Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of airline corporate reputation on brand loyalty. An empirical analysis is carried out via a questionnaire survey of Korean airline passengers. The results from 250 respondents are then investigated using structural equation modeling. Airline corporate reputation is shown to have a significant influence on brand image, price, perceived service quality, and brand preference. In addition, price, perceived service quality, and brand preference have a statistically significant influence on behavioral loyalty and attitudinal loyalty.
