Real-world solutions in a challenging environment
Airline Start-up & Development

ABA runs a successful scheduled airline and charter company and has been instrumental in successful airline start-ups as far a field as India and Africa, as well as within the UK and Ireland. From an "idea around the boardroom table" to feasibility study and on to full implementation, ABA can draw upon its experience and resource the necessary expertise in order to bring ideas to life.

Feasibility Studies

Studies can be produced to cover virtually every aspect of the industry, from market appraisal, aircraft selection, and start-up, to legislation, maintenance and new route development. Fixed price quotes are given whenever possible, and the package can be customised to meet budget expectations. Interim reporting allows termination if findings suggest a negative outcome.

Business Plans

Full business plans can be produced with statistical and financial forecasts covering a five year period. ABA has established a solid reputation for objectivity and accuracy. As a result, potential funding agencies place reliance upon the group’s investment projections, allowing them to minimise their own due diligence.





Airline Start-Ups

One of ABA’s key strengths is in managing start-ups. Our consultants have been instrumental in covering such undertakings, ranging from small executive operations through to full domestic and international airlines. Considerable experience has been gained in working with clients in the developing world.

Airline Management and Staffing

ABA advises on the optimum organisational and management structure for an airline and can assist in setting out required management qualifications. In many cases, a new department or division will require short-term foreign expertise during the transition to staffing by local nationals. ABA is able to recruit necessary personnel for this phase of development.

Reservations & Yield Management

At the heart of the airline is its ability to sell seats through its reservation system. The right system depends on company size, route structure, and services. If it is correctly adapted and configured, the system will ensure maximum load factors and yields. ABA is able to set up a complete reservations system.
