    Prior to its take-over by Tune Air Sdn. Bhd. in 2001, AirAsia was owned by DRB-Hicom, a government-linked company (AirAsia, 2008). Its airline had not been able to take off and was eventually sold to Tune Air, literally for a song, for a token sum of RM1.00 or US$0.26 together with an accumulated debt of RM40 million (AirAsia, 2008). Tune Air was formed by Tony Fernandez and four entrepreneurs, some of whom had worked with the music industry which perhaps inspired the name of the company.…

    After all the turbulence national air carrier Air India went through in the recent past, Arvind Jadhav, Chairman and Managing Director of the beleaguered airlines is now determined to have a positive balance sheet by 2014-15 and is ready with a turnaround strategy. Some of the key targets the national carrier has set for itself include achieving 25 million domestic and 15 million international passengers by 2015, 93% on-time punctuality, and 75% load factor. The turn around strategy involves the activation of a low cost air service especially in the domestic market as well as the consolidation of the existing domestic operations before any expansion both in the domestic as well as the international markets is done.
