Inflight social distancing will kill short-haul LCC travel: IATA

21 April 2020 By Seth Miller 10 Comments

Will some these U/LCC seats remain off the market? And will that kill the airlines flying them??

Blocking middle seats or even sitting passengers every other row is not a problem when load factors hover in the mid-teens, occasionally peaking at 30% for an especially busy flight. But if social distancing rules remain in place IATA executives believe the LCC market could collapse as a financially unsustainable endeavor.

Swoop: A marketing machine that happens to fly planes

18 September 2018 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

Canadian upstart Swoop, the ULCC arm of WestJet, aims to succeed as an airline mostly by not really acting like an airline. Sure, there are airplanes and pilots and such, but CEO Steven Greenway is adamant that change come quickly. And he’s keen to dramatically upset the North American aviation market along the way.

Sky-high dreams or firmly grounded: The business of connected aircraft maintenance remains in question

23 August 2018 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

“Inflight connectivity doesn’t just create revenue, it could save the airline industry US$15bn a year.”

That’s a bold claim from Inmarsat and the research it commissioned from the London School of Economics (LSE). Much of the savings comes from better weather forecasting and the associated effects: reducing delays and fuel burn. Part of the forecast savings comes from predictive maintenance opportunities, allowing the plane to track its own performance and use on-board connectivity solutions to report back to headquarters when operations are less than nominal. The so-called Internet of Things for Aviation (IoT/A) has long been held up as the financial savior of the connectivity platforms, delivering the necessary financial support to justify installations. What will it take to realize the $3-46bn in annual savings the research revealed? A lot of work, and it is unclear which connectivity vendors are truly committed to that effort.
