Movements using aircraft are continuously increasing. This is because options for airlines, including eight national airlines, are becoming more diverse. In particular, FSC and LCC provide different services and prices, so it is not easy to choose, but it is analyzed that safety is the most important factor when selecting airlines in 2013 and 2017(all age groups are the same). There was a difference between 2013 and 2017 for each age group. In particular, the importance of price factors is high in 2017 compared to 2013, and other items in the 40s and 50s are also significantly changed.

Purpose - Nowadays the competition between companies has been intensified in the aviation industry. It is hard to maintain successful market share in challenging managerial environment. Not long ago, a Korean major aviation company had faced social condemnation cause of managerial staff's immoral behaviors. That company suffers great losses in company brand value in terms of authenticity as an aviation company. This research tried to show the effect of brand authenticity in the aviation industry. First of all, this research tried to define the dimensions of the brand authenticities based on the former researches. This research suggested the airline brand authenticities as three kinds of dimensions. The dimensions of authenticities consist of performance aspects, symbolic aspects and moral aspects. And this research also tried to show the relationships between brand authenticities and consumers attitudes. Research design, data and methodology - The empirical research design is based on the experiments with six types of advertisement prototypes. The advertisement prototypes were based on three types of authenticities' characteristics. The prototypes were made of core statements about each authenticity. And the advertisement prototypes also were based on the aviation company types. The types of aviation companies could be divided into FSC(full service carrier)and LCC(low cost carrier). So the whole experiments were performed with six kinds of advertisement prototypes(3 brand authenticities X 2 aviation company types). The age of participants were from 20s to 40s. The proportion of participants' demographics are as follow. Age proportion is 50% of 20s and 50% of 30s and 40s. Gender proportion is 46% males and 54% females. The experiments performed through mobile devices. Advertisement prototypes were exposed to the participants through their mobile devices, and they answered the questionnaires. All the process of experiments were performed by a professional research firm to maintain the quality of data. Results - This research suggested some important outcomes as follow. First, brand authenticity had an important role to make a positive consumer attitude on the aviation company. All the three types advertisement of authenticities had a positive impact on the consumer attitude for the aviation company. Second, the three types of brand authenticities in the performance aspects, symbolic aspects, and moral aspects had a major impact on the consumers attitudes. The performance authenticity had the biggest effect on the consumer attitudes. Third, the types of aviation companies like FSC and LCC had a different correlation with types of authenticities. All the types of authenticities affected on the consumers attitudes in the FSC case. The symbolic authenticity had the biggest effect in the FSC case. But the performance authenticity showed the most striking effect in the LCC case. Conclusion - From this research, we can get a conclusion. The brand authenticity of aviation company should be managed carefully to maintain a positive brand image and consumers attitudes. And airline brand authenticities can be consist of three type dimensions. All the types of authenticities affects on the consumers attitudes positively. The symbolic authenticity affects more in the FSC case, and the performance authenticity influences more in the LCC case.

Low Cost Carrier(LCC)s in Asia Pacific market are expected to record high growth due to the expansion of Open Sky Policy among Korea, Japan, China and South East Asia. As everybody is aware of, LCC is not only saving flight cost but also creates differentiating business model by reducing unnecessary services such as F&B and in-flight duty free sales services. Booming LCCs in Asian market will cause not only Incheon airport but also other local airports in Korea to compete heavily to attract LCCs. For example, Air Asia Group with more than 200 fleet has expanded its alliance network throughout Asia. Therefore this paper has researched a new business model operating a LCC terminal for the hub airport competitiveness. According to analysis result of case study, it was found out, considering increasing airline demand next decade, Incheon airport and other domestic airports in Korea had better change an existing terminal into a LCC Terminal(LCCT) to differentiate airport services and expand its hub network. That is because of economic feasibility, first of all, of securing hub and spoke networking capabilities with airlines and finally of developing commercial facilities customizing LCC passengers' demand.

본 연구는 장거리 LCC인 AirAsia X의 네트워크 구축에 있어서의 특성을 FSC인 말레이시아 항공과 비교 분석하여 장거리 노선 진입 및 확대에 도움을 줄 수 있는 방향을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 장거리 노선 데이터를 OAG Schedule Analyser로부터 추출하여 SNA를 이용해 2개 시기 단위로 네트워크를 분석하였다. AirAsia X의 장거리 노선 진입 이후 말레이시아 항공은 유럽 및 중동 지역뿐만 아니라 전체적으로 꾸준히 노선이 축소된 것으로 나타났다. 반면 AirAsia X는 유럽 지역 등 초장거리 대신 중국을 중심으로 동북아시아 지역의 네트워크를 더욱 늘리면서 더욱 확대된 네트워크를 구축하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 연구 결과 LCC 또한 7,000km 이하 장거리 노선 시장에서 성장 가능성이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 안정적인 성장을 하기 위해서는 수익성 높은 일부 노선에 우선 진입한 뒤 보수적인 시각에서 단계적으로 노선을 확대하는 것이 매우 필요한 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구의 결과는 LCC의 장거리 시장 진입 및 네트워크 구축전략을 수립하는 것에 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.
