On my way to London flying from Athens airport E. Veniselos my camera caught chemtrails coming from Easy Jet and some other commercial flights! Many commercial flights have very cheap tickets and it was a wonder to me how they manage to keep their companies alive. Well, there is the answer: by making us dead! This has to stop!!! I am asking kindly all those who may have more info about this to contact me. Mostly the people who work in these or any other airlines to give me any kind of info and I pledge to keep their anonymity. It is their own people down there on earth and their silence is killing them! Think of your families, think of the innocent children and help us stop this genocide! And to all those who buy these tickets -think twice! You pay less money for a major crime!!!

Southwest Airlines Operations - A Strategic Perspective

2012-01-26T04:34:00.001-05:00

Background:

Southwest Airlines is the largest airline measured by number of passengers carried each year within the United States. It is also known as a ‘discount airline’ compared with its large rivals in the industry. Rollin King and Herb Kelleher founded Southwest Airlines on June 18, 1971. Its first flights were from Love Field in Dallas to Houston and San Antonio, short hops with no-frills service and a simple fare structure. The airline began with one simple strategy: “If you get your passengers to their destinations when they want to get there, on time, at the lowest possible fares, and make darn sure they have a good time doing it, people will fly your airline.” This approach has been the key to Southwest’s success. Currently, Southwest serves about 60 cities (in 31 states) with 71 million total passengers carried (in 2004) and with a total operating revenue of $6.5 billion. Southwest is traded publicly under the symbol “LUV” on NYSE.

Facts:

* The first major airline to fly a single type of aircraft (Boeing 737s)

* The first major airline to offer ticketless travel system wide including a frequent flier program based on number of trips and not number of miles flown.

* The first airline to offer a profit-sharing program to its Employees (instituted in 1973).

* The first major airline to develop a Web site and offer online booking. In 2001, about 40 percent ($2.1 billion) of its passenger revenue was generated through online bookings at [http://www.southwest.com]. Southwest's cost per booking via the Internet is about $1, compared to a cost per booking through travel agents of $6 to $8.

Key competitive advantages:

* Low Operational costs / High Operational Efficiency

* Award winning customer service

* Human Resource practices / Work culture

Operations Analysis – Competitive Dimensions:

Southwest clearly has a distinct advantage compared to other airlines in the industry by executing an effective and efficient operations strategy that forms an important pillar of its overall corporate strategy. Given below are some competitive dimensions that will be studied in this paper.

1. Operational Costs and Efficiency

2. Customer Service

3. Employee/Labor Relations

4. Technology

1. Operational Costs and Efficiency

After all, the airline industry overall is in shambles. But, how does Southwest Airlines stay profitable? Southwest Airlines has the lowest costs and strongest balance sheet in its industry, according to its chairman Kelleher. The two biggest operating costs for any airline are – labor costs (approx 40%) followed by fuel costs (approx 18%). Some other ways that Southwest is able to keep their operational costs low is - flying point-to-point routes, choosing secondary (smaller) airports, carrying consistent aircraft, maintaining high aircraft utilization, encouraging e-ticketing etc.

Labor Costs

The labor costs for Southwest typically accounts for about 37% of its operating costs. Perhaps the most critical element of the successful low-fare airline business model is achieving significantly higher labor productivity. According to a recent HBS Case Study, southwest airlines is the “most heavily unionized” US airline (about 81% of its employees belong to an union) and its salary rates are considered to be at or above average compared to the US airline industry. The low-fare carrier labor advantage is in much more flexible work rules that allow cross-utilization of virtually all employees (except where disallowed by licensing and safety standards). Such cross-utilization and a long-standing culture of cooperation among labor groups translate into lower unit labor costs. At Southwest in 4th quarter 2000, total labor expense per available seat mile (ASM) was more than 25% below that of United and American, and 58% less than US Airways.

Carriers like Southwest have a tremendous cost advantage over network airlines simply because their workforce generates more output per employee. In a study in 2001, the productivity of Southwest employees was over 45% higher than at American and United, despite the substantially longer flight lengths and larger average aircraft size of these network carriers. Therefore by its relentless pursuit for lowest labor costs, Southwest is able to positively impact its bottom line revenues.

Fuel Costs

Fuel costs is the second-largest expense for airlines after labor and accounts for about 18 percent of the carrier's operating costs. Airlines that want to prevent huge swings in operating expenses and bottom line profitability choose to hedge fuel prices. If airlines can control the cost of fuel, they can more accurately estimate budgets and forecast earnings. With growing competition and air travel becoming a commodity business, being competitive on price was key to any airline’s survival and success. It became hard to pass higher fuel costs on to passengers by raising ticket prices due to the highly competitive nature of the industry.

Southwest has been able to successfully implement its fuel hedging strategy to save on fuel expenses in a big way and has the largest hedging position among other carriers. In the second quarter of 2005, Southwest’s unit costs fell by 3.5% despite a 25% increase in jet fuel costs. During Fiscal year 2003, Southwest had much lower fuel expense (0.012 per ASM) compared to the other airlines with the exception of JetBlue as illustrated in exhibit 1 below. In 2005, 85 per cent of the airline’s fuel needs has been hedged at $26 per barrel. World oil prices in August 2005 reached $68 per barrel. In the second quarter of 2005 alone, Southwest achieved fuel savings of $196 million. The state of the industry also suggests that airlines that are hedged have a competitive advantage over the non-hedging airlines. Southwest announced in 2003 that it would add performance-enhancing Blended Winglets to its current and future fleet of Boeing 737-700’s. The visually distinctive Winglets will improve performance by extending the airplane’s range, saving fuel, lowering engine maintenance costs, and reducing takeoff noise.

Point-to-Point Service

Southwest operates its flight point-to-point service to maximize its operational efficiency and stay cost-effective. Most of its flights are short hauls averaging about 590 miles. It uses the strategy to keep its flights in the air more often and therefore achieve better capacity utilization.

Secondary Airports

Southwest flies to secondary/smaller airports in an effort to reduce travel delays and therefore provide excellent service to its customers. It has led the industry in on-time performance. Southwest has also been able to trim down its airport operations costs relatively better than its rival airlines.

Consistent aircraft

At the heart of Southwest's success is its single aircraft strategy: Its fleet consists exclusively of Boeing 737 jets. Having common fleet significantly simplifies scheduling, operations and flight maintenance. The training costs for pilots, ground crew and mechanics are lower, because there's only a single aircraft to learn. Purchasing, provisioning, and other operations are also vastly simplified, thereby lowering costs. Consistent aircraft also enables Southwest to utilize its pilot crew more efficiently.

E-Ticketing

The idea of ticketless travel was a major advantage to Southwest because it could lower its distribution costs. Southwest became electronic or ticketless back in the mid-1990s, and today they are about 90-95% ticketless. Customers who use credit cards are eligible for online transactions, and today Southwest.com bookings account for about 65% of total revenue. The CEO Gary Kelly thinks that this idea would grow further and that he wouldn't be surprised if e-ticketing accounted for 75% of Southwest’s revenues by end of 2005. In the past, when there was a 10% travel agency commission paid, it used to cost about $8 a booking. But currently, Southwest is paying between 50 cents and $1 per booking for electronic transactions that translate to huge cost savings.

2. Employee and Labor Relations

Southwest has been highly regarded for its innovative management style. It maintains a relentless focus on high-performance relationships and its people-management practices have been the key to its unparalleled success in the airline industry.

Mission Statement

To Our Employees
“We are committed to provide our Employees a stable work environment with equal opportunity for learning and personal growth. Creativity and innovation are encouraged for improving the effectiveness of Southwest Airlines. Above all, Employees will be provided the same concern, respect, and caring attitude within the organization that they are expected to share externally with every Southwest Customer.”

The Southwest mission statement shows that the company has a strong commitment to its employees. The company affords the same respect to its employees that is provided to its customers. The Southwest mission statement is unique in that it recognizes the importance of its employees within the broader business strategy, which emphasizes superb customer service and operational efficiency. The employees reciprocate the respect, loyalty and trust that Southwest demonstrates. Southwest employees are known for their loyalty, dedication, attitude and innovation. The employees are the distinguishing factor between Southwest and the rest of the airline industry.

