Interesting data from a joint study by Amadeus and IdeaWorks outlining the top earners in the airline industry when it comes to ancillary revenue.
The project examined the disclosed financial performance of 96 airlines around the world, including low cost and other scheduled carriers, to produce detailed information on which airline is making the most from revenues gained from ancillary products.
Amadeus says the estimates include revenue from a la carte features such as baggage fees and food sold onboard aircraft, commissions from the sale of hotel accommodations, car rentals, and travel insurance at airline websites, and partner revenue generated by frequent flier programs.
