When researching flights, I looked into three airlines, Jetstar, Qantas and Air New Zealand. They all provided flights arriving and departing in June 2018 and are sufficiently under the $1740 budget. Each options provide various features that differentiates them. However, the most efficient way to spend this money is with Qantas’s option one.
The time each airline’s plane departs and arrives is an important feature to consider when choosing a flight. The Qantas airline provides a plane from Brisbane is at 08:45 and arrives at 13:55. This leaves enough time for breakfast beforehand and another plane meal. Another Qantas plane departs at 18:45 and arrives in Auckland at 23:50. Once we arrive at the hotel, it would be the next day, therefore wasting a day. Plus, with everyone tired, it is very dangerous to drive while feeling fatigued. The Air New Zealand plane departs at 6:30 and arrives at Auckland at 12:35. The plan does not provide meals so we would not receive

While Qantas provides everything with the initial price, Jetstar required an extra bundle for everyone to receive a sufficient amount of benefits that is still less than what Qantas provided. It includes baggage and meals but the benefits stops there. While Qantas provided an abundant of features for a reasonable price. In the end, Jetstar’s voyage costs $292.79 more than Qantas. With this airline, we receive 7kg of carry-on and 20kg of checked baggage, which is 10kg less than Qantas’s 30kg of checked baggage. The 20kg was a benefit, along with a meal, of the Plus bundle which costs a $294 total on each trips. Aside from the additional 10kg that Qantas provides, their planes include in-flight movies while Jetstar does not. Overall, Jetstar is much more expensive than Qantas and does not even provide their regular benefits, meaning Qantas would provide us with a more money-efficient
Qantas is one of the reputed and oldest airlines in the world. Qantas was born in Winston, Queensland in the year 1920. The abbreviation is Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial service limited. It is headquartered at Sydney one of the largest building block in Australia, it is worth 50 million Australian Dollars.
Qantas has undertaken significant changes over the last decade to cope with internal and external factors such as the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which effectively reduced the demand for international travel. Qantas initially reduced its international travel flying capacity by 11%. Fortunately, the collapse of Ansett which halted domestic competition in the Australian aviation industry which had dropped the bidding price war for consumer finances, softened the blow on September 12, 2001.

Qantas is the oldest airline in the English speaking world. It was founded by the three aviation pioneers Hudson Fysh, Paul McGinness and Fergus McMaster as the Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Service in 1920 and has grown from one aircraft which offered air taxi services and joyrides to a vast, complex fleet operating all over the world. By 1930 Qantas’ air routes had expanded to reach up to North Eastern Australia and was later purchased in 1947 by the Australian Federal Government.
Due to the increased use of the internet, it is becoming more and more easier to book online. This allows customers to book flights easier and increase Jet2’s revenue. Revenue is increased through not having to deliver or post tickets out to its customers, in comparison with other non-internet based airlines. It is believed that over 97% of Jet2’s customers book online, which further highlights Jet2’s emphasis on online bookings.
Spirit addresses “price” by attempting to get the lowest possible fair for their potential customers. They have instituted their “unbundling” strategy that essentially removes all the conveniences that other airlines afford. Fees for checked bags, fees for flight changes, and no complementary in-flight beverages are just a few of the cost-trimming techniques employed. This strategy allows Spirit to come up with impossibly low fares. It also conforms to customers who just want to get from point A to point B without paying extra for services they don’t use. This strategy, coupled with an in-your-face “promotion” ploy, has made Spirit Airlines “the most profitable airline in the U.S.” (Nicas, 2012).
Despite the growth in the market, Qantas International’s market share has been falling over the past 10years, from 34% in FY02 to 16% in FY13. The entry of Virgin Australia in 2000 in part explains this, however Virgin’s growth also coincided with the demise of Ansett in 2001 “… Virgin Blue will initially increase capacity on existing routes while evaluating what c...

The E190 CASM is approximately 12% higher than A320. The E190 RASM is 30% higher than A320. E190 also has significant lower acquisition costs compared to A320. This reduces the financial break-even point for the flight operation. Comparing to other regional jets, E190 also has 34% less fuel consumption and higher utilization (10-11 hours vs. 8 hours/day) while offering more seating capacity allowing Jet Blue to service wider range of destinations. Additionally, E190 and A320 both can be operated interchangeably during peak and off-peak hours depending upon the demand. Also, use of E190 to feed A320 customers improves utilization of existing airport facilities and reduced downtime for crew members. This synergy provided Jet Blue added flexibility and more efficient operation. These are some of the reasons why E190 makes it a more economical strategic choice as it is well aligned with the low cost element part of its business strategy and can continue to provide an advantage over its
In a dysfunctional time for the airline industry, most airlines, especially major carriers, are adapting the concept of "doing less with more." One low-cost carrier, JetBlue, is changing the domestic aviation landscape in this regard and is defying the odds. Here is a company that has examined each marketing mix elements carefully, has adapted them to its customer’s needs, and is succeeding because of this approach.
Geographic As the nature of air travel is largely logistical, it is hard to talk about the industry without addressing geography. Airlines don't just have to market to customers in terms of geographics, the airline industry is geographic; getting a customer from where they are to where they want to be. Internationally speaking, Australia is a slight disadvantage because of its location compared to other developed nations. The majority of global travellers do not typically pass through Australia on-route to another destination; Australia is the end of the line. Cities such as Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Dubai are known as ‘hubs’ because they have large numbers of travellers who must pass through them in order to progress to another leg of their journey.
