5. Define low cost carrier
A low-cost carrier or low-cost airline (also known as a no-frills, discount or
budget carrier or airline) is an airline that generally has lower fares and less
comforts. To make up for revenue lost in decreased ticket prices, the airline
may charge for extras like food, priority boarding, seat allocating, and baggage
etc.
6. Advantage of low cost carrier
It saves you precious time
This is one advantage that many find irresistible. Time is a very precious
commodity today, and if you can fly for just a small increase in price compared
to a train journey, then it is definitely worthwhile.
It promotes great vacations
Travel costs are a major part of anyone‟s holiday plans. when you find low
cost flights to your favorite destination, this mean you have more to spend and
therefore makes your vacation better. Uno finding low cost flights to your
favorite destination, you would be thrilled because you get to have a great
holiday.
It is extremely convenient
One of the most important of the advantages of low cost flights is the
convenience of travelling. You do not need to worry anymore about long and
tiresome journeys by bus, train or car. This would invariably involve countless
days on road, living out of a suitcase and staying in uncomfortable hotels. The
flight does away with all this inconvenience.
7. It saves money
Many people compare only the flight ticket cost to the gasoline bill or bus
ticket cost (or any other form of travel you choose). the difference would still
be quite a lot, and therefore are happy that by choosing alternative
modes of travel they are saving some money. But is it so really.
The advantages of low cost flights
The advantage of low cost flights also include the fact that you would be able
to cover more ground and therefore helps you to be more productive. Besides,
flying is fun and everybody Should experience it at one time or other and the
low cost flights offer you just the right opportunity to do so.
8. Disadvantages of Low Cost carrier
Extra payment for baggage:
Travelers must realize that practically everything apart from the actual flight
ticket costs extra. they will need to pay extra for hold baggage, and it cost one
person nearly £100 to transport golf clubs. There is no charge for those
travelling with only hand luggage, but this is becoming more difficult to do,
owing to so many recent restrictions on hand luggage for airline flights.
The high cost of food:
Food and drink will not be provided on the plane unless the traveler pays.
Some passengers have complained about the high cost of meals on board these
flights. It is quite possible to take one‟s own food on the flight, but again,
carrying drink may be a problem due to restrictions on liquids which can be
carried in hand luggage.
Specific seat
With many of these airlines one cannot book a specific seat, and checking in
can resemble a rug by scrum, with everyone trying to get a good seat. It can
seem more like bus travel in the rush hour than airline travel!
9. Changing passenger details
Changing passenger details and/or dates can prove very expensive or even
impossible. It is essential to read the small print before booking.
Quick changes of prices
Prices can change very quickly, even going up while the passenger is booking
on-line. Costs need to be checked carefully.
Passenger worrying about economic situation
Finally, with the recent worrying economic situation, more airlines are
expected to go bust. Many of these will be the low cost airlines. Passengers
need to make sure that they are aware of their rights if the airline does collapse
after they have booked a holiday.
No frills:
Overall, 'no frills' airlines should be treated with care. They do indeed offer
bargains, But travelling with them is not the same as booking a flight with a
more established airline. It‟s worth bearing in mind that sometimes passengers
get exactly what they pay for - no more, no less!

the aircraft door.
Users of power wheelchairs must wait for them to be re-assembled.
They may request to have the chair brought to the aircraft door, or

87. Modernization of airports
The Airports Authority of India (AAI) is undertaking the development and
modernization of all 35 non-metro airports in the country simultaneously and work is
due to be completed by March 2010.
Wholly owned subsidiaries of AAI are being created for the development and
operation of these airports. According to the AAI, it has already awarded work orders
for terminal buildings at 13 airports, and for airside development, including runway,
taxiway, apron, fire station, control tower and isolation bay, at 19 airports.
Two greenfield airports at Bangalore and Hyderabad are being developed .The first
phase is planned to be finished by end-2008.
The other two metro airports - Chennai, Kolkata -- may soon be on the modernization
path. At least 10 non-metro airports are being developed as strategic airports serving
the region or respective states, and at least a few more non-metro airports are being
positioned strategically as regional hub airports or nodes providing better connectivity
to overall airport network and feeding international network through hub/metro
airports.
With these developments in aviation infrastructure, we may also see some airports
making money not purely on passenger traffic, but also by means of cargo, logistics,
and real estate projects being developed adjacent to airports.
Domestic passenger movement across airports is likely to grow at a 20-25 per cent
till 2010, and passenger traffic is expected to increase to around 120 million by 2010.
Hence modernization, privatization and development of airports in the form of
greenfield and/or brownfield airports is the need of the hour.
88. Modernization of airport

