Global Low-Cost Carrier Market 2015-2019: easyJet, JetBlue Airways, Ryanair & Southwest Airlines Dominate the Skies
M2 - Tue Feb 17, 10:52AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/j7tkbn/global_lowcost) has announced the addition of the "Global Low-Cost Carrier Market 2015-2019" report to their offering. The Global Low Cost Carrier market to grow at a CAGR of 10.42% over the period 2014-2019 LCCs also known as no-frills or budget carriers are the airlines that offer economical airfares. They maintain efficiency and lean operating costs through various measures such as flight operations from secondary airports, standard fleet of similar aircraft, fast turnaround times, distribution through direct channels, and strict cost cutting measures. The launch of fuel efficiency initiatives is a major trend in the market. These initiatives help in reducing fuel costs and increase the operating efficiency of an airline. LCCs have been a force behind the large number of orders for new aircraft and the implementation of several fuel-efficient measures. According to the report, low airfares have been one of the significant competitive advantages of LCCs, when it comes to competing with full service carriers. It has enabled LCCs to grab market share from FSCs and has extensively helped in the growth of the Global Low-cost Carrier market. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges faced by the market is that LCCs are vulnerable to economic uncertainties. This is primarily because of their low-fare business model and dependence on the Price-conscious Passenger segment. The slowdown in economic growth might affect the growth of the LCC market.
