State of The Airline Industry – What Do We Do Now? November 15, 2012

William S. Swelbar MIT International Center for Air Transportation

“Isn’t It Interesting?” The US airline industry is marginally profitable when……

– Economic trends are weak – Consumer confidence is anything but – Manufacturing activity showing little to no expansion – Passenger traffic up; cargo traffic is in decline – European economic activity troubled – Premium travel trends are exhibiting little growth

Airport Costs as a Percentage of Airline Operating Expenses

Airline actions to ensure sustainability run contrary to airport interests – None more so than capacity cutting

– Consolidation is a second order effect negatively impacting airports

-Airports need to establish more passenger development strategies

-Airports need to continue shifting the revenue share away from Airline dependent revenue

-Airports need to identify international connection passenger opportunities, especially with beyond markets with alliance carriers

-Airports must continue to build alternative risk abatement programs with their communities

Concluding Thoughts

Concluding Thoughts

Airline winners and losers are being identified – Airport winners and losers less understood although the

market is at work • Seasonal capacity adjustments are likely to be a bigger part

of the vernacular

New School What Do We Do Now?

What We Are Doing Now November 15, 2012

GENERAL OVERVIEW OF ENGAGEMENT AND DELIVERABLES OBJECTIVE

• To assist FNL in the development and implementation of a comprehensive Air Service Development & Marketing Strategic Plan that will give direction and recommendations to the Fort Collins/Loveland communities to regain commercial passenger air service.

• The Plan will make the recommendation that FNL will re-position its service area, through in-depth market research, and be the Airport of choice for Northern Colorado, Southeastern Wyoming and Southwest Nebraska. Furthermore, will assist FNL to promote new commercial air service by creating a detailed new air service development, communications, and marketing plan focused on attracting out-bound business passengers and in-bound leisure passengers.· Will also work to improve the quality of air service for residents of the Fort Collins – Loveland Municipal Airport (FNL) catchment area by studying and developing a wingless flight program that allows FNL to serve as an offsite location for ticketing, check-in, and security screening for flights originating at Denver.

COMMERCIAL AIR SERVICE ROR ON INVESTMENT – WICHITA CASE STUDY

Prepared by Center for Economic Development and Business Research W. Frank Barton School of Business Wichita State University Janet Harrah, Director Kasey Jolly, Regional Economic Analyst Wichita State University, 1845 Fairmount St., Wichita, KS 67260-0121 Telephone: (316) 978-3225 Fax: (316) 978-3950 www.wichita.edu/cedbr

Economic and Fiscal Impact of AirTran Airways on the Wichita MSA February 2008

Good airline service is an important factor in urban economic development. Frequent service to a variety of destinations at competitive rates are reflected in a high level of passenger enplanements, which facilitates easy face-to-face contact with businesses in other cities, attracting new firms to the metro area and stimulating employment at established companies. Recognizing the importance of air service to the area’s economic growth, business and government leaders spearheaded the development of the FairFares program in the spring of 2002. As a joint public/private initiative between the city of Wichita and local businesses, the FairFares program was designed to attract and retain new low-cost carriers to Wichita’s Mid-Continent Airport through the use of subsidies.

Economic and Fiscal Impact of AirTran Airways on the Wichita MSA February 2008

Low-cost carrier AirTran Airway’s, entrance into the Wichita market generated positive economic and fiscal impacts for the Wichita MSA. The economic impact of low-cost air service occurs in a number of ways including: • Increased sales, wages and employment generated by business activity.

In the case of this analysis, the operations of AirTran were analyzed including the firm’s Wichita employment, payroll, and expenditures of AirTran flight crews on overnight stays.

• Increased airport activity measured by enplanements and increased airport spending, such as increased concession and parking revenues.

• Decreased ticket prices as a result of increased competition, benefiting all Mid-Continent passengers whether flying AirTran or not.

Taking into account multiplier impacts, the average annual number of Wichita metro area jobs attributed to low-cost carrier AirTran Airways’ entrance into the Wichita market totaled 9,720 during the six-year analysis period from 2002 through 2007. The average annual payroll for these jobs totaled $283.4 million.
