Airlines and their home airports
Estonian Aviation Seminar 13-14 November 2014 Airlines and their home airports Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation Gert
2
Introduction Airline network strategy starts with the Home airport
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports Introduction ■ Airlines produce connections between two airports ■ Every single flight is produced by 1 airline + 2 airports ■ Airline- en airport network systems is an integrated value chain Airline network strategy starts with the Home airport 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
3
The Home Airport Size of the home airline
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ The Airline’s home airport’s catchement area defines Size of the home airline ■ The Airline’s home airport’s location defines Network structure of the home airline ■ Airline and airport need to exploit their shared value 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
4
The Home Airport ■ Starting point for any airline network
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Starting point for any airline network fragmented home huge home small home multiple homes peripheral home nice home small home at a very central geographical location... Home?...home is where the markets are... 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
5
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport home location determines airline network potential Wealthy population island global city No surface alternatives dense population central poor population leisure peripheral 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
6
The Home Airport catchment area geographic location O+D potential
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Every airport has two potential forces relevant to any airline: catchment area geographic location O+D potential Hub potential O+D = Origin & Destination 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
7
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location defines its O+D potential How many passengers need, want or like to fly from or to that location? and can they afford the fare? - Population size - Economic activity - Wealth Accessibility Surface alternatives Examples: LHR CDG FRA MPX O+D potential 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation

The Home Airport - Airway routing central location: Directionality
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location determines Hub potential - Airway routing Directionality Examples: AMS ZRH VIE IST central location: Hub Potential catchment area 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
9
The Home Airport Airway routing and Directionality:
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location determines Hub potential Airway routing and Directionality: From this point of view, HEL is a peripherical location 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
10
The Home Airport Airway routing en Directionality:
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location determines Hub potential Airway routing en Directionality: Now the position of HEL is very central! 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
11
The Home Airport Hub potential Airway routing and Directionality:
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location determines Hub potential Airway routing and Directionality: ■ Northern locations have global HUB potential 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
12
The Home Airport either one of two or both forces O+D potential
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Every airport has two potential forces relevant for the airline ■ Airline networks are designed for optimal utilization of either one of two or both forces O+D potential Hub potential 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
13
The Home Airport - Global coverage City pair driven Capacity driven
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location with high O+D demand - Global coverage City pair driven Capacity driven Hub connectivity is secondary O+D HUB 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
14
The Home Airport - Selected coverage Hub destination driven
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location at a central location - Selected coverage Hub destination driven Frequency driven Hub connectivity is key HUB O+D 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
15
The Home Airport - Global coverage O+D/Hub destinations
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports The Home Airport ■ Airport location with high O+D demand at central location - Global coverage O+D/Hub destinations Capacity variety Mix of Hub connectivity and O+D demand O+D HUB 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation

Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports Connecting the Home Airport ■ HUB need from&to home is the inverse of the same connectivity need at the destination Vienna Destination airport Washington San Francisco Bangkok Singapore Johannesburg O+D O+D Hub Daily flights to scheduled in transfer banks Hub 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
21
scheduled in transfer banks
Estonian Aviation Seminar Airlines and Airports Connecting the Home Airport ■ Hub airlines need hub connections ■ Hub airlines need hub connectivity at the destination ■ That destination is the home airport of another airline O+D O+D Hub Connection to scheduled in transfer banks Hub 13 November 2014 Hogeschool van Amsterdam Aviation
