• Differentiation strategy: Target customer segment is not price sensitive, Market is competitive, Consumers have specific needs which are under served The firm has unique solutions to satisfy these needs which are difficult to copy. It is considered to be a genuine strategy.
• Cost leadership strategy: It involves the firm wining the price sensitive market share. It has the lowest price available for the consumer. It operates at a lower cost as compared to its rivals and yet achieves profitability. It is not a competitive strategy as the customer doesn’t perceive it, unless it leads to lower prices.

which ran outdated 20 year old aircrafts.• Increased market share by buying other low cost airlines

different airports.
