Chapter 13 Competition on the Basis of Safety?

Ian Savage

A chapter in Pricing Behavior and Non-Price Characteristics in the Airline Industry, 2012, pp 297-323 from Emerald Group Publishing Limited

Abstract: Safety is arguably the most important “quality” attribute of commercial aviation, yet it rarely figures into overt interfirm rivalry. Usually, airlines do not even allude to their safety record vis-à-vis rivals in their advertising and press statements. Moreover, statistical analysis by independent parties usually indicates that peer airlines within the same geographic region and segment of the industry have indistinguishable safety records (Barnett, 2010).