Hiring

Southwest hiring policy is unique not only within the airline industry, but also more broadly, and revolves around finding people with the right attitude that will thrive in the Southwest culture. Extensive procedures are employed to hire for positive attitude and dedication. Those who do not posses those qualities are weeded out. Colleen Barrett, a non-operational officer at Southwest, states that

“Hiring is critical, because you cannot institutionalize behavior. Instead, you must identify those people who already practice the behaviors you are looking for. Then you can allow Employees to be themselves and make decisions about Customer service based on common sense and their natural inclinations.” 1

Recruiting and interviewing at Southwest is a two-step process. The first step is a group interview, conducted by employees, where communication skills of potential candidates are evaluated. The next steps in this process are one on one interview, where the candidates' attitudes and orientation toward serving others are evaluated. These hiring criteria apply to all job functions since all Employees at Southwest play a customer service role. A critical part of Southwest operational strategy is that every job at Southwest is a customer service position, whether it directly applies to the customer or whether it is internal.

The table below shows that even though Southwest is the most heavily unionized airline, at approximately 80%, that contract negotiations between the unions and Southwest are much shorter in duration than of the other major carriers. This shows the quality of relationship that Southwest has with its employees and with the unions that represent them.

Culture

Southwest was created as a different kind of company and from its beginnings a unique culture was nurtured. In 1990 Colleen Barrett formed the Southwest Culture Committee. This is unique within the industry and among all large companies. The committee also has a mission statement:

“This group's goal is to help create the Southwest spirit and culture where needed; to enrich it and make it better where it already exists; and to liven it up in places where it might be "floundering". In short, this group's goal is to do "whatever it takes" to create, enhance, and enrich the special Southwest spirit and culture that has made this such a wonderful Company/Family.”

It is this unique approach to company values that has created a culture that differentiates itself from others. Southwest’s culture is the reason why it is successful.

3. Customer Service

The Mission of Southwest Airlines
The mission of Southwest Airlines is dedication to the highest quality of Customer Service delivered with a sense of warmth, friendliness, individual pride, and Company Spirit.

Approach

Herb Kelleher, founder of Southwest, has been quoted as saying that "We're in the Customer service business; we just happen to provide airline transportation".2 Award winning customer service is a distinguishing characteristic of Southwest and it is referred to internally as “Positively Outrageous Service”. It means that from the top to bottom everyone does whatever he or she can to satisfy the customer. This includes Herb Kelleher, who has been known for helping out baggage handlers on Thanksgiving. It is through emphasizing the customer and employee that Southwest is able to differentiate itself from others in the airline industry. On a more technical level, each employee or group within Southwest has his or her own customer. This means that every employee ‘serves’ in one way or another despite not being directly involved with the passenger. The mechanic’s customer is the pilot and the caterer’s is the flight attendant.

Results

It can be said that the "Positively Outrageous Service" that is unique to Southwest “is not the result of a department, or a program, or a mandate from management. It is not secondary to the product; it is the product.” This approach creates the conditions where Employees are more likely to treat customers in ways that distinguish the company from others. There are numerous accounts of passengers who have received exceptional treatment from Southwest employees.

The question that needs to be answered is how Southwest’s customer service is different and why? Is it common for customers of other airlines to rave about their special service? The answer is that it is not. While Southwest does not have a monopoly on people who are kind and who are willing to go above and beyond to satisfy a customer, such behavior is nurtured at Southwest to a much greater extent.

It can then be concluded that the customer service that is inherent to Southwest is a part of its culture. This culture is supported through employee encouragement to do the extra to satisfy the customer. This approach inspires people who would ordinarily only on occasion go out of their way to help someone, to become consistent performers that offer exceptional service all the time. Southwest employees are what differentiate its customer service from the other airlines.

4. Technology

Southwest utilizes technology in many ways to fulfill its business objectives and maintain its efficient operations. According to its CEO, technology equals productivity. Launched in 1996, ticketless travel was first introduced by Southwest. On May 1st 2000, Southwest Airlines introduces "SWABIZ," a portal that assists company travel managers in booking and tracking trips made through its web site [http://www.southwest.com]. There are many new technology initiatives being undertaken currently and some are in the pipeline.

Bar codes in Boarding Passes

Southwest Airlines has invested $12 million during the past three years to standardize corporate and terminal operations on about 10,000 Dell OptiPlex desktop and Latitude notebook computers according to its company executives. Southwest wanted to replace its well known, brightly colored plastic boarding passes with an electronic system with bar-code paper boarding passes. So it installed about 350 touch screen ticket readers powered by Dell OptiPlex desktops. The bar code gives Southwest more information to automatically reconcile the number of boarding passes with the number of passengers that actually board the plane.

Although the technology will help Southwest Airlines remain efficient by consolidating passenger information for the company's 3,000 daily flights, there were concerns it could lengthen the time to get travelers on board. However it was found that scanning each bar code on the boarding passes didn't increase or shorten boarding schedules, but it did take minutes from administrative processes, such as looking up customer records. The new paper bar code system is giving Southwest ticket agents the ability to match a customer record within having to scroll through and log into multiple software screens. The process is much more automated. Once the bar code on the boarding pass is scanned at the terminal gate it checks off the person from the passenger list in real time.

The old process was manual that involved finding the information, scrolling through several software screens from reservations to check-in to boarding. The bar code hardware to scan the boarding passes has been deployed. The company is in the process of replacing customer service back-office equipment at airports including at its headquarters in Dallas.

Software Upgrades

Software applications, such as those used by clerks to check in passengers, are being replaced. Southwest Airlines' internally written "Airport Application Suite" is expected to rollout next year as the company transitions from green screens to Window-based user interface. Similar to Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Southwest Airlines believes in developing in-house the software that runs its operations. The company uses very little off-the-shelf software. There are between 75 and 100 projects in the works each year supported by approximately 900 IT employees.

RFID

Radio frequency identification technology, a favorable alternative to bar-coding for luggage identification, is also on Southwest's radar. It plans to test RFID technology sometime in 2006. Even though, Southwest is playing a little catch-up with other airlines such as Air Tran, Alaska and Champion Airlines, in many cases they are able leapfrog to more sophisticated applications easily having waited longer.

Challenges:

Southwest has emerged very successful, despite the most troubled times in the airline market. However, it faces new challenges in the face of increasing competition from other low fare airlines such as JetBlue, ATA airlines, America West.

Reserved Seating

Due to increasing security guidelines since September 2001, Southwest would need to prepare for assigned (reserved) seating to track its in-flight passengers. This change will involve large technology investments and may impact its gate operations negatively since the current way of unassigned seating has helped in quick gate turnarounds.

Passenger Demand

The keep-it-simple philosophy has served Southwest well. But as its own business grows and grows more complex, with plans to purchase dozens of new aircraft and an expected upsurge in passenger traffic to about 80 million boarding’s a year, the simplicity strategy that has been reflected in the airline's IT philosophy is evolving. The CIO Tom Nealon says that "It's time to adapt our business processes for efficiency. As our airline scales for us to provide the same kind of high-touch customer service, we have to automate a lot of things we've been able to do without technology previously. The challenge is doing that without conceding the customer touch." Southwest is also aggressively pursuing customer relationship management (CRM) techniques and has applications to get insight into customer’s wants and dislikes. According to an interview with its CEO Gary Keller, Southwest has its focus on improving in two areas - customer’s airport experience and in-flight experience.

In-Flight Entertainment

In an overall effort to improve customer’s in-flight experience, in-flight entertainment is something that Southwest is currently evaluating and which JetBlue has been very successful at already because of its introduction in its long-haul flights. In comparison, Southwest has 415 airplanes to consider and that represents an investment decision at a whole new dimension. Additionally, Southwest has to consider how things may fit into their environment. At this point, 60% of its service is still very short haul. Southwest needs to be mindful of the fact that a certain approach that has been successful for its competitor may not be necessarily work to its advantage.

