Community Air Strategy Should be Based on Reliable Data
Do Not Determine Air Strategy by Your Gut

Community Air Strategy needs consistency with your target airlines. Airlines make decisions based on reliable data and they expect their partners to do the same. You need to speak the airlines language which is data driven. You will not convince the airlines to add air service or capacity without reliable analysis supporting your proposal.

Community Air Strategy should not be driven by your gut or the gut of a member or members of your board or community. Community Air Strategy decisions should ignore anecdotal information. Too often a personal bias can inflate the demand for one destination or another and could drive you to choosing the wrong airline to the wrong destination for your air service.

Community air strategy should a) use reliable and pertinent data, b) have professional analysis of the data  and c) ignore all non-data supported assumptions and arguments which can mislead the community into air service errors.

Let your gut do the job intended, the storage and processing of food. Drive your Community Air Strategy with valid data that has been expertly analyzed.
