Classic charter airlines are also becoming highly aggressive in terms of pricing. Quite often traditional charter airlines like Condor in Germany now sell more than 40% of their seats through the web. But there is also pressure inside the LCC community. Although the expected blood bath has not yet taken place, the battle for passengers is getting tougher due to airlines expanding their fleets, adding new routes or merging.<br /><br />How are low cost airlines responding to these challenges?<br /><br />Fewer airlines are now sticking to a purely low cost model with point-to-point routes and seat-only business over the internet. Today we are seeing more hybrid models which, in addition to offering low cost, are also beginning to offer networks and connecting flights. Code sharing is being practiced with partners and fixed quotas are being negotiated with tour operators.<br /><br />After low-cost airlines, which offer limited comfort for cheaper tickets, the era of the “hybrid” has started in the skies. This new concept is rapidly spreading among companies. Comfort standards are high in this system, but extra services are charged extra. The concept is closely followed by businesspeople, as well as the middle-high income group. Leading the pack are JetBlue and Virgin America in the United States, flybe, Germanwings and bmi Baby in Europe. In long-range flights, Air Asia of Malaysia utilizes the concept successfully.<br /><br />As Virgin America does, a passenger could fly first class provided he/she pays the difference. Every seat has personal screens that offer advanced entertainment systems. Watching TV is free. Also, one can choose and listen to songs from an mp3 archive that consists of at least 2,000 to 3,000 songs.<br /><br />The key paid service is that the passenger can order food or refreshments from their seat. There is no need for cabin crew to wander around, you can choose the item you would like to have from the screen. Payment is done with a credit card, by using the remote of the entertainment system as a card slip. In two minutes, you receive what you ordered. Starting prices are $5 for sandwiches, $2 for refreshments and $3 for alcoholic beverages, very reasonable. You can also choose from movies and pay by using your credit card. This service is priced at a minimum of $8. The system also offers wireless Internet service, for a price ranging from $8 to $12. One can also connect an iPhone or mp3 player to the entertainment system, watching one’s own movies or listening to one’s own music.<br /><br />Hybrid companies that wish to get a share of the pie are signing cooperation agreements with big airlines, widening their networks. These airlines give single-ticket prices for connect flights. Also, with customer loyalty programs, they encourage passengers to fly more and collect miles.<br /><br />And for sure Syphax is much more LCC than Virgin America or JetBlue which companies everybody calls LCC.Purgernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-11271915594239912092014-04-03T06:09:11.246+02:002014-04-03T06:09:11.246+02:00@nemjee

Or how about that fuel provided by NIS in BEG was 50% more expensive. Or the fact that T1 actually belonged to JAT and that Wizz was using the terminal without paying a single cent in fees to JAT. I find that the comments from Wizz are nothing but bitter hate remarks indirect to Air Serbia. The fact that a Hungarian airline has opened base in BEG is remarkable, would Air Serbia be welcome to open a base in BUD? Yet Wizz Air hasnt been kicked out of BEG, it is just being made to pay the same fees as other airlines using BEG do.

I bet BEG was a major cash machine for them. At the same time, I don't have any doubt that EY had its hand in BEG's new charges. This may be a start of new protectionist policy, similar to pre-LCC period at BEG. Smells like Dumping 101: 1) promotional prices to attract passengers, 2) weaken/remove competition, 3) increase the prices. <br /><br />Let EY have BEG, but open BJY, INI, KVO for LCCs. <br /><br />my2centsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263744212273266286.post-77202674681368941772014-04-02T21:25:30.552+02:002014-04-02T21:25:30.552+02:00Wizzair neka ide .