Summary:

Southwest has long been regarded as a benchmark in its industry for operational excellence. Southwest Airlines is a fine example of a company that is committed to its core competencies - efficient operations to drive its low cost structure, outstanding delivery of customer service and innovative HR management practices. We hope this paper provided a good insight into Southwest operations, as part of its overall strategy, to achieve success and gain competitive advantage.

History of Travel & Tourism

2012-01-21T07:08:00.001-05:00

2000 years Before Christ, in India and Mesopotamia

Travel for trade was an important feature since the beginning of civilisation. The port at Lothal was an important centre of trade between the Indus valley civilisation and the Sumerian civilisation.

600 BC and thereafter

The earliest form of leisure tourism can be traced as far back as the Babylonian and Egyptian empires. A museum of historic antiquities was open to the public in Babylon. The Egyptians held many religious festivals that attracted the devout and many people who thronged to cities to see famous works of arts and buildings.

In India, as elsewhere, kings travelled for empire building. The Brahmins and the common people travelled for religious purposes. Thousands of Brahmins and the common folk thronged Sarnath and Sravasti to be greeted by the inscrutable smile of the Enlightened One- the Buddha.

500 BC, the Greek civilisation

The Greek tourists travelled to sites of healing gods. The Greeks also enjoyed their religious festivals that increasingly became a pursuit of pleasure, and in particular, sport. Athens had become an important site for travellers visiting the major sights such as the Parthenon. Inns were established in large towns and seaports to provide for travellers' needs. Courtesans were the principal entertainment offered.

This era also saw the birth of travel writing. Herodotus was the worlds' first travel writer. Guidebooks also made their appearance in the fourth century covering destinations such as Athens, Sparta and Troy. Advertisements in the way of signs directing people to inns are also known in this period.

The Roman Empire

With no foreign borders between England and Syria, and with safe seas from piracy due to Roman patrols, the conditions favouring travel had arrived. First class roads coupled with staging inns (precursors of modern motels) promoted the growth of travel. Romans travelled to Sicily, Greece, Rhodes, Troy and Egypt. From 300 AD travel to the Holy Land also became very popular. The Romans introduced their guidebooks (itineraria), listing hotels with symbols to identify quality.

Second homes were built by the rich near Rome, occupied primarily during springtime social season. The most fashionable resorts were found around Bay of Naples. Naples attracted the retired and the intellectuals, Cumae attracted the fashionable while Baiae attracted the down market tourist, becoming noted for its rowdiness, drunkenness and all- night singing.

Travel and Tourism were to never attain a similar status until the modern times.

In the Middle Ages

Travel became difficult and dangerous as people travelled for business or for a sense of obligation and duty.

Adventurers sought fame and fortune through travel. The Europeans tried to discover a sea route to India for trade purposes and in this fashion discovered America and explored parts of Africa. Strolling players and minstrels made their living by performing as they travelled. Missionaries, saints, etc. travelled to spread the sacred word.

Leisure travel in India was introduced by the Mughals. The Mughal kings built luxurious palaces and enchanting gardens at places of natural and scenic beauty (for example Jehangir travelled to Kashmir drawn by its beauty.

Travel for empire building and pilgrimage was a regular feature.

The Grand Tour

From the early seventeenth century, a new form of tourism was developed as a direct outcome of the Renaissance. Under the reign of Elizabeth 1, young men seeking positions at court were encouraged to travel to continent to finish their education. Later, it became customary for education of gentleman to be completed by a 'Grand Tour' accompanied by a tutor and lasting for three or more years. While ostensibly educational, the pleasure seeking men travelled to enjoy life and culture of Paris, Venice or Florence. By the end of eighteenth century, the custom had become institutionalised in the gentry. Gradually pleasure travel displaced educational travel. The advent of Napoleonic wars inhibited travel for around 30 years and led to the decline of the custom of the Grand Tour.

The development of the spas

The spas grew in popularity in the seventeenth century in Britain and a little later in the European Continent as awareness about the therapeutic qualities of mineral water increased. Taking the cure in the spa rapidly acquired the nature of a status symbol. The resorts changed in character as pleasure became the motivation of visits. They became an important centre of social life for the high society.

In the nineteenth century they were gradually replaced by the seaside resort.

The sun, sand and sea resorts

The sea water became associated with health benefits. The earliest visitors therefore drank it and did not bathe in it. By the early eighteenth century, small fishing resorts sprung up in England for visitors who drank and immersed themselves in sea water. With the overcrowding of inland spas, the new sea side resorts grew in popularity. The introduction of steamboat services in 19th century introduced more resorts in the circuit. The seaside resort gradually became a social meeting point

Role of the industrial revolution in promoting travel in the west

The rapid urbanisation due to industrialisation led to mass immigration in cities. These people were lured into travel to escape their environment to places of natural beauty, often to the countryside they had come from change of routine from a physically and psychologically stressful jobs to a leisurely pace in countryside.

Highlights of travel in the nineteenth century

· Advent of railway initially catalysed business travel and later leisure travel. Gradually special trains were chartered to only take leisure travel to their destinations.

· Package tours organised by entrepreneurs such as Thomas Cook.

· The European countries indulged in a lot of business travel often to their colonies to buy raw material and sell finished goods.

· The invention of photography acted as a status-enhancing tool and promoted overseas travel.

· The formation of first hotel chains; pioneered by the railway companies who established great railway terminus hotels.

· Seaside resorts began to develop different images as for day-trippers, elite, for gambling.

· Other types of destinations-ski resorts, hill stations, mountaineering spots etc.

· The technological development in steamships promoted travel between North America and Europe.

· The Suez Canal opened direct sea routes to India and the Far East.

· The cult of the guidebook followed the development of photography.

Tourism in the Twentieth Century

The First World War gave first hand experience of countries and aroused a sense of curiosity about international travel among less well off sector for the first time. The large scale of migration to the US meant a lot of travel across the Atlantic. Private motoring began to encourage domestic travel in Europe and the west. The sea side resort became annual family holiday destination in Britain and increased in popularity in other countries of the west. Hotels proliferated in these destinations.

The birth of air travel and after

The wars increased interest in international travel. This interest was given the shape of mass tourism by the aviation industry. The surplus of aircrafts and growth of private airlines aided the expansion of air travel. The aircraft had become comfortable, faster and steadily cheaper for overseas travel. With the introduction of Boeing 707 jet in 1958, the age of air travel for the masses had arrived. The beginning of chartered flights boosted the package tour market and led to the establishment of organised mass tourism. The Boeing 747, a 400 seat craft, brought the cost of travel down sharply. The seaside resorts in the Mediterranean, North Africa and the Caribbean were the initial hot spots of mass tourism.

A corresponding growth in hotel industry led to the establishment of world-wide chains. Tourism also began to diversify as people began to flock alternative destinations in the 70s. Nepal and India received a throng of tourists lured by Hare Krishna movement and transcendental meditation. The beginning of individual travel in a significant volume only occurred in the 80s. Air travel also led to a continuous growth in business travel especially with the emergence of the MNCs.

Sustaining Competitive Advantage

2012-01-19T17:59:00.001-05:00

A competitive advantage could simply be defined as the advantage or ability a firm has over its rivals in the industry; or the ability a firm has to outperform its industry rivals.

A firm is said to have a competitive advantage when it has the capabilities or means to push out its rivals in striving for the favour of customers. This applies internationally or locally as well as to both services and products.Thus, a sustainable competitive advantage is the persistence the firm applies despite efforts by competitors or potential entrants to copy or overtake it. Sustainability therefore, requires that strategic assets are not easily available to others and imperfectly mobile. This will be considered later.

Porter (1990) states that, though not all nations are in the forefront of competition, the home nation which shapes the competitive advantage is the starting point for a firm's competitive advantage and also from which it must be sustained. However, in whatever field of endeavor, competitive advantage creation must be a choice of management and it must really fit to achieve results. It must be noted here that competitive advantage can normally be traced to one of three roots:

Superior resources, superior skills and superior positions.

