Comparison of the Organizational Structure of Low-Cost and Traditional Airlines

Zračni prijevoznici diljem svijeta moraju kontinuirano pratiti i prilagođavati se tržišnim promjenama kako bi opstali u jakom konkurentskom okružju. Nakon deregulacije i liberalizacije tržišta zračni promet se počinje mijenjati što uvelike utječe na zračne prijevoznike te njihov model i način poslovanja.

Različite vrste organizacijskih struktura pokazuju raspodjelu poslova u odnosu na broj zaposlenih i način suradnje koji će imati najbolju učinkovitost.Airlines around the world need to continuously monitor and adapt to market changes in order to survive in a strong competitive environment.
