From the Paper
"In addition to the influence of economic conditions, the airline industry is characterized by other very complex demand dynamics, depending on travel distance, type of traveler, and domestic and international flights, to name a few of the many factors that determine the degree of price elasticity or inelasticity (Air travel demand elasticities: Concepts, issues and measurement). For long-haul international business travel, demand is not sensitive to fare changes because there are few close substitutes. On the other hand, long-haul domestic business travelers have much higher elasticities than international business travelers. Telecommunications has become more acceptable as a substitute in domestic markets due to common culture, laws, contracts, etc. International leisure travelers are more likely to either postpone their trips in response to higher fares or seek locations that are not as expensive. Currently, the dollar is weak against many international currencies, serving to make many destinations unappealing price- sensitive leisure travel."

" Although the EU in the popular and academic press is often debated in terms of its negative or positive effect as a homogenizing influence upon its member states, which has resulted in the banning of once popular regional products like French raw milk cheese, the alternation of traditional schedules such as the elimination of the customary siesta taken in Greece and Spain, and the capping of state aid to what the EU believes should be privately run industries like airlines, such new emissions regulations indicate how the behemoth economic entity known as the EU can also affect American industries at home, through its regulatory influence and its sheer size. The EU is not simply posing a competing threat for American industry, but its different views on regulation will have an impact upon America economic health, whether Americans like this or not."

Abstract
The writer notes that in the article, 'On Error Management: Lessons from Aviation', the author makes a direct comparison between those in the field of aviation and those in the medical field. He notes that both doctors and pilots operate in similarly complex environments. The writer points out that both experience a variety of risk levels dependent on the environment and, both are committed to safety. However, there are many differences between the two professions. In this essay, the writer discusses the article. The writer concludes that the aviation industry not only tries to learn from mistakes, but also tries to predict ways to prevent mistakes before they happen, which is a valuable lesson that industries, such as the medical profession, could learn from.

From the Paper
"In both professions, human error is a major factor in accidents. Physicians and pilots alike suffer from fatigue, excessive workload, lack of communication, imperfect information processing, and flawed decision making. Both fields also require teamwork to be successful, and ineffective teamwork, sometimes due to interpersonal conflicts amongst team members, can lead to disaster, in the case of aviation, or patient death, in the case of the medical profession. However, unlike the medical profession, aviation utilizes their mistakes as a learning tool to prevent future accidents. Error management strategies allow aviation to discover the nature of what conditions precipitated an accident, and how best to prevent this error from happening again. Helmreich describes lessons that can be learned from the aviation industry and be applied to the medical field."

Abstract
In this article concerning the mid-air collision of Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA) flight 182, the writer traces the events leading up to the event. The writer then describes the accident and explores the possible causes. The writer narrates some of the eye-witness accounts and reviews its aftermath including the effect of the crash on the regulations on air-traffic control around busy airports. The writer concludes that the flight 182 disaster over San Diego remains one of the biggest and most horrific air disasters in the U.S. aviation history, which could have been prevented if better flight rules had been followed. Further, the writer notes that the only silver lining of the appalling tragedy is that the accident prompted the implementation of stricter safety regulations around busy airports in the U.S.

"Robert Osby, then a battalion chief with the San Diego Fire Department, and later the fire chief, who supervised the rescue efforts at the disaster site recalls that the firefighters due to their prompt and professional efforts were able to contain the fire from spreading beyond a remarkably small area--only two sides of one short block of Dwight Street. He also thanks God that the plane had crashed into a working-class neighborhood on a Monday morning when most of the residents of the destroyed homes were at work; otherwise the death toll on the ground would have been much higher (Ibid.) Another reason why the fireball from the fallen aircraft was contained in a smaller area was because the plane did not fall in a parallel-to-the-ground glide path but crashed nose first."
"Hans Wendt, a staff photographer with the San Diego County's public relations office, who was covering an outdoor press event in North Park at the time of the accident, took two dramatic post collision still color photographs of the falling Boeing-727 trailing blue-and-white smoke streaking from its right wing while plunging towards the ground."