Competitive strategy is one of the ways in which a business relates to its environment by competing with other firms who are also trying to adapt within the operating environment. It is with this aspect- the competitive strategy which if appropriately chosen and implemented appropriately give the firm a competitive advantage over its rivals.

It must be noted here that the prescriptive view of strategic planning emphasizes the importance of the organizational environment as a source of threats and opportunities and the need for effective responses by the organization if survival was to be assured and the success achieved. The response is later formulated into plan which formulates major decisions about entry into new markets or development of new products and services guided by set goals. Under the influence of Porter's writings in the 1980s the emphasis shifted from the plan to the selection of an appropriate generic strategy to position the business unit in its competitive environment. Porter, arguing that the environment poses threats and brings opportunities than with trends and events, suggested that the environment could be analyzed using the five forces analysis to identify the issues which affect the level of competition in an industry; after which a strategy is formulated to combat it.

The resultant strategy, which he referred to as generic, distinguished some strategic options the firm can possess:

Cost leadership: the business could position itself as offering a low cost product as a standard price i.e. cost leadership strategy. Costs are reduced at every element of the value chain. Producers can exploit the benefits of a bigger margin than the competitors. Toyota is a good example of an organization that produces quality cars at low price coupled with a brand and marketing skills to use a premium pricing policy.

It could offer a product that was different from that offered by rivals. I.e. differentiation. This allows companies to make prices less sensitive and focus on value that generates a comparatively higher price and a better margin. Even though additional costs will be incurred pursuing differentiation, it is possible that this will be offset by the increased revenue generated by the sales.

By focusing on a small but well-defined part of the market, for instance a particular buying group or product area or geographical area. Also known as niche, this is usually suitable for a small company i.e. focus strategy.

Generic Competitive strategy, usually used after competitive analysis or as a response to competitors advantage, is defined as the basis on which a strategic business unit (SBU) might achieve or counter competitive advantage in its market. (Johnson and Scholes, 5th Edition.)

Building on Porter's (1980) generic competitive strategies, Bowman et al argues that organizations achieve competitive advantage by providing their customers with what they want, or need better or more effectively than competitors and making it difficult for competitors to imitate. This was later developed into five generic strategies which would be used in this discussion. Thus, the generic competitive strategies are the fundamental activities on which an SBU seeks to achieve a lasting advantageous position in its environment and gaining the favor of stakeholders by meeting the expectations of buyers, users or other stakeholders

The following are Bowman's five-generic competitive strategy options and examples of organizations who applied them to gain competitive advantage: no frills strategy, low price strategy, hybrid strategy, focused differentiation strategy and added value or differentiation strategy.

In brief, a no frills strategy combines a low price, low perceived added value and targets a price-sensitive market. No frills strategy is now a popular strategy with low-cos airlines Easy Jet and Ryanair seeking to enter the airline industry to compete with likes of Virgin and is a determinant in the market. This, therefore, affords the firm the needed competitive edge over its competitors who charge higher price. This strategy is a success because there could possibly be a segment of the market that overlooks the low quality of the commodity provided it fulfills the same purpose.

To obtain the competitive advantage using no fills strategy revenues must increase and the product must really be price-sensitive. Easy Jet frills strategy seems to be going on well as a result of the cost savings techniques they are using. For instance no ticketing, no ticket agents, no in-flight food or drink for customers as well as the short-haul flight. Now, almost all supermarkets in the UK use no frills strategy by introducing own brands the price of which have been reduced to attract customers in order to gain a competitive advantage.

The next generic strategy is the low price strategy. This strategy pursues a lower price than pertains in the market whilst trying to maintain similar value of product or service as those offered by competitor alike. There is the potential of price war among competitors and in the long run consumers are likely to lose as the firms might not be able to sustain the lower-price-good-value strategy. Notwithstanding the price war and low margins, there are some suggested ways in which a low-priced strategy can bring about a firms competitive advantage. The market segment must be low-price sensitive, and also the SBU has a cost advantage over its competitors.

However, in practice, the lower price strategy usually brought about by lowering operational cost alone does not give the firm the competitive advantage if the firm is not able to sustain it in the long-term as there are now more firms entering the market because of low or no entry barriers like small capital requirements and also how efficient the staff might be.

Hybrid competitive strategy seeks to achieve differentiation and a price lower than that of competitors simultaneously. This is not an easy strategy to pursue because to differentiate a product or service involves some money and increases cost the very thing the low price seeks to reduce. This strategy is fit for the DIY industry as the likes of Robert Dyas are not able to stand the competition. The success of this is dependent on providing unique more efficient products or services to consumers whilst at the same time operating at a lower cost to be able to lower its price below the industry level. The success of this strategy could further be enhanced if the firm has economies of scale and can increase volume of sales more than its competitors, thereby, reducing its base cost as a result. Asda's George brand is an example of a generic hybrid strategy in a SBU.

Another strategy is differentiation strategy. This seeks to provide products or services completely different from those of its competitors by adding features valued by consumers. The main objective of using this is to either maintain the market share or increase market share relative to its competitors. A clear example of this is aircraft manufacturer Airbus's wider fuselages, cockpits designed for use in more than one aircraft and electrical rather than mechanical flight controls.

Those features have helped Airbus win customers like New York-based Jet blue; although Jet Blue is staffed with former employees from Boeing. (Fortune, Europe Edition 22 November 17th 2003; pp34) This strategy could be used to achieve a competitive advantage which is its ultimate aim by the firm investing more in R&D, unique designs and features. The marketing-based approaches in terms of good marketing communication (example advertising the products or services) as well as the brand power to win the loyalty of consumers. (Example Airbus)

The fifth generic competitive strategy is the focused differentiation strategy which seeks to provide high perceived value; justifying a substantial price premium usually to a selected market, segment. It is usually adopted to counter or to compete others in seemingly similar segment. This could therefore be argued that focused differentiation is just an extension of any of the four strategies so far considered depending on the competitors in this new segment which is usually middle to high income earners. A convincing example is the introduction of Lexus in 1989 by Toyota to compete with other luxury brands of BMW and Mercedes Benz new series.

For the focused differentiation strategy to be used to obtain a competitive advantage over competitors in the industry, the business unit must find ways to make the production more efficient to be able to pass on the savings to customers. The business unit must identify new segments and must also be prepared to aggressively create new market segment where it is believed first movers get huge advantage. Again Toyota prides itself in this by being the first to introduce a brand,scion,specifically for young buyers in January, 2003 which was a success and the introduction of hybrids in 1997 selling 127,000 far more than Honda.( Hybrid uses two engines and is environmentally friendly.) (Fortune, Europe Edition, Number 24 December 22 2003; pp57).

The essence of the various strategies discussed so far is to create or add value to the products or services in order to give improved and or enough satisfaction to the customer so that the firm will gain a competitive advantage over its rivals. However, it is one thing for a firm to gain a competitive advantage and another to sustain the competitive advantage so gained. So when a firm is able to get a competitive advantage over its competitors, it becomes expedient to try to sustain this advantage.

Some of the ways to sustain the competitive advantage is by what is described as isolating mechanism. This is the application of forces like barriers of imitation which limit the extent to which a competitive advantage can be duplicated or matched or even possibly scrapped through the resource creation activities of other firms. Though similar in principle to the barrier of entry force, whereas the entry barriers protect profitability of an entire industry, isolating mechanisms sustain the competitive advantage of a single firm. For example legal barriers like trademarks, patents or intellectual property rights as in Microsoft's case.

It could also be for the mere fact that the leading firm makes it difficult for the competitor to catch up with the firm's technology because it entered the market earlier and it continues to research and might be able to move to a superior position by the time its competitors catch up. This is known as the early mover advantage. Because the business unit has entered the market earlier, the past success in the market is believed to sustain the firm.

Nevertheless, no matter how discrete the strategy adopted to gain the sustainable competitive advantage or enough satisfaction that the customer may get as well as the mechanisms put in place to sustain the competitive edge, simple economics has proved that man's needs are insatiable and with the information technology age, there is an improved dynamism in business that products and services can become obsolete before they even reach the next user.

