An Airline Mitigates Challenges Associated with Reducing Prices and Rising Service Standards


The global airline industry has experienced mixed growth in recent years. While passenger and cargo traffic have surged, revenue growth has been sluggish due to volatile fuel prices, intense competition, and declining freight rates. Additionally, the reduction in world trade value has curbed demand for cargo services. However, rising global per capita income and economic growth in emerging markets have fueled passenger transportation demand, positioning the industry for future revenue expansion.
