I choose this topic as airline travel market has grown substantially over the last few decades
and has been changing with the entrance of low-cost carriers that made airline transport much more a�ffordable for general public. In this thesis I would like to concentrate on pricing strategies of both low-cost and network carriers connected with the principles on which low-cost carriers operate in order to be able to charge lower fees than entrance carriers and thus attract customers. Special interest will be put on the analysis of pricing strategies of network carriers as a response to entrance of low-cost carriers and possible predatory pricing behavior aiming to eliminate the competition and to retain dominant position on the market. The aim of this thesis is to show that network carriers do not engage in predatory behavior. As an actual example I am going to analyze European airline market and pricing strategies of European carriers with Ryanair and easyJet being the leading European low-cost carriers with high share of the market and Lufthansa, Air France, British Airways and Iberia as the biggest competing network carriers. Preliminary structure of work: 1. Introduction 2. Background of the airline industry market 3. Pricing strategies in general 4. Predatory behavior in general 5. The case of European airlines 6.
