Evaluation of the competitiveness of airlines based on the multicriteria ranking method.
Abstract
The article presents the results of critical review of domestic and foreign scientific literature on the assessment of the competitiveness of airlines. Scientific and methodological recommendations for assessing the competitiveness of airlines of the Russian Federation using mathematical tools of cluster analysis and multi-criteria ranking are proposed. The article discusses the structure of divisions and leagues of the airline. It is proposed to form three leagues of airlines (passenger, cargo and mixed) and five divisions. Assessing the competitiveness of domestic airlines is offered in four stages. In conclusion, the matrix “size – loading of the fleet of airlines” was compiled. The results of practical approbation of the task of assessing the competitiveness of certain airlines are presented.
