ABSTRACT

Today, there are two major airline business models that characterize the world’s aviation market: the full service airlines and the low cost airlines. Both of them are playing their role well in the market, targeting different segments, also on the other hand also complementing each other. Lately, Singapore Airlines is going to launch a new no-frills low cost subsidiary airline, operating wide body aircraft on medium and long haul routes. Scoot will likely become the name of this new subsidiary, which will begin their operation on 2012.

The purpose of this research is to define Scoot’s target audience and propose creative strategy to position Scoot in the market in order to fulfill market demands.

This report is based on case study of low cost airlines market, travelling behavior and statistics, and some market surveys using information obtained in interviews with related respondents and public questionnaires.

The results show that Scoot has a great chance to lead in low-cost airlines game market. There are many possibilities that Scoot can take and there are still a lot of unfulfilled market demands from their target audience.

Keywords: Low-Cost Airline, Singapore Airlines Subsidiary, Market Analysis

    Southwest Airlines

    This is the historic background of an American Airline company called the Southwest Airlines Co. based in Dallas which still exists and operates with great success between 57 cities in 26 states of the US, by over 300 airplanes , providing primarily short-haul, high frequency, point to point, low fare service . Through this essay we will see an analysis of the company 's advantages and disadvantages through a SWOT Analysis. We will try to localize the problems of the company at the time and in the case of a future expansion, and we will try to give a number of alternative solutions and chose one of them. The Southwest Airlines is a company that has done its first movements in the airline world in 1971 after many efforts for its opening through legal battles with competitors that did not believe that there was any particular reason why the another airline company should exist among all the others already existing. The different things that the new airline company provided were many and very interesting. The idea started from two friends Rolling King, and investment advisor, and Herb Kelleher, his lawyer, who met in order to discuss the idea of Rolling King for a low-fare, no- frills airline to fly between three major cities in Texas. The outcome of this discussion was in reality the decision of the two men to go for something that they believed would work, even though they were not positive about that. After all the legal battles between the two men and the airline companies of Texas at the time who believed it was not necessary for another airline company to enter the market, battles that prevented the operation of the company for three whole years, Southwest Airlines Co. had become a reality. Other legal battles followed in the future that justified the Southwest Airlines but left the company broke, while during the first year of its operations made losses and the earnings for the next half a year were balancing with costs. Gladly the recovery came soon and by…

    SW built its success by developing strategically aligned internal resources and capabilities (Exhibit 1) and executing on a highly focused strategy centered on cost control. SW’s commitment to simplicity and consistency, operationalized across all key business activities (i.e., use of only one type of plane, non-hub and spoke route system, simplified baggage handling system, minimal in-flight services, etc.), allowed SW to decrease turn times and ultimately keep costs low. This resulted in a low-cost, highly efficient domestic airline business that could profitably operate quick turnaround, short-haul, point-to-point flights from secondary airports. Consequently, SW could deliver the important consumer benefits of everyday low unrestricted fares for convenient, frequently scheduled flights and reliable on-time departures. SW’s business practices also created an entirely new service model that would significantly grow any market SW entered. Consumers who…