The question is can the firm continue to create more economic value than its competitors now than then?

Now with the advent of information systems and technology, this traditional way of competitive advantage or competitive edge has, therefore, taken a different turn. Information gathering and I mean a competitive information gathering in deed can to some large extent make a difference to a firm's position in an industry and for that matter affect its competitive advantage one way or the other.

A good and recent example is Asda installing radio frequency identification (RFID) system, a device which could be used to scan bar codes of incoming goods which could save Asda $8.35 billion annually through improvement in its supply chain management. Fortune, Wal-Mart keeps the change, November 10,2003pp 23.

Firms can either use their own database or an informational gathering software to track its operations and get the required information like inventory, customers, and trends of competitors' performance and about the fast moving products to formulate their strategies or form what is known as information partnerships for the purpose of sharing information to gain competitive or strategic advantage; and even link their systems with some competitors to achieve synergies.

This is becoming important as a result of the fact that competition in the business world today is not only within a particular industry one operates but can also be cross-competition with people in other related industry like universities and publishers competing due to forward and backward integrations. Baxter Healthcare International is known to offer medical supplies from its competitors and office supplies through its electronic ordering channel to its customers. By doing this the firm increases its customer base as well as loyalty of its customers is enhanced.

At this juncture, the statement that "there is no such thing as a sustainable competitive advantage" can be considered in relation to the circumstances that happened in Sears, which used to be USA's largest retailer until Wal-mart overtook it after a diversification strategy went bust in spite of the fact that it (Sears) has been heavily computerized with more expenditure going into information technology and networking than all other non-computer firms in the United states apart from Boeing. So why couldn't this huge amount spent in computers and networking been able to give them the competitive edge over its rivals? Is it due to the fact that the hardware alone is not sufficient to provide the information needed unless it is integrated with the appropriate software? Sears did exactly that.

Trying to reinvent itself, Sears started to explore almost all strategies including low pricing strategy, delayering, improved marketing ploys as well as embarking on a $4billion five-year store renovation to make the stores more attractive. All to no avail.

Then Sears noticed that, its merchandise buyers do not have reliable information on precisely what customers were buying at each store. Management was relying on 18 separate systems that often gave conflicting and redundant pricing information. They could only view a division's daily performance. This was not good for a firm of Sears's stature. Sears later tightened its grips over the business once again by building a larger database involving the consolidation of information on transaction records,90 million households,31million Sears' card users, their credit status, and other related data.

The database houses the company's Strategic Performance Reporting System (SPRS).Now Sears' 1,000 buyers and managers know what hot-selling merchandise to replenish right away. This competitive information gathering to some extent helped turn around Sears. Its store sales started rising and planed to join partnership with AOL to boost its online business by targeting AOL's 21 million customers by developing content for AOL on subjects such as how to build a deck, tips on home decorating and other home improvement topics; and also move its suppliers to an electronic ordering system similar to that described for Baxter Healthcare, by linking its computerized ordering system directly to that of each supplier to eliminate paperwork completely for an improved flow of goods into its stores.

As previously discussed, if a firm can keep or maintain its lead on creating value, leveraging strategic assets for example access to efficient distribution channels, maintain market position and may be low cost advantage then it can be said to have a sustainable competitive advantage. This is absolutely not possible in this dynamic business world. The most difficult part of this is that the firm must create more economic value than its competitors every now and then. Will its competitors be looking on without doing anything?

Microsoft for example is spending billions of dollars to develop its own search engine that will be incorporated in both its online service MSN and its new operating system due in 2006 to combat Google's dominance in the search engine industry. (Fortune, 22 December 2003pp 17).

In my own opinion based on the discussions above, if really sustainable competitive advantage is the persistence of a firm's ability to outperform its industry, then suffice it to say that, as much as gathering and use of competitive information as illustrated in the Sears' story above can give a firm a (sustainable) competitive advantage, it is really difficult if not impossible to sustain any competitive advantage for a very long time. This is so because of the rate of technological changes, changes in business strategies, and the fact that customers' loyalty can wane and affect sales leading to a fall in market share and thus competitive advantage. Boeing was overtaken by Airbus in the aviation industry at some time. Sears' leadership was taken away by Wal-mart.

In spite of the availability of choice of the five generic strategies, it is supposed that the onus of their success rests with management and how the technology and the information gathered are blended for use. This is so because a careful monitoring and evaluation constantly and the right identification and proper timing of a particular segment are keys to the success of these strategies due to market dynamism.

Major Airlines

2012-01-03T17:53:00.001-05:00

Most countries in the world boast an airline that is a national carrier that plies international routes, and not just between its cities and other countries, but between cities outside its borders. This can be described as a major airline.

The first step to picking which carrier you are going to book a ticket on, is deciding where you are traveling, be it for business or for a vacation. You then do some research on the internet or by consulting travel agents to know which major airlines travel from where you are to your desired destination. You can then research or find out about each carrier from their websites or from the many consumer review websites that are available.

Upon deciding on the airline that you are going to fly, you will then need to define a budget. Are there any flights available on the day that you want to fly, that are within your budget? If not, what the closest days available or the next best options are in regards to flight.

You also want to consider where you will have your lay over when in transit. Do you need to get any transit visas? Some major airlines will organize these for you if you request it. You can even pick an airline with an overnight layover in a city you have never been to. They often provide hotels for the travelers to spend the night in. you can take in the sights and sounds of this new city during your layover.

Pick only the major airlines that are reliable, and if you are a frequent traveler, you can even pick one with a reward system. And you can redeem your points in hotels, grocery stores or even when picking a new destination to fly to.

Particularly if that child isn't theirs. Next to landing hastily on something other than a runway, sharing the cabin with a fussy toddler is about the worst luck many travelers can imagine. And as the economy and security regulations conspire to squeeze the comforts out of air travel — lines are long, flights are full and increasingly devoid of amenities — the sound of a baby's wail can be the breaking point for already frayed nerves. Now, travelers without children are doing some fussing of their own. Some are calling for airlines to implement child-free flights, or designate "family-only" sections on planes, in the wake of some high-profile tantrums. In July, Qantas settled a lawsuit from a woman who claimed that she suffered hearing loss after sitting next to a screaming 3-year-old boy on a 2009 flight from New York to Australia. (Terms of the settlement were not disclosed.) In January, AirTran removed an entire family from a flight before takeoff ...

www.instablogs.com Sudanese President lashes out at France The Sudanese president Omer Hassan Al-Bashir lashed out at Western countries and accused them of trying to topple his regime during the last 20 years. France, the UK and the USA were particularly targeted. Al-Bashir told his people not to worry about a pending arrest warrant against him by the International Criminal Court (ICC). It contains three counts of genocide, five of crimes against humanity and two of murder. "Money and ruling is not in the hands of US, France & UK. They are all underneath my shoes" he said angrily. The strong statements by Al-Bashir may signal his frustration with his envoys failure to convince these countries to suspend the ICC move against him.

Packing Carry-On Luggage - How to Pack a Carry-On Suitcase

2011-12-28T22:11:00.001-05:00

Shoes should be placed in the bottom of the suitcase in shoe bags if you have them. If not, and they are not clean, use any type of plastic bag, one per shoe, so as you can separate each shoe and have more room on the bottom. Before putting them in the bag, put belts, socks, phone chargers, etc. inside the shoes and the shoe bags.

Take your curling iron, hair blower, and any odd size items and place between the individual shoe bags. Fit them nice and snug.

Underwear, swimsuits and pajama's can also be placed around the shoes and before the folded items. You can fold the pajama's and put in with the soft items.

Heavy items of clothing, such as jean, sweatshirts, jackets, and sweaters, should go next. You want to make two individual sides and a well defined middle of the suitcase.

Fold the jeans, pants, capri's, shorts, etc. Fold them in half with waist meeting bottom of legs then fold in half again. Place the fold to the front of the suitcase. Remember to put heavy items on the bottom, building the stack of pants by the weight of the pant.

