...External Environment analysis Summary There have been turbulent times for the Australian airline industry. It has been confronted with the marked decline in international tourism in the aftermath of the September 2001 terrorist attacks in the US and, more recently traffic loss attributable to war in Iraq and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreaks in part of Asia and Canada. And off course, the global financial crises in 2008. While the domestic airline industry is largely deregulated, Australia’s international airline industry remains quite deregulated at the commonwealth level, as it is subject to the detailed capacity controls of airline service agreements (ASAs) that underpin the industry. These agreements control the amount of airline seat capacity which may be deployed on scheduled services over individual country to country routes; they are general of treaty status and are enforceable in international law. In another move to free up the international side of the industry, the Commonwealth adopted a policy of allowing more than one Australian owned international airline to operate scheduled services to and from Australia. However the September 2001 failure of the Ansett Airlines group brought an end to Ansett International's short-lived operations. Although Qantas is once again the only Australian flag carrier, Virgin Blue has signalled its interest in operating in some international markets in Australia's immediate region, such as the trans-Tasman market...

...major United States airline headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, in the United States. The airline's hub at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the world's busiest airport by passenger traffic (88 million passengers per year) and number of landings and takeoffs. Delta is the 3rd largest and the oldest airline still operating in the United States. Between 2001 and 2005, Delta airlines lost $10 billion. The firm’s cash assets had significantly fallen short of its debt obligation, which stood at $14 billion. Standard and Poor’s (S&P) placed Delta’s debt ratings on “credit-watch” with negative implications, citing critical liquidity problems. The leaders of Delta Air Lines’ pilot union had alerted their members that the firm might have to file for bankruptcy protection under chapter 11 of the American Bankruptcy Code. In a bit to increase the liquidity, Delta sold its subsidiary (Atlantic Southwest Airlines) to SkyWest Airline for $425 million in August 2005. At the time of the sale, Delta was also experiencing a major operational crisis. As Delta was struggling to pull together its restructuring plan to survive, many analysts believed that the airline was under an increasing risk of bankruptcy. However, Delta continue to grow throughout mergers and acquisitions as below: - In 1972, it merged with Northeast Airlines - In 1984, Delta expanded its reach in the domestic U.S market with its Delta Connection Program. Under this program, regional airlines could bring their...

...Boeing Management Planning Paper Marcia Davis MGT/330 January 12, 2011 Sylvester Taylor Boeing Management Planning Paper Boeing like many successful companies today does not stand still or rest on their laurels of previous accomplishments. If they do they can become vulnerable to competition, technology, changes in customer preferences, and the business environment. Instead, they use their current successes to continue to build a competitive advantage for the future, constantly seeking new ways to remain flexible, innovative, efficient, and responsive to their customers. One of the most important ways of accomplishing this is to make sure that their organization structures and systems remain adaptable. A business must always be prepared to meet the complex and ever-changing challenges that managers and their organizations constantly confront. Boeing like many other companies has to use innovations in design and manufacturing as well as a focus on quality and other vital factors in the development of airplanes. Not long ago Boeing was in turmoil in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorists attacks. (Bateman & Snell 2009) Boeing suffered turnover in their executive ranks that caused uncertainty coupled with their chief rival European-based Airbus surpassing them in annual sales, Boeing decided it was time to make some changes. The Boeing Company business has many members including employees, managers, chief executive officer James McNerney, and the board...
