The design and analysis of the feasibility of airlines networks can be done by using the models developed in this thesis. It is...

Proposition of a mathematical model for selecting possible low-cost airlines routes

This paper examines the effects that low-cost carriers (LCC’s) produce when entering new routes operated only by full-service carriers (FSC’s) and routes operated by low-cost carriers in competition with full-service carriers. A mathematical model has been developed to determine what routes should be operated by a low-cost carrier with better...

Literature review of the passenger airline business models: Full service carrier, low-cost carrier and charter airlines

The deregulation and liberalization of the air transportation industry have developed three main passenger business models: full service carriers, low-cost carriers, and charter airlines. Deregulation removed regulated fares and routes increasing competition and yields. Airlines business models main objectives are to minimize operation costs and...
