Problem Definition
The Indian aviation industry was facing two major problems in the month of October, 2012. One was a sharp drop in the domestic passenger traffic in October, while the second saw the exit of Kingfisher Airlines from the market. Traffic fell to 4.55 million in October 2012 from 5.4 million in October 2011, a drop of almost 1 million. This was unexpected by many in the industry as this is the peak season time for most of the airlines which operate, owing to festive travelling.
This loss of Kingfisher Airlines was a gain for the other existing domestic airlines which grabbed the market share that was previously held by Kingfisher
