In the airline industry, pricing and revenue management teams must constantly navigate a highly competitive landscape.
With numerous airlines competing for market share, pricing and revenue management teams must stay informed about their competitors’ pricing strategies and market positioning to make informed pricing decisions. This is where competitive intelligence comes into play. Competitive intelligence involves gathering and analysing data on competitor pricing, capacity, customer segmentation, and market positioning, among other factors. By accessing competitive intelligence, pricing and revenue management teams can better understand the competitive landscape and adjust their pricing strategies to remain competitive while maximising revenue and profitability.

On all competitive routes, airline Revenue Managers routinely scour their markets for price opportunities and steering patterns, setting the best competitive yet attractive price points for all types of travellers. With Pharos, our customers predict and verify daily revenue management decisions in Pharos to steer prices in the days approaching take-off while carefully keeping prices competitive and visible through all channels. They value rapid price visualisation and use Pharos analytics alongside their revenue management systems and booking curve analysis.
Whatever competitor data subscriptions are routinely used by revenue managers and pricing teams, there is often a need to look at new routes or the need for fresher data. These ad hoc observation searches go beyond standard subscriptions and are obtained through the User Defined Search (UDS) application fed by the Infare global data feeds and any other source upon request. It is a pay-as-you-go data service integrated into Pharos as a separate tab with the possibility of exporting the data into XLSX or CSV. We also offer separate Data feeds for UDS data collection.
