Airlines Project Overview

Introduction

• This video outlines a complete project on data analysis for an airline industry using Python and SQL.
• The project aims to analyze data and create a report addressing a business problem.
• Previous project on Data Answers is mentioned as reference.

Project Steps

1. Understand the Business Problem
   • Identify challenges faced by the airline industry:
     • Environmental regulations
     • Increased flight taxes
     • Tight labor market leading to higher costs
   • Goal: Minimize costs and increase profits by maximizing occupancy rates.
2. Import Libraries
   • Use libraries such as Pandas for data manipulation and visualization.
3. Database Connection
   • Connect to the database and extract data from various tables.
4. Data Exploration
   • Explore the structure of the database and identify variables needed for analysis.
5. Data Analysis
   • Perform basic analysis and specifically analyze occupancy rates.
6. Create Report
   • Summarize findings and present them in a comprehensive report.

Analyzing the Business Problem

• Objective: Increase occupancy rate to enhance profitability.
• Factors affecting profit: ticket sales, seat occupancy in flights, and overall operational cost.
• Business problem revolves around ensuring flights are fully booked to avoid losses.

Data Exploration and Analysis

• Tables Identified: Aircraft data, Airport data, Boarding pass, Booking, Flight data, Tickets.
• Analyze data focusing on:
  • Number of tickets booked
  • Total revenue generated over time
  • Average charge per aircraft based on different fare conditions.

Key Analysis Insights

1. Occupancy Rate:
   • Determine average occupancy rate and identify opportunities for improvement.
   • Explore strategies to increase occupancy to boost average profit.
2. Revenue Trends:
   • Analyze revenue patterns over time using visualizations to identify trends in ticket bookings.
   • Compare average revenue generated by different aircraft classes.
3. Generating Reports:
   • Present findings in report format focusing on key metrics and insights for stakeholders.

Conclusion and Recommendations

• The analysis can help airlines optimize their pricing strategy and improve customer experience.
• Recommendations include:
  • Focus on enhancing customer satisfaction and experience.