Fold shirts, sweaters, tops, jackets, etc... Lay your shirts on a flat surface, face down, and fold sleeves to middle back, bottom to neckline, neckline to fold line, fold to front of suitcase. Remember to place heavy items on bottom and soft items on top.

Next place very fine clothing, including linen, velvets, and satins. These tend to shift or wrinkle in travel, so after carefully folding the items as directed, use tissue paper to individually wrap the item.

Now, if you have odds and ends, place in between the stacks and in the middle of the two rows of your nicely folded clothes. Use large zip lock bags for all of your hair products, tooth paste, body care and facial products. This is just in case the air pressure from the plane would cause them to leak out and make a mess on your other items. Place this in the zipper portion of your carryon.

Applying For an Infant Passport

2011-12-26T20:45:00.001-05:00

Traveling with an infant brings unique challenges for first time parents. Car seats, diaper bags, changes of clothing and more become part of the new travel routine. Along with all of the standard baby gear, there may be one more thing to consider bringing along: an infant passport.

Passports are becoming increasingly important. Most borders cannot be crossed today without a passport, even the Mexican and Canadian borders. Infants are not exempt from this requirement. You cannot add an infant to a U.S. passport. Every citizen, including babies, must have his or her own passport. Anyone trying to cross a border with an infant who doesn't have a passport may be regarded with suspicion. Carrying a passport for an infant when you travel is just as important as carrying your own.

New parents often wonder when they should apply for an infant passport. The best answer is: as soon as possible. Obtaining a passport for an infant should be considered routine, just as applying for a birth certificate is. Even if you don't have international travel plans in your immediate future, it's still a good idea to apply for one. It usually takes about six weeks to have your application processed. Those who want to expedite the process and receive a passport in about two weeks can pay an extra fee of $35. However, by simply applying for it early on you can avoid this fee. You'll also avoid the stress of trying to obtain a passport while busy making travel plans.

Infant passports are obtained in the same manner as a child or adult passport. Infant passport applications may be downloaded from various travel service providers and government agencies. You may also obtain one in person from your local post office or immigration office. Infant passport requirements include:

*Presentation of your baby's birth certificate. If your child was born outside the United States, you must present the child's Naturalization Certificate or Certificate of Citizenship along with the birth certificate.

*Two official passport photos. They must be regulation size (2 inches by 2 inches) and should be taken by a professional photographer. Home-produced photographs are not accepted.

*The application fee, which is $40. Remember, it will cost an extra $35 if you need to obtain it faster than six weeks.

The baby need not appear in person to be granted a passport. However, the person applying for it must be able to vouch for the identity of the child and present his or her own identification. Infant passports are valid for five years.

Traveling aside, it's useful to obtain a passport for an infant for other reasons. It is often the only form of official picture ID that a baby can obtain. Sometimes picture ID is required for registering for preschool or kindergarten, or may even be required for some domestic airline flights. Having official picture identification for your child is never a bad idea. Applying for it right from the beginning may save parents from unforeseen trouble down the road.

Istanbul Ataturk Airport action with THY Turkish Airlines

2011-12-26T04:48:00.001-05:00

www.henrytenby.com Welcome to Turkey's fabulous Istanbul International Airport, named after the patriot, founder and father of modern day Turkey, Mustafa Kamal Ataturk. Istanbul straddles the Bosporus connecting Europe with Asia, and this city has been a centre of world commerce for two thousand years. Today, its bustling airport is one of the busiest and most interesting in the region. We join airline videographer Henry Tenby for a fascinating visit to this remarkably busy airport, where airlines from Middle East, Asia, Europe and the former Russian States mix company with Turkish flag carrier Turkish Airlines and their busy fleet. This double DVD set features over three hours on non-stop, heart-pounding airliner action, filmed along-side the active runway over a several day visit in September, 2005. Professionally filmed with broadcast cameras on film industry tripods, this DVD takes you up close to the action.

How to Weigh Your Luggage Conveniently Before You Travel

2011-12-25T15:55:00.001-05:00

There are very few things less annoying than getting to the airport and finding out that you've got to pay an extra fee because your luggage is too heavy. And these days, with fuel prices being what they are, airlines are looking more than ever to make up for those extra expenses.

Of course when you're packing your luggage you really don't know how much you're packing, and we all know that our luggage is always twice as heavy on the way home (how does that happen?).

Obviously you need a solution to this problem and that solution could be something like the Balanzza Digital Luggage Scale. Many find this as a great investment because it can save you tons of money on extra fees at the airport.

This is a handy little tool that's completely portable so that you can weigh your luggage well ahead of time either at home or at the hotel before you leave. Again, no more guessing work!

It's really simple to use actually. You just use the strong straps and wrap them safely around the handle of your luggage. It'll read luggage up to 100 pounds (or 44 kg. if you use those measurements). After you've lifted it'll beep, you simply set it back down and then check out the very clear and accurate digital display. It's really as simple as that.

Now a lot of the luggage scales are very complicated and inaccurate. The Balanzza Luggage Scale is neither. It's extremely accurate and instead of using ineffective hooks for lifting, it uses strong sturdy straps so that you don't have to worry about the luggage slipping off of the scale. That actually can be very dangerous if you're a heavy packer. I certainly wouldn't want any luggage that my wife packs to fall on my foot.

It switches with a click of a button between kilograms to pounds so you don't have to sit there for 20 minutes trying to figure out what the silly luggage really weighs. One click and your on the one that's right for you.

Listen, you certainly don't want to be getting to the airport only to have to pay a surprise fee for your luggage. For people who travel often on discount airlines, we know how finicky they've become about enforcing their luggage regulations. Luggage scales help keep you from having to pay extra money at check-in. Then again, at a time like this when fuel prices are sky high each and every airline is beginning to be very finicky.

It's silly to take a change when for less than a lunch out with a friend you can get a product like the Balanzza Digital Luggage Scale and save yourself time and aggravation?

Backpack Carry-On Rules For Airplanes

2011-12-23T07:20:00.001-05:00

A backpack can be a helpful material for traveling by airplane but it should be noted that there are many different limits that can be used in terms of what type of backpack can be brought onto a plane. There are many backpack carry on rules to watch for when traveling on an airplane with a backpack. These rules deal with the number of bags that are going to be allowed for one user, the size of the bag and the maximum weight that is allowed for one of these bags.

It is important to watch for the size of the backpack when getting into a plane. There may not be enough space for people to store their backpacks into overhead compartments in certain types of airplanes. This is important to know because in some cases people will prefer to put their luggage into one of these compartments instead of having it sent into the luggage compartment of the plane and picking it up later at the luggage claim section of an airport. Also, there is only so much space that can be used underneath one's seat for storing a carry on. Using the smallest possible backpack will be important as a result.

Larger backpacks that are used for weekend trips or overnight trips will generally not be able to fit in some cases. A typical area underneath the seat on an airplane will only be able to handle a material that is about five inches in height on average. As a result it will be important to watch for the size of the backpack because it may need to be stored in the luggage claim section of the plane if there is not enough space for it on the plane.

It is important to know that when traveling with a backpack that only one backpack can be carried onto a plane at a time by an individual person. Different airliners will consider a backpack to be a personal item that can be carried onto a plane with ease.

The weight of the backpack and the materials that are inside of it is also important. The maximum weight that can be used for most carry-ons according to average airplane carry on rules is forty pounds. It can vary for international travel though. For instance, the maximum carry on weight for Air France is only twenty-six pounds. It helps to prepare one's backpack accordingly as a result.

Volaris Airlines - A New Airline For Mexico

2011-12-18T05:45:00.001-05:00

Mexico is getting a new airline and if the carrier meets all expectations it will go a long way in helping Mexican air traffic double over just the next three years. Volaris Airlines, started by Mexican billionaires Carlos Slim and Emilio Azcarraga, is expecting to take its first flight on March 13, 2006. Volaris may impact the airline industry well beyond Mexico especially if its aggressive expansion plans work out.

