Airport congestion management
(UNIVERSITY OF MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY, 2015) Junaid Shahzad; Talha Naeem
Airports in early ages 1950's are opened with single runway and small passenger terminal. With growth in global aviation transport, the airport was facing congestion problems. Its inability to cope with the rising passenger traffic became critical by the 1970s. The basic cause of congestion is due to delays in flights which are mostly due to weather conditions. Transportation data show that the volume of traffic is also a major cause. The real issue occurs after the manufacturing of wide body aircraft Boeing 747 and Air Bus A-380. With the invention of such aircraft the parking, apron, runways, terminal, airports everything require expansion. This is not just because of the wide body aircrafts but also the trend of using air transportation as a mode of transport was used dramatically. Since the time management issue raises for the time of arrival and departure of aircraft also the embarkation and disembarkation of passengers occurred. Initially it was handled by expanding the airport terminal and other airport vicinity. This requires a lot of capital in expansion and also the space for airport. Not only this the security issues passenger services maintenance, cost of passenger related operations and other cost got increased. Weather climate and maintenance causes delay cancellation or swapping cause passenger congestions on airport. 9/11 issue changed the whole perspective of aviation industry where at effected the other operations of airports and airline also causes in a factor to increase passenger congestion. As the security was tightened and long passenger queue were seen enormously across the worlds largest and even on smallest airports.

A comparative study of international airline’s ancillary functions
(University of Management and Technology, 2016) Sajid Nadeem
The airline industry has been struggling to survive in economic turbulence throughout its history. The volatility of the industry structure has driven the policy makers to come up with new sources of income in order to survive the fierce competitions from local and foreign competitors and the high fuel costs. Although airlines have been generating non-ticket revenue in the past by auxiliary functions, e.g. ground handling, maintenance, cargo logistics, duty-free shopping, consultancy, charters, inflight catering, and so on but these functions were generally viewed as separate businesses.The current mutually destructive competition market has created what strategy guru W. Chan Kim called a Red Ocean. In order to create a blue ocean, airlines are now focused on competing through brand differentiation. One strategy for differentiation is offering lower airfaresvia unbundling and offering ancillary services.

General aviation (GA) is an important component of aviation in the Pakistan. It is clear that GA is a considerable component of the national airspace and airport system, even when only accounting for towered operations. Because of this significant presence, insight into GA is relevant to issues in air traffic management, air transportation infrastructure, and aviation safety, among others.

Flying in air was considered as a natural phenomenon. Birds in air became an inspiration for the mankind to fly. Flying in air attracts many people towards it.

Kites were being flown in the air for religious events and also for the sake of fun. Then, different colors of kites were made. With the passage of time, kites were used by the people to check the weather conditions. People were getting more towards flying then they started studying the principles on which birds flew. People wanted to fly in air and their desire became aspiration. After having a deep study in how birds fly. People made different handmade wings of feathers and flew in the air from the top of the hill and result was disastrous.

(University of Management and Technology, 2015) AwaisNadeem, Awais; Hafeez, Fatima
Project Report Strategic analysis of contemporary practices in hiring of pilots and cabin crew at Pakistan International Airlines Abstract We have completed this project for the requirement of our Bachelor’s degree program from University of Management and Technology. This report includes about the strategic analysis of contemporary practices being used or running in Human Resource Department of PIA. In this we have researched on the hiring process of pilots and cabin crew in PIA, That how PIA is hiring their pilots and cabin crew. Then we have compared this practice with national and international carriers that are operating and covering the market of Pakistan. We have seen during our research that there is a system in PIA, but being a government owned airline system could be compromised by some other means instead of getting hire on merit. There are many problems and lapses which should get resolve in time but according to our research we are just focusing on the contemporary practices of PIA. We have also studied some of the literature reviews of best hiring (R.R Impact of personnel recruitment in organization, Effect of selection and recruitment of employees, job satisfaction and retention of employees in an organization) and about the best HR practices of HR department in other organizations and learnt a lot from them and compared it with PIA’s practice. PIA is lacking its abilities, no doubt PIA has potential to grow and have one of the best and experienced employees but some serious problems are not letting PIA to grow. By comparing and analyzing PIA’s external(EFAS) and internal(IFAS) factors we got the result that PIA is on average rate and international and national airlines are giving high competition to PIA and they are playing in market with above average rating. In the end we have done its SWOT and PESTLE analysis, and concluded our report.
