An Analysis of Ryanair's Corporate Strategy by Miriam Mennen Pdf

Essay from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 72 % - A, University of Sunderland, course: Global Corporate Strategy, language: English, abstract: Ryanair was founded in 1985 as a family business that originally provided full service conventional scheduled airline services between Ireland and the UK. The airline started to compete within the confines of the existing industry by trying to steal customers from their rivals, especially the state monopoly carrier Air Lingus, outlined by Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne (2004) as "Bloody or Red Ocean Strategy". Ryanair seemed to follow a "me-too strategy"; according to Osborne, K. (2005), they "tried to be all things to all people". Even they started restructuring; their strategy was not enough differentiated and their cost advantage was too low to be profitable. Ryanair then created a competitive advantage through the alignment of the three components of business systems; 1)Creating superior value for their customers (outside perspective) 2)Supplying their superior value-adding activities in an effective and efficient manner (which jointly form the "Value Chain") 3)Possessing over the resource base required to perform the value-adding activities, (inside perspective) According to Porter (1987), "corporate strategy is what makes the corporate whole add up to more than the sum of its business unit parts." It is seen to be concerned with the overall purpose and scope of the organisation and to meet the expectations of major stakeholders. All aspects of Ryanair's value chain are important to the company and their shareholders as Ryanair's decisions add value to both. The following report outlines the three perspectives of shaping Ryanair's business system. The value creation dimension of Ryanair's business model will be outlined, considering the theories of Porter and the more recent authors Kim and Mauborgne (2004). Further, the l

The value creation dimension of Ryanair’s business model will be outlined, considering the theories of Porter and the more recent authors Kim and Mauborgne (2004). Further, the linkages in the airline’s value chain and their resource base will be analysed, considering Hamel and Prahalad’s (1990) core competency model (inside-out approach). In section 2, the future challenges of the airline are considered. Ryanair’s strengths and weaknesses will be analysed, internal value creating factors such as assets, skills or resources, to consider how the airline can create alignment to its opportunities and threats, external factors. An stronger “outside – in” approach for Ryanair’s future corporate strategy will be considered, applying Porter’s five forces model, placing the market, the competition, and the customer at the starting point of the strategy process.

Case Study Japan Airlines by Svenja Stellmann Pdf

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,0, Northumbria University, course: Strategic Management and Leadership, language: English, abstract: Japan Airlines Corporation (JAL) is the leading full-service airline in Asia operating in the domestic and international passenger air-transport industry. However, in 2009 JAL's financial situation is alarming. 2009 was completed by a ¥51bn operating loss, representing a decrease of ¥140bn from previous year. In comparison, JAL's major competitor All Nippon Airways manages to stay in the black. This means JAL's competitive position is clearly in danger. Even worse - if JAL does not find a new strategic option immediately they are in danger of going bankrupt soon. This paper intends to find such a strategic option to guarantee future success of the airline. A thorough strategic analysis including an internal and external analysis is used to find out the key strategic issues. Afterwards three possible strategic options are discussed. The most promising option is put forward and its implementation issues are thoroughly discussed.

Strategic Planning in the Travel and Tourism Industry. Case Study Ryanair by Leonard Kahungu Pdf

Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Company formation, Business Plans, grade: 78.00, , course: LRPM, language: English, abstract: This report seeks to develop a strategic plan for Ryanair to enable it gain a competitive advantage, and sustain its growth in the midst of emerging and unique challenges in the operational environment. Ryanair was established in 1985 by Tony Ryan, Liam Lonergan, and Christopher Ryan. Initially, the flight started with a small carrying capacity but gradually expanded following the development of conducive operational environment. In particular, Ryanair experienced tremendous growth in 1992, following the deregulation of the airline industry in the EU. This company seized the opportunity to expand and overtook the British Airways and Aer Lingus in 1995. Ryanair also exploited the technological advancements in 2000 by launching a website and ensured more than three quarters of its bookings were made via the company’s website. Nonetheless, Ryanair recorded a significant degree of financial losses in 2003 for the first time in a decade. This was followed by quick interventions which saw Ryanair explore new routes especially in the Eastern Europe. Notably, Ryanair’s growth has been impressive over the last few decades, especially between 1985 and 2011. However, the airline company has experienced turbulent forces in the last few decades as illustrated by financial losses reported in 2003, and recently in 2009.

