Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore ways of service recovery and procedures through the service failure cases depending on the employee capacity that leads to improving quality of the airline cabin service. This study was tested using the failure case of airline in korea. Since interrupting and discontinuing of customer service affect customer defections, customer satisfaction must quickly respond to the service's error situation. The service of the cabin crew is closely related to the customer's evaluation, the direct connection. Customer's objectives are to meet employee needs for service recovery and to recognize and analyze customer perceptions of human resources services, restore customer expectations and maintain contracts with customers. Therefore, this study proposes a set of strategies for effectively preventing and responding to customer related service failure in the airline cabin service.

본 연구는 항공객실서비스의 인적서비스 역량에 따른 국내 항공사의 서비스 실패 사례를 분석하여 서비스 회복 방안 및 항공객실서비스품질을 향상시킬 수 있는 대응절차와 전략방안을 제시하였다. 항공사의 물적서비스와 인적서비스에 따른 서비스 실패는 고객의 이탈을 가져올 수 있고 기업의 수익성 향상에 부정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 그러므로 고객만족을 위해 서비스 실패 상황이 발생 시 신속한 대처를 통한 회복의 노력을 기울여 고객 불만이 재발되지 않도록 해야 한다. 특히 항공객실승무원에 의한 서비스 역량은 고객 평가와 밀접하게 연관되어 있으며, 객실서비스 회복을 위한 인적서비스 역량은 고객만족도에 매우 긍정적인 영향력을 가지고 있다. 따라서 항공객실 서비스의 고객 불만사례 원인을 분석함으로써, 서비스 실패가 발생했을 때 효과적이고 신속한 객실 승무원의 대응전략을 찾을 수 있다. 이를 통하여 기업은 고객의 기대가치를 회복하고 고객과 지속적이고 우호적인 관계를 유지함으로써 고객충성도를 이끌어낼 수 있다.