With the Mexican government in the process of divesting its interest in two airlines, Aero Mexico and Mexicana Airlines, start up carriers are poised to jump in and provide service as fares drop and demand surges. Up to now, the highly controlled Mexican airline industry has put a damper on customer demand as artificially high prices and a restricted market have kept customers away. Volaris Airlines, along with competing start up airline, Interjet, are expected to quickly reshape the Mexican airline industry beginning this year.

Volaris is planning to serve at least six Mexican cities and eventually provide service between Mexican and U.S. destinations. No word how all of this will impact wannabe start up Mexus Airlines, currently operating as a "paper carrier" with no concrete plans [or funding] to start flying.

Volaris plans on flying 16 A319 aircraft and has an option on 40 A320 aircraft. TACA International Airlines, based in El Salvador, will hold a minority stake in the airline. If all goes well with Volaris, expect the Mexican airline industry to go through a shake up similar to what the U.S. airline industry has experienced.

Air Flights to Cape Town South Africa From Miami

2011-12-16T06:39:00.001-05:00

There are only 3 main flights from Miami to Cape Town South Africa. These are The South African Airways, Delta Airlines and British Airways. There is no direct flight and all of the flights make 2 stops before getting to their destination.

Some of the cities these flights fly via include Washington, Johannesburg, New York, Baltimore and Johannesburg. With each stop you have to switch flights but this is normal for long flights.

The South Africa Airways

This flight to South Africa from Miami departs from Miami at 13:25 heading for Washington Dulles. It gets there at about 16:04. After about 90 minutes it takes off this time heading for Johannesburg where it arrives at 15:50 the following day.

It then lives Johannesburg at 17:40 and flies to its final destination, Cape Town. It gets there at 19:50. The air flight to South Africa from Miami is about 20 hours long.

Delta Airlines

Delta Airlines lives Miami at 06:00 and flies to Baltimore. It arrives there at 10:34 and takes off at 11:00 heading to New York, specifically to the JFK airport. It gets there at about 12:10 and takes off at 16:00 heading straight for Cape Town South Africa.

This flight is longer than the South African Airways i.e. it's a 23 hour flight.

British Airways

The British Airways departs from Miami at 20:50 and heads straight for London. It gets there the following day at 10:05. There is quite a long stretch of waiting here as the new flight that you are switched to only takes off at 17:50 and flies to Johannesburg.

It gets there at 06:35 on the second day. You are then switched to another flight i.e. the SA317, which lives Johannesburg at 09:00 and gets to Cape Town at 11:10. The total flight time is about 21 hours - better than using Delta Airlines.

In terms of prices for air flights to Cape Town South Africa from Miami, the South Africa Airways is cheaper.

How To Grab Very Cheap International Flights

2011-12-15T02:14:00.001-05:00

If you enjoy going on vacation and you're often wanting that you may be able to jump on a flight and go to any location of your choice in the world, you're probably all of the time in search of very cheap international flights. You can find lots of options to book a trip on a low budget and have a fantastic vacation. As a matter of fact, you also can find opportunities to book a trip for almost free, whenever you're able to spend some energy and time into exploring all of your choices and making the best of your resources.

Finding cheap air flight tickets can be a challenge all of the time. Hotels are ever more willing to give a discount and offer package bargains and specials in many cases. This is why you are able to find inexpensive options to stay overnight. Airfares however, are controlled by the airline carriers. There is commonly little room to get a discount when you're calling to book your flight. It is always wise not to call the airline directly to get the cheapest flight unless you could spend the extra money or you need a last minute flight depending on an emergency.

As an alternative, make the best of your resources. If you own a credit card that lets you to accumulate points, find out if you are able to cash them in for a free or very cheap airfare. I think, whenever you go with your credit card, why not get anything more out of it? You can find plenty of people who will never spend a single dime on an airfare because they make use of their credit card points and miles. If you dislike the way of credit card debt, you can ever consider to pay off everything in full every time you'll get your bill. You get to keep the miles or points and you don't carry a balance each month.

An additional valuable source that most people are able to use is the internet. There are cheap airfares on nearly all well-established travel sites. It would be a good starting point for you to find some sites that compare the flight prices for over 25 airlines flying all over the United States and often around the globe. It will give you what the cheapest price and the airline ticket to buy for your trip. However you should always compare prices from two or more travel sites before you put any money down. Still take your time and do some more research, because in many cases you will find another travel site that will offer it for a bit cheaper.

However, you should always have in mind that the price of a ticket you find on one site today might change when you come back to make a reservation the very next day. Whenever you found a good deal and you're comfortable with what the rate, make a reservation on the same day. If the rate you get today isn't too attracting, it's wise to wait a few days. It might arise or it might come back down. Finding very cheap international flights isn't ever a guarantee, however it could be more easygoing to find a cheap airfare when you do some more research.

Getting a Cheap Plane Ticket for Your Next Flight

2011-12-14T13:56:00.001-05:00

Have you ever wondered why the guy sitting next to you on the plane got his ticket so cheap? Is there a trick he knows that you don't? If you are a seasoned traveler then you may already know many of the tricks you can use to obtain discount ticket rates, but for those who are new to hunting down good ticket deals here are a couple of secrets you can use to your advantage.

Being flexible with your departure and return dates is the first rule for getting a cheap plane ticket. You will be surprised how much prices vary depending on the time of the month, day of the week, and even the time of the day. This is where using the internet comes in handy because it allows you to check prices for flights at different times of the week and day. By comparing fares, even with just one airline, you will be able to plan an itinerary that works for your travel plans and save money while doing so.

The second thing you need to do is to make sure you book your flight far enough in advance to take advantage of early booking discounts. If you wait until around two and a half weeks or less before booking your flight your chances of finding any sort of discount will decrease sharply because the airlines know at this point that people booking flights are willing to pay the premium price because they are usually last minute travelers with little flexibility in their travel plans.

If you take some time far enough in advance of your travel dates and do some comparison shopping there is a good chance you will save some money. In fact many airlines run early bird specials which can all but ensure that you will get that cheap plane ticket you have been looking for.

Another route to finding discount plane tickets is contacting the airlines directly. Many people simply do not do this which is to bad because the airlines do run un-advertised specials that can only be had by calling them and talking to a customer service agent. You may also be able to get a discount on your flight by signing up for an airlines frequent flier mileage program, but you have to ask if this is an option.

The nice thing about calling the actual airline's customer service center is their willingness to do business with you. The competition within the industry is fierce and you will often find them willing to try and get you the best deal they can within the current specials and programs they offer to get your business.

If you are serious about getting a cheap plane ticket the next time you fly then consider adding these tips and tricks to your arsenal of money saving strategies. It may take some time and patience but the end result may well be worth it.

Important Information on South Africa Flights

2011-12-14T01:17:00.001-05:00

Considering a trip to South Africa, whether it is for family vacation or not you have to find a few ways on how to cut the spending for the entire trip. A trip to South Africa means planning to visit places like Kruger National Park or the Cape Town.

Get cheap air tickets by booking with local travel agents. There are chances are you'll be capable to save some cash by flying first through Ethiopia or just Kenya for East Africa flights. Compare the flight tickets to find which route is cheaper.

One more option would be to make use of popular Airliners. You'll find straight travel arrangements offered from airways including United Airlines, British Airways, Air France Delta, South African Airways and various other smaller airlines.

"Excellence" of PIA

2011-12-05T09:30:00.001-05:00

1st day- Friday 29th April- 11 PIA tickets were cancelled, me along with my family without our prior knowledge. Apparently the PIA staff had overbooked the plane. Basically 70+ customer tickets were re-sold including our tickets to other customers who had now paid high ticket prices due to the holiday season. The PIA booking service in Pakistan had now pocketed tons of money due to this scam, leaving the waiting customers who genuinely had purchased return tickets from the UK waiting for hours in Islamabad (Benazir Bhutto International Airport) without any flight to take them. The staff at PIA in Pakistan basically claimed either the plane was full, overbooked etc and ignored customers who asked for help ( the PIA staff were rude and bad mannered and constantly trying to scapegoat UK ticketing offices for selling out fake tickets) Also when 70+ customers went to the PIA ticket office after hours of conversation, they agreed to give them the next day flight to London with a connecting flight to Manchester the original destination, claiming that there was no direct flights on Saturday to Manchester. PIA allocated customers to hotels for the rest of the day for the flight the next day (the hotel provided had no proper air conditioning in the rooms, was dirty and had bad service). 2nd day- Saturday 30th April- All my family arrive at the airport.

