Abstract Purpose: The main objective of this article is to analyse the current situation at Lleida-Alguaire Airport and propose possible actions to increase its profitability. Design/methodology/approach: This study presents the method as a research tool applied to regional airports, in particular, Lleida-Alguaire Airport. Findings: The study shows the importance of air transport and the current situation of Spanish airports, specifically in Catalonia, exposing the main air traffic imbalances between different airports and their effect on tourism. Finally, it describes and analyses the situation of Lleida-Alguaire Airport. Originality/value: This article is one of the first works to focus on regional airports and it seeks ways to improve their economic and social efficiency. Practical Implications: Some actions in relation with aeronautical traffic are presented in order to improve and increase the efficiency of the system. Keywords: Airport, tourism, marketing, air transport, AENA -106- Journal of Airline and Airport Management 7(1), 106-122 1. Introduction Air transport has been a fundamental element in the development of mass tourism. Aviation became the main conveyance to travel long distances and to isolated places. Nevertheless, the progressive change in the consumption of tourist products (Cabeza, 2000; Florido-Benítez, 2016), has given rise to the fact that currently, air transport is also considered a transport of great importance over medium distances.

No per la indústria en si sinó pels interessos posteriors que aquesta genera : turisme, comunicacions, comerç, etc. Sense dubtes les companyies de baix cost nascudes arran de la liberalització de l’espai aeri s’han posicionat en aquest mercat forçant a les companyies tradicionals a reinventar-se. Ryanair n’és el màxim exponent europeu d’aquest fenomen i en els darrers anys s’ha convertit en la segona aerolínia en trànsit aeri de l’Estat. L’entrada de Ryanair a BCN-El Prat ha propiciat un entorn més competitiu entre els aeroports de Catalunya. Arran d’aquests fets el present estudi es concentra en determinar els mecanismes que regeixen la demanda atenent a les limitacions pròpies de les dades disponibles. Amb tot, s’han emprat xifres de passatgers, preus, freqüències i costos per calibrar un model de demanda en el que s’han obtingut les contribucions esperades en cadascun dels factors. A partir d’aquest, es construeix un arbre de decisió que permet identificar quines són les estratègies que poden adoptar cadascun dels actors implicats; per una banda les companyies aèries que competeixen directament amb Ryanair i, per l’altra l’operador aeroportuari en funció de regulador del sistema.