"From the point of view of the Americans, the Space Race also took on a much more significant purpose than simply showing that space exploration was possible; early in the consideration of the potential of space exploration and travel, it was realized that the technology and science that could be derived from an effective space program would have many uses, and in light of the possibility of Assured Destruction, defense was one of the most important. In the minds of the American government, the demise of communism was the key to winning the Cold War outright."

Abstract
The paper discusses how Southwest Airlines' co-founder and CEO, Herb Kelleher, is frequently cited as a perfect example of how a charismatic leader can inspire followers to achieve organizational goals in spite of challenges and constraints. The paper shows how his company has managed to flourish in spite of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and a shaky global economy. The paper provides a review of the relevant and peer-reviewed literature. The paper concludes that successful leadership is not as complicated as many might imagine. The paper emphasizes how Herb Kelleher took an infant airline comprised of three aircraft and transformed it into an industry leader that has managed to survive and prosper during some very difficult times.

From the Paper
"Even more than some other industries, the global airlines industry was horsewhipped following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and some major carriers ended in bankruptcy as a result. One shining example that managed to remain viable and even show a profit during this period, though, was Southwest Airlines. The company did not achieve this level of performance by accident, though, nor has it maintained its enviable position in the airline industry without effort. According to its corporate literature, in May 1988, the company was the first airline to win the so-called airline industry "Triple Crown" for a single month: (a) Best On-time Record, (b) Best Baggage Handling, and (c) Fewest Customer Complaints."

Delta's Planning Failure, 2007.
This paper examines the flaws in Delta Airlines' launch of Song Airlines during 2003.
1,553 words (approx. 6.2 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 50.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper reveals that Delta's original intention for the Song airline failed. The paper explains that the purpose and projected outcomes of Delta's new Song airline were not properly in place before the launch of the airline. The paper maintains that in order to successfully implement change on any scale, it is vitally important for a company to incorporate historical research in the planning stage. The paper explains that beneficial alliances and technological advances could have resulted in much better profit margins with fewer risks.

From the Paper
"It later became clear, however that Delta was also using the airline as a test field for new innovations to include improved operations and customer service in the regular airline itself (Copernicus Mzine, 2005). Elements such as reduced time on the ground between flights, simpler fare structures and flexible employee work rules were tested on the Song airline and designed to lower costs. While nothing is inherently wrong with such a strategy, the fact that this emerged only later, after the launch of the new airline, indicates a weak initial planning phase. The purpose and projected outcomes of the new airline were not properly in place before the launch of the airline. This not only poses an unnecessary risk of failure; it also appears unprofessional to the business world at large."

Oil Prices and the Air Cargo Industry, 2006.
This paper is an analysis of the effect of rising oil prices on the air cargo industry

Abstract
This paper explains that, even though oil companies are credited with most of the blame, reasons contributing to the recent high rises in oil are such factors as the increasing demands for oil products in Asia, Russia's primary oil company's recent failure, oil producing companies' political instability, terrorism and fears regarding military tactics. The paper points out that the air cargo industry is adversely affected by rising oil prices because fuel accounts for between 20-30% of their operational costs. The paper relates that these fuel costs for the air cargo industry also are affected by the airports that sell the fuel, the companies that supply the fuel to the airports and the government of the involved country. The paper includes a table, illustrations and the survey.

From the Paper
"Questions are regularly contemplated and discussed whether terrorists' attacks on September 11, 2001 could be an additional factor contributing to decreases in the air cargo's profits. Lufthansa Cargo, however, with huge freighter fleets had already begun to decease their company's capacity before 911, responding to economic fallout. Following the 911 disaster, nevertheless, most airlines reduced their capacity by 10 -15 percent. In addition, a majority of carriers began to impose security surcharges to upset counter-terror actions."

