A comparative analysis of productivity and fare variations of Nigerian Airlines

Abstract

This paper examined productivity variations occurring among different airlines In the study, quantitative techniques such as The pair-wise t-test was utilized in the analysis of the available seat kilometrage (ASK) performed by the various airlines within the study period. The study shows that, there were significant relationships between aircraft utilization, passengers operation and airline productivity, at 0.05 level. The relationship between fare and productivity was statistically insignificant at 0.05 level. There were also productivity variations occurring between different airlines selected for the study. We recommend that efforts should be made to quicken the time spent on the ground by aircrafts of various airlines operating in Nigeria, as less time spent by aircraft on the ground enhances aircraft utilization, which will in the main, boast productivity.
