Outline of the seminar
With member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) enjoying remarkable economic growth and increasingly strengthening their economic relations with Japan, the ASEAN aviation market is a subject that Japan’s aviation industry insiders should closely follow. This market has been affected by the strategies of AirAsia and other low-cost carriers (LCCs) ever since such operators made their foray in the early 2000s.
The Colloquium accordingly presents the recent state of recovery in ASEAN’s aviation demand through comparison with Japan, and explores the strategies of airlines while noting how ASEAN LCC service offerings have shifted over time through the competition with full-service carriers (FSCs). Building on this exploration, the Colloquium also offers pointers as to the future efforts that ASEAN and Japan’s aviation markets should make in light of the pandemic.