From the Paper
"There are of coarse more recent examples that 1999 and as the attention of the aviation industry, the flying public and of coarse the media have become more attuned to these sorts of situations the accounts are more likely to list pilot fatigue as a major cause of an accident but ultimately the responsibility is often laid upon the individual flight crews as to their obvious inability to self advocate in situations where their physical and mental state is impaired by fatigue. The commercial industry often does not associate their own responsibility, regarding the over scheduling of pilots or the random and physically and mentally disruptive nature of changing time zones, sleep deprivation or limited downtime in a increasingly competitive and demanding environment where cost cutting is necessary and individuals are often lost in the shuffle of the schedule with longer lists of flights and generally lower cost flights that provide a lower return on the investment."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that with rising fuel prices and terrorism as a backdrop, many of the world's major commercial airlines have filed bankruptcy, blaming the additional costs of fuel and security measures for their demise. The writer notes however, that this is not the case with every airline, which leads to interesting subject matter to validate an issue position. In this paper, the researcher validates the issue position that the economic collapse of many major airlines has not been caused by fuel and security, but rather by flaws in the typical commercial aviation business model. This position is justified by the citation of relevant literature and logical conclusions drawn from the research of same. The writer concludes that the aviation industry needs to continually strive for excellence if it is to avoid its own self-fulfilling prophecy.

"The commercial aviation industry is chock full of an inordinate number of bankruptcies, with hundreds occurring over the past several decades. These events had been blamed on a wide variety of factors over the years. Over the last 6 months, there has been another rash of bankruptcies, which are currently being blamed on the excess costs of the security measures needed to protect commercial flights from terrorist infiltration and the rising cost of fuel, with sources reporting that the industry can only realistically pass 10% of the additional expenses on to the consumer for a variety of reasons."

Abstract
Since the airline industry in the United States was deregulated in 1978, there have been many articles written regarding the fares that are charged by various airlines, and the idea that price discrimination or predatory pricing may be taking place. Most of the concern that has been seen lately is much more focused on the major airlines and whether they are using predatory pricing practices, which would therefore discourage lower-cost competition from entering the field. This paper looks at five specific journal articles that deal with price discrimination and utilizes that information to discuss the hypothesis and the rationale for research into the issue. After this is done and the information examined, conclusions and recommendations are drawn regarding airline industry pricing.

From the Paper
"It can be argued by some that the airline industry is seen as having 'an empty core,' meaning that there are not any customers that cannot be taken from one airline by a rival that is heavily price-competitive. In other words, airlines find that they are in a situation where, when the price that they charge is equalized with the minimum average cost, the capacity that they have is greater than their demand. From this it can be argued that one of the most reasonable responses to such a problem is to start developing cartels or some kind of long-term relationships between sellers and buyers."

From the Paper
"Profit motives aside, the airlines do in fact serve the public interest; it is because of airlines' investments in material and human resources that the average person can travel from one place to another in a way that is far superior to any other mode of transportation in terms of time saved and convenience, and despite rumors to the contrary, in fact quite safely. This rapid transportation of people and goods improves the quality of life and efficiency of everyone, allowing business, political and interpersonal relationships to prosper as well as delivery of critical items when they are needed and where they are needed. Therefore, the airlines do in fact have every right to charge what they choose for their services, keeping in mind however that the consumer has the right to refuse to pay the set price. In this way, predatory pricing airlines will be forced out of the marketplace by the time tested forces of supply and demand."

Abstract
The paper explains that although the safe, efficient and legal operation of airports is the responsibility of the airport management, many of the individual services are provided by other organizations such as fixed base operators. The paper analyzes the specific type of services that these organizations provide, the range of employment opportunities offered by them and what changes have taken place, particularly following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The paper concludes that fixed base operators represent an important component in the nation's aviation industry, employment opportunities at fixed base operators are good and the salary ranges offered by these organizations are competitive.

