PR Aviation is an independent organization, who’s objective it is to provide airline & air travel information to business and pleasure travelers, as well as aviation enthusiasts. Our target market is business-to-consumers, fulfilling a liaison function between e.g. airlines and consumers. The main method to achieve this, in our opinion, is by providing the information over the Web.
One of PR Aviation’s first projects is the development of this Website "Fly Low Cost", providing information on low cost airlines world wide, in order to create global awareness and encourage business and pleasure travelers in flying with these airlines.

"Fly Low Cost" focuses on providing information about low cost airlines only, around the world, to business as well as pleasure travelers, whereby we would like to offer the following services:
-
To select on a per continent basis routes operated by low cost airlines. Selecting a city from which to depart will show the possible destinations. When selecting the latter, the low cost carrier(s) and timetable(s) for that selected route is presented. Also, the lowest “as of” fare is provided when available.
-
From this timetable page the internet user can select the departing and/or arriving city to obtain general information on how to get to and from the airport by car, taxi, train or bus.
-
More importantly is the possibility for the user to select (click on) the airline’s logo, which will link directly to the airline’s Reservation page on the airline’s Website. This will allow for the internet booking to take place.
-
For the aviation enthusiasts we offer a brief portrait of the airline with some pictures of their aircrafts.
-
Several pages are dedicated to providing travelers general Travel Information & Conditions, as well as Travel Tips.
-
In order to provide the traveler a complete package of services, we have included global world wide car rental, hotel reservation and travel insurance services as well.
-
The “news” page will keep the customers informed about the latest promotions published by the airlines. Even better, the customers can subscribe to a mailing service, which will keep them updated on new promotions on a per continent basis. For this, we ask the customers to enter and submit a questionnaire, which will give us a better insight on their travel expectations, travel backgrounds, knowledge of low cost carriers and experiences.
-
A somewhat strange addition to the Website is the job vacancies information for those that are interested in an employment with a low cost airline.
Millions of people are traveling from country to country, from continent to continent, many of which are business travelers, but most of them are pleasure travelers. The majority of travelers have been using travel agents or regular airline service desks for their travel arrangements. However, the travel arrangement booked through the internet is growing and travelers have become more and more costs conscious.
Travelers within a certain country or continent are reasonably aware of the existence of low cost airlines in their country/continent, because of, among others, the local advertising that takes place. However, travelers visiting other continents are not at all familiar with the low cost airlines that exist, the services they provide and thus the advantages they could offer budget conscious travelers.
We believe therefore that the main advantages of our Fly Low Cost Website for the low cost airlines are:
-
The creation of global awareness throughout the world of the existence of and services provided by low cost airlines, as well as offering the possibility to make reservations with these airlines.
-
The promotion of the low cost airlines through PR in national newspapers in continents outside the scope and reach of the airline’s marketing perspective.
-
As a result of this liaison role our Website will have, the low cost airline see an improvement of their average load factor, thanks to the increase of passengers visiting from other continents.
-
The mailing service we provide will also help in ensuring that promotions reach potential travelers in many continents.
-
Finally, we believe that the information we gather from our questionnaires will help the airlines in reviewing their services and in their marketing activities.
