Recenzii

'In a period of unprecedented turmoil in the airline industry - deregulation, privatisation, terrorism threats and sky rocketing fuel prices - successful implementation of a winning strategy has never been more critical. Thomas Lawton’s collation of research papers creates a unique insight into the strategies deployed over the past 10 years by the phenomenally successful Low Cost Carriers and by the full service airlines fighting for survival - an indispensable reference of applied aviation strategy for professionals, regulators, advisors and students.' Ray Webster, President easyJet Airlines plc. '...an excellent companion to strategic management textbooks for students of the subject and a ready reference work for academics and practitioners.' Aerlines Magazine '...strongly recommend it to airline researchers, students, consultants and policymakers as a very good source of reference.' Journal of Air Transport Management
