AVT 3050 Airline Marketing and Customer Service sample papers, module by module

Reviewed by Edgar Pennington, MBA · Airline Marketing and Customer Service · Thomas Edison State University · Free custom samples in 24–48h

AVT-3050 teaches how airlines find, win and keep customers, built on Shaw’s Airline Marketing and Management and a required case on Malaysia Airlines after MH370 and MH17. Because the final project is a marketing plan for a fictional airline, the samples here follow one invented carrier, Boardwalk Air at Atlantic City, from segmenting South Jersey travelers through its product, communication, loyalty program and service rules to a full first-year plan.

Send the exact assignment or rubric from your classroom and a custom sample written to it lands in 24 to 48 hours, the first one free. AVT-3050 is TESU’s Airline Marketing and Customer Service course. It covers airline marketing fundamentals and segmentation, the airline product and its life cycle, communication, social media and crisis communication, loyalty programs, customer service and recovery, and distribution channels, through six discussions, seven written assignments, a proctored midterm and final and a marketing plan for a fictional airline.

What AVT-3050 is really about

Readings come from Shaw’s Airline Marketing and Management and Pandey and Singh’s Malaysia Airlines case, across six modules that open with Airline Marketing Fundamentals and the Airline Product Life Cycle, pass through communication, loyalty and customer service, and close on Airline Distribution Strategies.

The final project is a marketing plan for a fictional airline, with its rubric in the final project submission link.

What AVT-3050’s assessments ask for

Seven written assignments carry 37 percent, six discussions 18 percent, the midterm and final exam 15 percent each and the marketing plan 15 percent.

Where students lose points in AVT-3050

Marks go on segments named but never chosen, one life cycle stage for a whole airline, case summaries without lessons, loyalty programs copied from large carriers, recovery without policies and plans whose numbers change from page to page.
