Airline Deregulation Today

Airline Marketing Since September 11th
[ send me this paper ]
17 pages in length. The ripple effect of September 11th's terrorist attack has touched virtually each and every person in one way or another; however, perhaps nowhere was the detrimental impact felt more severely than in the travel industry. In essence, people were terrified to leave the safety and sanctity of familiar surroundings and, as a direct result, airplane travel plummeted to a new low. This reaction to the potential for subsequent attacks caused untold numbers of airline employees to be furloughed or laid off indefinitely, while the airlines themselves took such an economic beating that many required government bailout in order to remain in business. As such, marketing tactics have reflected the need for people to overcome their fear and once again support the airline industry's precarious existence. Bibliography lists 13 sources.

Airport Security Measures And The Impact Upon Operations Management
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The extent to which the airport industry environment is different now than prior to September 11, 2001 illustrates the significant lengths to which the nation's security system has been augmented. This vast development in the wake of America's worst terrorist attack in history is, however, said to be just as inefficient and incapable of averting another 911 episode as what existed before the fateful day; that the airport industry has strategically bolstered itself has made all personnel more keenly aware of the potential for a repeat performance, yet the ultimate performance of these presidential instituted mandates and the Transportation Security Administration role continues to leave gapping holes in the overall objective toward national protection. On a smaller scale, however, advancement is being made in certain areas where tremendous sweeps are not expected to occur – such as onboard – where a smaller cluster of people is able to make a bigger, more immediately visible and overall impact.
