How fleet commonality influences low-cost airline operating performance: Empirical evidence

Brüggen, Alexander and Levin Klose

Journal of Air Transport Management, 2010, vol. 16, issue 6, 299-303

Abstract: This paper investigates the effect of fleet commonality on operating performance of low-cost airlines. It examines the role fleet size and route length variations on this relationship. Results of an analysis of 28 airlines show that fleet commonality is positively associated with operating performance. Further, fleet size positively affects this relationship, whereas route length variations do not.
