MIT Global Airline Industry Program MIT has established a multidisciplinary team of faculty, staff and graduate students drawn from the Schools of Engineering, Management and Humanities and Social Sciences to study the global airline industry. The goal of this program is to develop a body of knowledge for understanding development, growth and competitive advantage in this industry, which is one of the most diverse, dynamic and perplexing of the world. The Global Airline Industry Program represents a large-scale effort that provides the means for MIT and the academic community to make a "great leap forward" in studying the airline industry and in educating its future leaders. This effort was established under the umbrella of the Sloan Foundation's Industry Studies Program and is supported by the MIT Airline Industry Consortium. What's New?

L'eTourisme est mort ! Le tourisme numérique est SoLoMo (Social-Local-Mobile). Si l’on s’en réfère aux dernières tendances du secteur avec des chiffres en progression forte et constante, il est de plus en plus réducteur aujourd’hui de parler d’e-tourisme tant le tourisme et les nouvelles technologies sont inexorablement voués à converger vers un tourisme numérique et connecté. Les comportements des voyageurs ne trompent pas avec comme conséquence directe des résultats plus que significatifs pour l’industrie touristique, premier secteur de l’e-commerce. On compte désormais pas moins de 6 européens sur 10 qui réservent leur voyage en ligne en 2011. Merci à Lucile Prouteau (pour sa réactivité) et Emmanuel Jacquel (chapeau l’artiste !) Ainsi, je partage les propos de Ludovic Dublanchet aux rencontres e-tourisme d’Anglet pour dire que l’e-tourisme est mort au bénéfice du tourisme numérique. [édit] Et un des principaux thèmes de la conférence PhocusWright au salon ITB Berlin de mars 2011. SO pour SOcial ! Quels sont mes objectifs ? LO pour LOcal ! MO pour MObile !

Over the last thirty years, a large number of airlines have invested heavily in traditional revenue management solutions while ignoring the possibly greater return on investment offered by revenue integrity solutions. What exactly is revenue integrity? This paper examines the benefits to be gained from developing a revenue integrity programme and puts the case for applying a consistent approach. Business drivers There are a number of business drivers for implementing revenue integrity solutions. We have already stated that airlines must ensure that the correct passengers travel on the correct flight at the correct fare. How revenue integrity problems occur An industry focus group A.R.I.G.

tripadvisor “TripAdvisor is to travel reviews what Kleenex is to tissues.” – Henry Harteveldt, Forrester TripAdvisor may be one of the most fascinating companies I know and so I was excited to dig into their business model as part of my series on scaling. This is a company that took $4 million of invested capital to build a company now worth over $4 billion. As I mentioned in my post last week, scaling is hard. Last week, I wrote about Akamai, a company with strong network effects that successfully transitioned from a single product to build a platform that garners over a billion dollars in revenue and is now a core part of the Internet’s fabric. TripAdvisor’s History: Two Big Pivots Founded in 2000 by Stephen Kaufer and Langley Steinert, Boston-based TripAdvisor is a travel website that provides reviews and other information for consumers about travel destinations around the world. TripAdvisor And Expedia: From $4 million invested to $4 billion in value Scaling Lesson 2: Maintain a Sense of Urgency
