Summary Introduction
Case summary: There are unmistakably a greater number of failure among new airline companies than there are triumphs. In the previous couple of decades, the most outstanding triumphs have sought after a minimal cost or low- fare model. This case appears there is room in the market for a carrier that doesn't attempt to beat the challenge by offering the least cost, however by offering the best administration and the most engaging comforts.