Ryanair. SWOT Analysis of the Leading Low Fare Airline by Irina Düsseldorf Pdf

Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 2,7, , course: Strategic Management, language: English, abstract: Ryanair is Europe’s leading low cost airline and offers the lowest fares on the airline market. But the question is how the small Irish company can count 103,000,000 international passengers in the fiscal year 2015, only 30 years after having been established. Why does Ryanair have a high recognition value for its brand, despite doing the advertising in-house and distributing only by using online channels? What is more, Ryanair does not offer customer loyalty programs, they do not have free drinks or food on-board; they even do not need external cleansing power for their fleet. And why no other low cost airline, like Easyjet or Lufthansa’s subsidiary Germanwings, overtook Ryanair’s competitive advantage to set the prices on the market? Actually they tried, but it still not working. What is so unique about the Irish Airline and how successful they compete with the airlines until today, will be demonstrated further in this assignment using the SWOT analysis.

Aviation and Tourism by Anne Graham,Andreas Papatheodorou,Peter Forsyth Pdf

Transport is an essential element of tourism, providing the vital link between the tourist generating areas and destinations. Good accessibility, which is determined by the transport services provided, is a fundamental condition for the development of any tourist destination. Moreover the transport industry can be a major beneficiary of tourism because of the additional passenger demand that may be generated. Aviation is an increasingly important mode of transport for tourism markets. Whilst geography has meant that, in modern times, air travel has always been the dominant mode for long distance travel and much international tourism, moves towards deregulation, and in particular the emergence of the low cost carrier sector, have also increased aviation's significance for short and medium haul tourism trips. Thus developments in aviation can have very major implications for many leisure and business tourism markets. However the characteristics and needs of leisure travellers are generally so very different from business travellers that this necessitates a separate consideration of these markets if a detailed understanding of the relationship with aviation is to be gained. In spite of the obvious closeness between the aviation and tourism industries, there are very few specialist texts on this subject. Most tourism focused books consider aviation as just one component of the tourism industry which needs to be discussed, whereas aviation specialist texts rarely concentrate on just leisure travel. In addition there is very little literature that gives a detailed appreciation of the complexities and potential conflicts associated with the development of coherent and effective aviation and tourism policies. Therefore it is the aim of this book to fill this important gap which exists with a comprehensive, in-depth study of the relationship between aviation and leisure travel. The book deals exclusively with issues related to the relationship between aviation and leisure travel. It does this with an analysis of the theoretical concepts relevant to the subject area combined with a detailed investigation of current practice within the aviation and tourism industries. Each chapter is illustrated with case study material that will reinforce the understanding of the issues that are being examined.

The Low-cost Airline Ryanair by Stefanie Hoffmann Pdf

Essay from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: B+, Cardiff University (University), 29 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Just a few years ago Ryanair was a tiny, impoverished Irish airline trying unsuccessfully to compete with Aer Lingus using a handful of elderly turboprop planes. In 2003 its share price is so high the company is worth more than British Airways, and with the unlikely business model of selling seats for as little as 99 Pence for the privilege of flying to airports perhaps fifty miles outside the cities they purport to serve, Ryanair has become the most profitable airline in Europe. It is also an airline whose phenomenal success has never been too far from controversy, whether it is its militant lack of sympathy for its passengers when their flight is delayed or cancelled, its robust approach to industrial relations, or indeed the industrial language favoured by its charismatic and buccaneering chief executive, Michael O′Leary. (Creaton, 2005) The following questions will critically evaluate the Ryanair phenomenon and its future prospects with taking the European airline industry into consideration.
