Voraussetzungen / Organisatorisches:
This class will be taught in German or English, depending on students’ preferences. Familiarity with basic concepts of pricing, logistics, finance, controlling, and macroeconomics is an asset but not essential.
The class will take place as a block of four full-day lectures in the first week of the semester. Most subjects will build on each other over the course of the week. Thorough understanding of the material and passing the test at the end of the course will require regular attendance. Most, but not all material used in the class will be made available to students at the beginning of the course. Regular attendance and passing the exam (or the same course during SS 2015) are required for students who wish to attend the subsequent seminar (Projektarbeit), Airline Strategies in Practice.

Course description:
The course will focus on up-to-date airline strategies and address some of the strategic challenges of airports, manufacturers, and regulators. It will outline the regulatory framework of global aviation, including current aspects of controversy like emissions trading, national ownership and control, and state aid. The drivers of airline economics such as asset financing, asset utilization, HR, and relevant macroeconomics (i.e. fuel price) will be reviewed, as well as the specific complexities of airline controlling. Key airline functions such as pricing, revenue management, network planning, sales and distribution, flight operations, and some engineering aspects of the aviation system will be explained. The fundamental mechanisms of airline competition will be described. Understanding these aspects first will allow an in-depth analysis of typical airline strategies such as “low cost,” “regional,” “global multi-hub,” or others. The course will emphasize quantitative analysis whenever relevant.