passengers will use this terminal.
91. Spoilage
CABIN SPOILAGE
Loss of revenue occurring due to passengers No-Show or
cancel late on full flights.
DISCOUNT SPOILAGE
Loss of revenue resulting from turning away discount
customers because discount seats were not available at
the time of booking, subsequently the flight departs with a
significant number of empty seats.
HIGHER YIELD SPILL
The loss of revenue resulting from turning away late high
yield demand because too many lower yield seats were
sold early.
DIFFERENTIAL PRICING
An airline seat can be viewed by a purchaser as a single
commodity, the desire is to purchase at the lowest price.
93. Aircraft is expensive
Expensive aircrafts
Gulfstream G550: $59.9 million
Boeing business jet: $55.5 million
Bombardier Global Express XRS: $47.7 million
Gulfstream V-SP: $45 million
Assault Falcon 7X: $41 million
Most expensive aircraft in the world is airbus a380.
At an investment of $13 billion, this double-decker aircraft took more
than seven years.
The Airbus A380 have become the most expensive airline tickets in the
world.
While the world’s largest passenger plane is readied for its inaugural
flight, Singapore Airlines are making a killing by selling tickets on eBay.

The aircrafts like airbus, Boeing. Now a days aircrafts are coming with
various facilities and service. Lots of people can travel in one aircraft.
But problem with the aircraft is too expensive. So aviation industry

95. High fuel price
Rising fuel costs hit airlines hard. Fuel expenses are expected to total $61.2
billion this year, compared to $41.2 billion in 2007, according to the Air
Transport Association.
A few years ago, fuel was 20 percent of an airline's cost. It's now up to 70
percent for carriers.
Its utilizes a lot of resources to do its thing fuel, rubber, metal, etc hence
getting too expensive.
As fuel price have climbed, the inverse relationship between fuel prices and
airline stock price has been demonstrated moreover, the rising fuel price
have led to increase in the air fares.
Airlines will eventually charge fees for other luxuries and perks, like window
seats, aisle seats, seats in exit rows and snacks.
Airlines may reduce the frequency of flights in the routes severely impairing
India’s well developed airline network. As destinations begin to lose
connectivity, passengers will either respond by reducing their frequency of
air travel or choose to travel by train or buses
It is like running several airlines non-stop 24/7. Generally Airlines too are a
24-hour business. The airline industry is under extreme pressure
If they keep raising their fees to passengers then the passenger per plane
ratios drop off, meaning flight are unprofitable.
97. Infrastructure
The Outlook
The aviation industry in India is improving everyday. The future is bright enough as
per the experts worldwide. Here's am outlook about India aviation industry, the
looking crisis, and the global response.
With the global economic recovery on the horizon, the aviation industry in India is
poised for a spectacular takeoff. Unprecedented changes are anticipated in the
aviation sector as the domestic passenger segment is expected to register annual
growth rates of over 50% . Even the international passenger segment is slated to
grow at 25% annually as per industry forecasts
The looming crisis
the current situation in the industry continues to alarm policy makers, regulators
and industry leaders alike.
Adding to the woes of the industry is the abysmal airport infrastructure visible in the
acute shortage of parking bays, takeoff / landing slots& air traffic control facilities
Shortage of pilots, engineering, all department staffs,
The recent hike in the price of Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) has further added to the
anguish of the airlines as it has the potential to take the industry on a downward
spiral that can prove fatal.
The industry has embarked on a cost-cutting spree and that too with a vengeance.