Evergreen Airlines Boeing 747 Fire Plane Supertanker VLAT

2011-12-04T19:34:00.001-05:00

Courtesy Evergreen International Aviation www.evergreenaviation.com The Evergreen Supertanker showed impressive results during the US Forest Service administered grid tests earlier this year. From high, medium and low coverage levels, the Supertanker showed it provides quality, consistent retardant line construction. The cutting-edge aircraft proved it belongs on the front line, from the onset, to fight wildfire day and night. The uniformed pattern of the Supertanker drops, and its ability, in a single flight, for split loads at multiple coverage levels, gives agencies an incredibly versatile firefighting tool. The multi-role B747 Supertanker is the largest tanker aircraft available today. With a payload of more than 20000 gallons and a response time of 600 mph, it has more than eight times the drop capability and twice the speed of any other federal air tanker currently fighting fires. The Supertankers patented pressurized system has the capability to disperse product at high pressure for an overwhelming response, or disperse at the speed of falling rain in a single or several segmented drops. This pressurized system will also allow for drops at higher altitudes, creating a significant safety buffer and enabling the Supertanker to fight fires during the day and at night, when they are most vulnerable. It also offers a significant value for American taxpayers; saving homes, natural resources, and most importantly, lives. When employed properly, the Supertanker has the ...

It was a difficult decision to make, staying in a perfect place with lovely people. I think the 'soon-to-expire' visa helped make our minds up, that and the fact that our minds were becoming slack without the daily challenges that travelling brings. Itchy travllers feet had also made an appearence so off we went. It seemed from all accounts that the easiest way to cross the border into Cambodia would be with one of those air-con bus packages that seemed to be advertised everywhere in the small fishing port of Trat, Thailand. Any other method would have been near impossible, as the whole community prospers from the selling of these tickets. When this happens you will soon find that local taxi and bus drivers become markedly unhelpful when you ask them to take you to the border. Sometimes its just best to go with the flow. We were supposed to be taken to a crossing at Poi-Pet on the Cambodian border. Unfortunately we were taken to some absolute nowhere's-ville and fleeced by the local tourist-office/border-guard syndicate. They had it fixed so that the border guards would not take our money for the visa ...

PlusMore Airports Using Paperless Boarding PassesMore Airports Using Paperless Boarding PassesThe Associated PressAir travelers whose cell phones get e-mail now have more airports where they can utilize paperless boarding passes for Continental Airlines flights. (May 28)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] ((Newark, NJ)) Get ready for "paperless" air travel. NATS: beep We're all use to e-tickets, but now Continental Airlines and the TSA are rolling out the electronic boarding pass at several airports across the country. ((Lara Uselding, Transportation Security Administration)) "TSA created the concept. Continental came up with the software behind this to ensure authenticity of the electronic boarding pass." Travelers appear to like the paperless option. "That's pretty wild." ((Robert Gower, Traveler)) "It's very convenient, you get it at home, and then you go right to the airport, I think it speeds the process up." Here's how it works: Using a computer or cell phone passengers "check in" electronically before a flight, by entering the confirmation code from an e-ticket. A boarding pass is then emailed to the passenger's cell phone. It has an encrypted bar code on it with the passenger's name and flight info.

Domestic Airlines South Africa - How to Find Cheap Flights in South Africa

2011-11-28T04:54:00.001-05:00

Here is what you have to do to save on domestic flights in South Africa:

Look at No Frills Domestic Airlines

In the past, almost all of South Africa's domestic flights were on South African Airways, the national carrier. It totally dominated the local market. And flying was for the few. Now there are at least three other airlines you need to look at when looking for low airfares - Mango, kulula, 1 time (one time). Any of these can get you to many destinations in South Africa, often at a discount. But still look at South African Airways since they have aggressively responded to the no frills airlines.

Go On Line to Find Domestic South African Airline Deals!

Make sure that you search online for the best local South African air fare deals. In the US, for example, the best way to find the lowest airfares is if you use an airline search engine that includes airline consolidator flights. In South Africa, you should definitely do this as well. And look out for the fares that surface from not only Mango, Kulula and One Time, but SAA and Comair too.

Travel On So. Africa's Airlines in Mid Day and Mid Week

The best airfares on airlines here are when you are willing to travel in the middle of the day, in the early morning or late at night. And sometimes on Saturday during the day. This is because most airline traffic is normally business traffic to and from Johannesburg and other major cities like Cape Town and Durban. By avoiding business traffic you increase your chances of finding great airfares since these plane seats would otherwise be empty, so the airlines discount them.

Use E Tickets To Save on Air Tickets -

Now airlines here charge for paper tickets. So go with the flow, avoid the airline fee for issuing paper tickets. Plus, one additional benefit is that you don't have to worry about losing your ticket.

Follow these tips. You'll save money and find the cheap tickets or flights in South Africa that you want.

Finding Cheap International Air Fare

2011-11-21T03:14:00.001-05:00

Many people spend a good part of their life dreaming of visiting foreign lands. Their vision of visiting exotic places and meeting new people is always there but for one little problem in the back of their mind: The Cost. How on earth are they going to pay for such a trip? There's so much planning and cost involved and just when they think they have it figured out the problem of paying just to get there raises its ugly head. If they could just find a cheap international air fare all the pieces would fall into place.

Of course what is cheap for one person may not be for another so in a sense this can be a subjective issue. But the fact remains that finding a good deal requires the same research tactics no matter who you are, it just up to the individual to decide whether the price they found is a good deal for them.

Because air fare prices are quite volatile and can change daily it can pay big savings to get as many different price quotes as possible. The point of this is simple, with so many airlines and travel sites vying for your travel dollars your chances of finding a deal are greatly enhanced if you can check all your options. Which options should you keep your eye out for? Here are some tips and trick to help you find a cheap international air fare.

One of the biggest ways to save on international flights is to travel during the off-peak seasons. During the height of peak vacation season airlines charge a high premium for their flights because the demand is there. Do a little research into your chosen destination and find out when the off-peak season is and chances are you will find some pretty good ticket deals.

You can also save money if you buy your tickets far enough in advance of your travel date, or at least to a point. If you try to purchase a ticket on an international flight more than 4 months before the flight you will most likely be charged the premium rate for that seat. The best time to look for cheap air fares are between 4 months out up around 14 to 21 days before you're scheduled to leave. Airlines normally raise their prices significantly 14 days before a flight because by then most people who are traveling are set in their plans and will pay the premium price.

A last couple things to consider are flying into an alternate airport or trying one of the many discount airlines that are now starting to fly international flights. These are two more ways to save money when flying internationally.

Finding cheap international air fare can be done, you just have to do your research and know where to look. Once you know these things you will find you can travel and save money at the same time.

Saturday 18th July 2009 the Vulcan took to the skies at Fairford once again. Great display and thanks to the team. Vulcan XH-558 still needs your help. It would be a great shame if this beautiful aircraft didn't fly again after this season. You can help, please text VULCAN to 82055 to make a £3 donation or go to www.vulcantothesky.org for further information. This video was shot on a 3 chip SD camera (Canon XM-2) and upscaled to 720p, as this makes for better quality on YouTube. I apologise for the shakiness. I was too close to use a tripod, I was being buffeted by the wind and the takeoff shot was done with me precariously balanced on a coolbox! After paying a fortune for 4 tickets and camping at Kempsford campsite (almost on the airfield), we got up at 6am and still didn't get a place at the front of the crowdline. What do you guys do, cut through the fence at daybreak or something? Shot on a Canon XM2, edited on iMovie 09.
