Major Airlines Change Strategy, Charge Fees and Boost Profits

It is worthwhile to look back at recent changes within the airline sector, prior to the pandemic. Some of the greatest growth among major airlines in recent years had been in the Middle East and Asia. The Middle Eastern market is dominated by Emirates, followed by Etihad Airlines and Qatar Airways. Emirates, now one of the world’s largest international airlines by passenger capacity, led the way with a business model that builds routes to developing countries that are often overlooked by U.S. and European carriers, and providing an alternative to local airlines. Emirates connects almost all of the world’s continents through its Dubai hub. The Asian market is dominated by Singapore Airlines, Air China, Cathay Pacific and Qantas, among others.

The latest news regarding major airlines in mid-2024 was the proposed acquisition of Hawaiian Airlines by Alaskan Airlines in a $1 billion deal. As of August 2024, the acquisition was approved by the U.S. Department of Justice and was waiting for approval from the U.S. Department of Transportation.
