Globalization and Air Transport: Strategies of Central European Legacy Carriers
Kořený, Petr ; Marada, Miroslav (advisor) ; Kopačka, Ludvík (referee)
As the world changes because of the globalization, the environment of the aviation changes as well. The airlines are forced to adapt to these changes and choose new strategies to operate successfully. The main objective of this thesis is to, according to the title, describe, identify and explain the processes which significantly affect current image of the world of aviation and focus on four Central European legacy carriers. The issues of globalization and its affect on behavior of economic actors, which airlines are, are discussed as first. The following part is dedicated to the characteristics of aviation and its components, the milieu and the behavior of the airlines as well as the newest strategic trends that are being chosen is described as well. The theoretical part is followed by the empirical one where the particular steps of examined airlines are analyzed and explained. The hypotheses concerning the probable behavior and adopted strategies of four analyzed carriers are expressed according to the discovered theoretical principles of the operations of current legacy (network) carriers. Whether the hypotheses are completely or partially confirmed, is discussed at the end of the empirical chapter. Key words: globalization, air transport, legacy carriers, airline alliances, hub and spoke, codeshare

Airline alliances
Hrehor, Filip ; Huňak, James (advisor) ; Barvínek, Jakub (referee)
This bachelor`s thesis focuses on evaluating the passenger perceptions of various airline alliances and comparing individual alliances while even utilizing the responses of passengers who don`t utilize services provided by airline alliances. The thesis draws from publicly available information on airline alliances, which are categorized by type of cooperation. Moreover, the thesis incorporates the history, evolution, and the outlook of airline alliances.

Determinanty ziskovosti leteckých tras v Evropské unii
Tománková, Ivana ; Lahvička, Jiří (advisor) ; Janíčko, Martin (referee)
This thesis examines the determinants of air route profitability in the European Union and the cooperating countries of Norway and Switzerland. Building on the assumption that only profitable routes are served, I develop a set of probit models that specify route service as a function of route characteristics, airline networks' attributes, airline partnerships and competition. Estimation results show that route profitability increases with population size and decreases with flight distance and the time efficiency of car travel relative to air travel. An airline's airport presence, that is, its share of airport operations, exerts a significant, positive effect on its route profitability, and so does airport presence of its group or allied partners. Competitive effects are asymmetric across airline business types. This paper's contribution to existing airline-route profitability studies lies in accounting for airline cooperation, controlling for an alternative mode of transport, and using EU data for estimation.

Airline Alliances
Korbel, Tomáš ; Novák, Radek (advisor) ; Bednář, Ladislav (referee)
The diploma work deals with the trends in the aviation traffic and the development of main competitors in airlines industry. The first part is focused on the detailed description, evoluation and analysis of the Czech Airlines CSA and its integration into one of the global alliance SkyTeam. It also includes the present status and the future development of this regional carrier compared with big carriers affecting the global air industry. The work is drawn primarily from available information on airline alliances, which are compared in selected aspects of a chosen criterion and show their influence on the national carrier CSA. Comparison is based on the data from last two years.
