To write a successful airline business plan, you must take several important trends in the airline industry and broader economy into account. What affect will these important trends have on the new airline?

  • Continuing volatility in oil and other commodity markets
  • A decline in personal disposable income as the economy slows
  • Anxiety over flying and travel restrictions as a result of terrorist attacks and war
  • Recent financial hardships and bankruptcies of major airline companies

  • What is the market demand for your new airline business?
  • How will you prove the feasibility of your new airline?
  • What kind of financing will you need, and how much?
  • What types of investors will you seek capital from?
  • What relevant past experience does your management team have, which you can leverage in your business plan?
  • What strategic partnerships will you forge?
