    Total revenue in 2011 was £3.452 million and grew by 16.8% in compare to 2010. This was achieved despite a significant increase in passenger taxes and economic instability around the world.

    1. What are the main sources of equity for the brand? Brand equity helps the customers to recognize the brand among other brands quickly and to simplify the buying decision process. It is the differential effect of brand knowledge on consumer responses to the marketing of a brand. The two components of Brand equity are Brand awareness and Brand image. The main goal is to make sure that the way the consumer perceives the brand and the way the brand owner defines what the brand stands for overlap as much as possible. EasyJet derives the most from the perceived quality. “The perceived quality refers to; A customer’ opinion of a product’ value to him or her. It may have little or nothing to do with the product’s market price and depends on the product’s availability to satisfy his or her needs or requirements”1 Easyjet is really focusing on this aspect because they are expanding and they are already flying to 129 destinations mainly in Europe. The second source is loyalty, they try to exceed or meet the passengers expectations to make sure they will fly with EasyJet. They control whether the passengers enjoyed their flights by sending a questionnaire to the passenger several days after they have flown with EasyJet.…

    Customer Service and Cabin Crew

    In 1971, Southwest Airlines revolutionised air travel with its low fares and strong focus on customer service. Ryanair used Southwest’s innovative business model and have become very successful. Today it operates across 26 countries and carries more international passengers than any other airline in the world (73 million passengers in 2010/11) On the other hand, unlike Southwest Airlines, Ryanair did not consider focusing on customer service. They have a very poor reputation in this area (Euromonitor International, March 2009). Even though Ryanair holds its dominant position in the market and continues to increase its revenues every year, this will have a negative effect on its success in the long term.…

    Strategic Analysis of Easyjet

    EasyJet the airline industry was founded in 1995 by Stelios Haji- Ioannou and from thence struggled to maintain their competitive position in the airline industry. By introducing the ‘no-nonsense’ theory to the European market, after its deregulation in 1992, easyJet did prove power by increasing the size of the low-cost market and winning passengers from prominent traditional airlines as Lufthansa and British Airways. Stelios Haji-Ioannou established the company which is based on the low-cost, economy model of the US carrier southwest. EasyJet based it’s believe on the concept that cutting needless costs and ‘extras’ that typify traditional airlines would contribute to a change in fares.…

    With Reference to the Measurement of Tangible Non-Current Assets, Critically Evaluate Whether Financial Statements Prepared Using Ifrs’s Provide Useful Information. Use Specific Examples from the Annual Reports of Ftse

    As the business environment grows and companies find new ways to expand into their respective - or even new – markets, it is important that reporting standards stay up to date with changes and continue to assist companies in providing their users with useful accounting information. Information is labelled as being useful when it meets the qualitative characteristics set out by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The IASB is responsible for “the development and endorsement of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs)” (IFRS, 2011).…

    Ryanair

    In April 1986, the Ryan brothers announce that Ryanair will offer service between Dublin and London, a route dominated by Aer Lingus and British Airways. AL and BA offer a range of tickets with varying restrictions and varying classes of service, but the least expensive, unrestricted round-trip fares were priced at IL208, far higher than the IL98 that Ryan Air announced. Ryanair’s strategy to launch a single far no restriction ticket at such a low price will gain market share quickly as well as possibly obtain some of the 750,000 travelers that opt to use rail and sea ferries for IL55.…

    Despite being a hugely successful company, with revenues in 2013 of Euro:4,884 million, and profits of Euro:569 million, the ‘no-frills’ airline Ryanair has a number of problems. It regularly comes bottom, or near the bottom, of every major customer satisfaction survey, customers regularly use social media to complain about the dreadful quality of service, its belligerent CEO, Michael O’Leary, brushes aside any criticisms of his company, claiming that he gives customers what they want – cheap ‘no-frills’ flights with little quality service - and there is even a website called ‘I Hate Ryanair’ (see www.ihateryanair.org). But things are changing. In 2013 and 2014, faced with reductions in predicted profits, many shareholders, plus other key stakeholders, are asking Michael O’Leary many tough questions, and are demanding that Ryanair radically improves its levels of customer service, turns its negative publicity into positive publicity by managing its communications more effectively, plus radically improves its overall corporate reputation. Ryanair’s CEO O’Leary finally agreed, and made 2014 the year of change for Ryanair (see: www.ryanair.com/en/news/ryanair-announces-customer-service-improvements-over-next-6-months, plus also ww.thedrum.com/news/2014/01/17/ryanair-insists-it-s-changing-2014-weekly-twitter-chats-and-new-irish-ad).…

    Ryanair

    Although the strategy of Ryanair seems sound, I don’t expect it to succeed on the Dublin-London route. By matching service and amenities but pricing well below Air Lingus and BA, Ryanair stands to steal customers up to capacity of it’s 44-seat turboprop 4 times a day. This loss of customers, though small at this point, could likely elicit a strong response from both AL and BA. The Dublin-London route represents one of the few lucrative routes and one that both flagship airlines will likely guard intensely. Ryanair’s entry into this route represents a minor loss of revenue in the near term but a potentially major loss of revenue in the future if they expand. In addition, Ryanair’s successful entry could entice other carriers to enter this route, further eroding profits. Air Lingus and BA both stand to lose tremendously if they do not prove there are high barriers to entry for Ryanair and future would-be competitors.…