"In the United States, a number of organizations play an important role in keeping aircraft well maintained and in training civilian pilots, including fixed base operators. According to Andrews and O'Neil (2000), "Fixed base operators provide a variety of services at civilian airports including charter flights, line service (refueling), maintenance, aircraft rental, aircraft storage, and flight training" (p. 17). There have been trends and legislation that have affected the way these organizations operate over the years, though, and these issues are discussed further below."

From the Paper
"Increased competition, global economic aspects, and terrorist attacks have forced both domestic and international airlines to significantly cut costs, to reduce their scope of operations through outsourcing to subsidiaries, and to improve flexibility and responsiveness through the empowerment of management. These trends are increasingly supported by new developments in information technology and information systems. Technological advances, supported by increased user expertise and familiarity with technology, have allowed information technology to break away from its' traditional constraints. In addition to difficulties in identifying and measuring potential benefits and costs, problems inflicted as a result of growing dependence on information technology have forced many airlines to establish management control mechanisms. These mechanisms are those such as the appraisal of potential investments, the evaluation of their deliverables, and options to offer similar public services at a lower cost to consumers."

Abstract
The paper explains that a bilateral air transport agreement (ATA) is a convention signed by two countries by which they allow one another unrestricted civil aviation within their national boundaries. They grant each other rights to transport and take on and off, passengers, mail and cargo on their air route and territory. The paper discusses how such an agreement has both positive and negative effects, but the paper reveals that the positive outnumber the negative ones and make the contract beneficial for the development of the airline industry, economy, tourism and international relationships. The paper explains that the majority of the bilateral air service agreements must have been beneficial for both parties, since once they expired, new alliances were negotiated and formed.

Conclusions

From the Paper
"There are two main reasons that support the forming of bilateral air transport agreements. First, the governments of the countries involved in the alliance believe that an international agreement and partnership could help protect themselves from numerous enemies and unfair competition.
"The second argument has a rather administrative nature and it regards the air transport companies and the travelers. In this order of ideas, the airline companies would be granted access to several airports and would be able to compete on the air services market by promoting lower prices and higher quality. Clients would be able to choose from a wider range of air transport providers the company that best met their financial and quality demands. This way, customers would be able to choose "the lowest prices that are not discriminatory.""

"Some participants in and observers of the U.S. labor movement have viewed unions as institutions with the potential to establish industrial democracy and socialism. Others have viewed unions as highly conservative institutions returning to workers the status lost in the transition from village societies to urban anonymity. In reality, their role has been more modest. In the early 1980's they enrolled in their ranks only one of five members of the labor force, down from one of four in the 1950's and 1960's. These workers had a somewhat greater say in their work lives and in the halls of Congress and state legislatures. They received somewhat greater pay and were more productive. They sometimes followed the political calls of their leaders and sometimes did not."

2,515 words (approx. 10.1 pages), 8 sources, MLA, $ 76.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
This paper explains that the airline industry remains on the brink of bankruptcy because of 9/11, the dramatic increase in the costs of fuel and increased security costs, which has led to the discretionary control of the airline industry by the Air Transportation Stabilization Board. The author points out that many U.S. airlines have formed international alliances to the benefit of the airlines and their customers; however, these airlines have not experienced a tremendous amount of growth in the last decade. The paper relates that the smaller, more regional airlines, such as Southwest Airlines and the no-frill airline Jet Blue, have developed strategies, which have increased their profits and competitiveness and have been copied by other U.S. and international airlines.

From the Paper
"Southwest's success suggests that it can. JetBlue simply needs to focus on those things that separate it from the competition. While Southwest focused on affordability, JetBlue focuses on reliability. JetBlue has an operational recovery system, which allows planners to select goals before rerouting planes. "The software produces a solution and calculates its costs," after factoring in a plane's maintenance and fuel needs, the experience and availability of the flight crew, and FAA rules. The software will allow JetBlue to move into more markets without losing its reliability edge."
