This launched at Routes Americas in San Juan with a presentation on Norwegian's recently introduced route between New York John F Kennedy International Airport and Martinique’s Aimé Césaire, the international airport of Martinique in the French West Indies.
It was successfully followed by two presentations at Routes Asia in Manila. These looked at the initial performance on Air India's recently launched link between Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport and San Francisco International Airport and insight into Emirates Airline's thinking behind its soon to launch new triangle route into the Philippines serving Clark International Airport and Mactan-Cebu International Airport from its Dubai International Airport hub.
It then continued at Routes Europe in Krakow with a presentation on the recently launched route from bmi regional between Southampton and Munich and which included input from both the airline and one of the airports served on the reasons why the route was selected. At Routes Africa in Tenerife the focus was Air Cote d’Ivoire's Abidjan - Abuja, although all the shortlisted routes were actually featured.
All of these presentations took place in front of a packed audience and will continue for the forthcoming World Routes forum in Chengdu in China.
We are currently scheduling two presentations to occur on the morning of Tuesday 27th September in Chengdu. These will look at the data behind the route development decision making and will hopefully also include insight from the airlines and airports involved. They will be conducted by our sister consultancy, ASM.
Have you wondered what enticed an airline to a certain destination? What the data says about demand on the city pair and connecting markets? What external factors may have influenced the airline in selecting a specific city pair? How this business case differs from others?
The 'Route Case' will seek to provide the answers to these questions and offer additional network development insights all within a single 20 minute meeting slot.
Today we open a poll for you to vote on which route you would like us to discuss in Chengdu during World Routes.
You have the choice between 15 options and voting will close at 00:01 GMT on Thursday 1st September, when we will announce the winning selection and add it to the formal programme for World Routes.
