In the paper, we propose a framework for evaluating the extent to which an airline has implemented a “low-fare” business model. The framework (SFC) consists of three dimensions: (a) strategic direction factors; (b) pricing factors; (c) cost structure factors (COFA).Strategic direction factors primarily focus on the top-level strategic decisions of an airline: growth concepts, the range of flights, spatial strategy and target group selection. These factors serve to differentiate the “lowfare” airlines from more traditional rivals on a strategic level.Pricing factors evaluate differentiators at the level of market offer: relative ticket prices, the number of booking classes, ticket restrictions, interlining, penalties, non-ticket income and target load levels. These factors ...

The feasibility study is the main product of the LiBiTOP project intended for the ministries and founders managing the libraries of national significance and county public libraries and also library managers. This document seeks to examine and provide guidelines on how to manage the libraries of national significance and county public libraries over the next decade so that they can effectively fulfill the exclusive functions assigned to them by law. The following objectives must be achieved before the aim can be implemented: 1. To identify the relevant roles and strategic activity directions for the analysed libraries over the next decade. 2. To assess the relevant strategic direction...
