The business has never been tougher.

 

Global air traffic is recovering from the COVID crisis, but the post-COVID world is very
different.  Airlines, airports, and policymakers face some fundamental questions:

• How can an airline optimise its network and fleet to stay alive and aim for profitability
  in this radically different market?

• How can an airport tailor its offer to maximise the chances of new air service, or even
  to retain as much as possible of its pre-COVID network?

• How can a public administration ensure that future air service development
  recovery benefits the wider community and aligns with public policy?

• And how can industry stakeholders support the development of more environmentally-friendly
  aviation solutions?

​

We can provide expert advice and guidance, drawing on decades spent helping aviation stakeholders
with strategy, insight, and policy support.

​

Here are a few of our successful projects in recent years:

• Redesign a regional airline's network to deliver 25% better utilisation with more attractive schedules
  and no additional crew requirements

• Identify a new base for an airline, design the network, and negotiate the best multi-stakeholder
  incentive deal

• Carry out a detailed analysis of fleet alternatives for a Middle Eastern flag carrier, culminating in a new fleet strategy

• Redesign the schedule and set out a turnaround plan for a loss-making Low Cost Carrier

• Pitch an underserved airport as a new base for an airline, enabling it to serve a lucrative niche market

• Prepare and implement a strategic plan for development of state-owned airport and associated aviation industry cluster

• Conduct a detailed feasibility study into Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production for a national aviation regulator

• Model the pan-European air traffic network to estimate the impact of different policy measures on air traffic and emissions
