Oxera publiceert nieuwe analyse van luchtvaartmarkt in Europa, waaruit toegenomen concurrentie tussen vliegvelden blijkt

LONDEN–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Oxera Consulting LLP heeft een nieuw onderzoek verricht naar concurrentie tussen Europese luchthavens, met een analyse van de gevolgen van actuele markttrends voor de dynamiek tussen luchthavens en luchtvaartmaatschappijen in Europa.

Oxera concludeerde dat de Europese luchtvaartmarkt tussen 2010 en 2016 met 25 procent is gegroeid. De belangrijkste trends zijn de blijvende groei van LCC’s (low cost carriers) en niet-traditionele hubs in het Midden-Oosten. Deze ontwikkelingen droegen bij aan een intensivering van de rivaliteit tussen luchthavens op alle vlakken waar ze met elkaar concurreren.

 

 

Oxera Releases New Analysis on Europe’s Aviation Market, Revealing Increased Competition between Airports

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Oxera Consulting LLP has revisited the subject of airport competition in Europe, conducting research and analysis on the implications of recent market trends on the dynamics between airports and airlines in Europe.

Oxera found that the European aviation market grew by 25% between 2010 and 2016, with key trends including the continuing rapid expansion of LCCs (low-cost carriers) and non-traditional hubs in the Middle East and Istanbul. These developments have contributed to an intensification of the rivalry between airports, across all channels through which they compete.

With many of these trends now being long established, the competitive pressures on airports, of all sizes, across Europe are highly likely to endure and continue to develop, implying that regulators and government stakeholders will need to address this ‘new normal’.

Andrew Meaney, Partner and Head of Transport at Oxera said, ‘What our study confirms is that the competitive landscape of the European aviation market is evolving rapidly and competition between airports is both widespread and increasing. Many of the market trends driving this are well-established and likely to continue – further raising the pressure on airports of all sizes across Europe. In an industry with largely fixed costs and long design periods, this means that airports, their customers, regulators and governments will all need to come to terms with this reality.’
