Strategic planning
As airlines assess long-term success criteria, alliances, and the changing competitive landscape, we can help craft strategy for business models and areas of defensible advantage.

Operations and finance support
We support airlines’ cost reduction strategies, crew and ground operations productivity improvements, MRO programs, OTP improvement and turn time reduction, operations control transformation, and ground handling performance improvement. From bankruptcy and turn-around situations to cash-flow forecasting, transaction modeling, and financial planning, we work with airline boards, CFOs, investors, and creditors.
