Air
Airlines have a high fixed cost in infrastructure and equipment.
Labor and fuel costs are largely trip related and independent of the number of passengers or amount of cargo carried on a flight.
An airline’s goal is to maximize the daily flying time of a plane and the revenue generated per trip.
Air carriers offer a very fast and fairly expensive mode of transportation. Small, high-value items or time-sensitive emergency shipments that have to travel a long distance are best suited for air transport.
Air travel is a common form of transportation for long-distance passenger and freight travel and the only reasonable alternative when time is of the essence. The tremendous speed of the airplane, coupled with more competitive pricing, has led to the growth of air transportation, particularly in the movement of passengers.
The airlines are a unique and important group of carriers that meet some particular needs. Although their share of the freight movement on a ton-mile basis is small, the type of traffic that they carry (high-value, perishable, or emergency) makes them an important part of total transportation system.
