  • Peculiarities of Development of the Low-Cost Airlines in Russian and Norwegian Context
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Brage Nord Open Research Archive Logistics and transport BE303E 003 Peculiarities of development of the low-cost airlines in Russian and Norwegian context by Elena Toramanyan Spring, 2007 Abstract E. Toramanyan, Master thesis ABSTRACT Low-cost flights per se become more and more popular in the world airline industry, while in Russia the first low-cost carrier has recently appeared. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the phenomenon of low-cost carriers, peculiarities of the development of the low-cost airlines in the context of Russian Federation and Norway. In order to cover the topic, deep literature review and qualitative research were carried out. In the paper, I attempted to follow history, analyze reasons for low-cost flights, advantages and disadvantages of low-cost carriers, scrutinize perspectives and peculiarities of the low-cost airline market in Russia and Norway, and analyze future opportunities. Under these circumstances, case study method and interviews as primary information sources and reports and articles written by airline experts as secondary sources were used. Two companies were under the research: Sky Express – a Russian low-cost airline company launched the market this year, and a Norwegian low-cost airline company, a member of European Low Fares Airline Association, Norwegian Air Shuttle. Deep literature review concerning low-cost airlines and empirical findings showed that the phenomenon of low fares has its peculiarities on a particular market. In order to understand the role of context regarding the research question, I tried to find similarities and to reveal differences in the activities of two companies with the help of PESTE analysis.

The study reveals the significance of air transport for Russian economy by comparing airlines’ and air- ports’ monetary output to the gross domestic product. On the basis of the research, the policies in the aviation sector can be adjusted by government authorities. Ключевые слова: Russia, aviation, GDP, economic impact, air transport, statistics. Introduction According to Air Transport Action Group, the air transport industry supports 62.7 million jobs globally and aviation’s total global economic impact is $2.7 trillion (approximately 3.5% of the Gross World Product) [1]. Aviation transported 4 billion passengers in 2017, which is more than a half of world population, according to the International Civil Aviation Organization [2]. It makes the industry one of the most important ones in the world. It has a consid- erable effect on national economies by providing a huge number of employment opportunities both directly and indirectly in such spheres as tourism, retail, manufacturing, agriculture, and so on.
