Looking at Emirates that has competitive pricing to the rest of its rivals in similar service quality we can say that services of the airline would affect the difference in price among the airlines. This example shows us that Qatar Airlines as it is the first Five Star Airline that offers premium services would differ in price compare to Emirates. Customers can choose what quality of service they would receive according to the price they want to pay. That’s why we thing that airlines can be split in to three separate press categories according to the service they offer. Emirates would fit in the middle price category compare to Qatar Airlines which offers superior service for a superior price. The last category of price range we would consider Air Arabia as it has the minimum possible service but also has the lowest price range for varicose destinations (An example: Emirates offers return flight to Bangalore from 20th December till 23d December for 2640dhs., Qatar offers the same flight for 2350dhs, Air Arabia offers for 790dhs). • In flight service would show the biggest difference among the three airlines. Looking at Emirates and Qatar airline we can see that inflight service at Qatar would be Five Star class compare to Emirates four star.

Looking at Emirates which service would differ as Emirates sets out lower standards for its

    By focusing on business class Turkish Airlines can convert economy class customers into business class customers and increase its profitability. As it can be seen in exhibit 2, the total passengers travelled has reached to a saturation point in 2008. Therefore, trying to convert existing economy class costumers to business class customers is a better and more profitable idea than trying to increase the number of economy class passengers. In addition to that, when exhibit 3 is examined, it can be seen that the increase in the number of business passengers has a minor effect on the number of total passengers of Turkish Airlines. Hence, there is a growth potential in business class. Their marketing and advertisement efforts like special agreements making the airline the official carrier of well-known and successful football teams and sports people are also in parallel with this strategy. Moreover, one of the strategic goals of THY is to enhance its service level to a 5-star level. When we look at the comparison of SKYTRAX rankings of Turkish Airlines and Singapore Airlines, it can be concluded that improvements in the business class may lead THY to a 5-star level. Furthermore, by having new planes that have a separate business class Turkish Airlines has a competitive advantage compared to European competitors. Hence, focusing on business class will also serve to the airlines goal of reaching Europe’s top full-service spot,…
