Airline/Airport Restructuring

Most businesses will face stress or distress at some point in their life cycle. Airlines and airports typically once a decade. Others help you only clean the balance sheet. We help you fix the business for sustainability.

Airline/Airport Turnaround

A restructuring is static. It needs a dynamic turnaround to change the underlying business to make you more competitive. Changing how you do business and setting you on a better path for the future.

Crisis Management

Stop the bleeding. Focus efforts. Paddle in the same direction. Treat the cancer and rescue the patient. Others spend months analyzing your business and processes while your company dies. We deploy experts with deep experience in turnarounds to help you stay alive long enough to receive the treatment.

Airline Strategy

Helping airlines to realize their maximum potential through clear, consistent and well executed strategy. We assist you to grow and compete better.

Pricing Strategy

Price is the critical driver of customer purchase decisions. We assist airlines to maximize revenue by ensuring products are packaged appropriately and are priced effectively. Getting the price right requires a deep knowledge of the market and of buying behaviour.

Yield Management

Targeting the optimal mix between volume and value, load factor and yield drives profitability. Our airline consultants help airlines, railways, hotels and others to challenge structure, processes, skills, systems and data in both leg-based and O&D environments.

Airline Interlining, Codeshares and SPAs

We help airlines to evaluate new markets. Using a detailed financial evaluation, we help airlines to assess and quantify profitable partnerships.

Airline Alliances & Partnerships

We assist airlines to identify the best fit partnership strategy - bi-laterals only or full alliance membership - and to maximize their potential from that partnership.

Airline Joint Ventures

The next big trend in consolidation where cross-border mergers and acquisitions are limited by regulatory barriers. We assist airlines to identify whether JVs are right for them and to select the right partnerships to maximize revenue and strengthen competitiveness.

Network Strategy & Planning

Deciding where to fly is the most important strategic decision an airline makes. Our airline consultants assist you to optimize the network, maximize loads, yields and connections for stronger competitiveness.

Fleet Planning & Scheduling

Second only to deciding where to fly is ensuring an airline operates the right equipment. Most airline failures can be traced back to an inefficient fleet mix. We assist airlines to select the optimal aircraft mix for their market and mission & to most efficiently utilize the aircraft assets they have.

Aircraft Selection

Fleet planning is only effective if the ailrine follows through with sourcing the right types to perform the mission which was defined in the fleet plan. Aircraft selection has as much to do with techical requirements as financial constraints and availability on the market.

Product Design

Fare families, seats, seamless airport connectivity, in-flight entertainment, etc. We assist airlines to ensure they deploy the right product for the market in which they compete. This means aligning the supply of product to the expectations of the market relative to effective competitors.

Airline Loyalty Programmes

Most airline loyalty programmes do not actually promote loyalty to the airline, nor do they endear customers. We assist clients to quantify the value of loyalty programmes and to use detailed analysis to ensure the design of the programme effectively drives demand and higher yields.

Sales & Distribution

Converting the opportunities your corporate and commercial strategies have identified into hard revenue requires a strong sales and market presence. Our airline consultants assist airlines to create a powerful sales organization to deliver superior revenue earning capability.

Organization Design

Crafting an airline organization requires more than drawing org charts. Effective organization design requires combining structure with incentives and which drive performance. Our experts custom-tailor the organization design to every client's specific needs and cultural environment.

Competition & Anti-Trust

The airline industry worldwide is undergoing another round of consolidation due both because of ongoing de-regulation and because of airline's choosing scale to achieve lower costs. Our experts have extensive experience working with regulators and airlines to ensure competition thrives.

Cargo Management

The most profitable airlines understand the need to earn revenue above and below the floor. Our experts have worked with leading passenger and cargo airlines to drive cargo strategy, sales and revenue management.
