It is difficult to point out if these advantages are sustainable in the long-run, although when looking from an immediate perspective, they are not, except for the management culture and workplace environment, which is sustainable for the long run. As demonstrated with RBV and VRIO framework, the use of these advantages are important, that is, the way the organisation decides to exploit them. The brand awareness is very high, yet the company has not utilised it effectively enough, as they focus primarily on two things, a good service mentality and low-cost business model, which is homogenous to most of the organisations in the low-cost carrier industry. In addition, some of the advantages identified in the VRIO framework are very powerful, yet they are not something that others cannot copy. The major competition will arrive from existing competitors instead of the new-comers/new entrants, which require a massive amount of capital to achieve the status that AirAsia has acquired. Moreover, AirAsia is effectively utilising both the non-tangible and tangible assets that helps the business to gain some significant position in the industry. For instance, their technological position is good and they have invested some serious amount of money for the new Airbus 350, which would help them in improving their operational capabilities, and given them some level of advantage. But is this advantage sustainable? No. Since eventually its competitors would do the same. These advantage are not long-term based, instead they are short-term navigations in strategy to give them a significant push in capturing larger market.
