An Airline that offers a broad range of services in an effort to improve the overall traveler experience is known as a full-service carrier. Offering a variety of cabin classes with differing degrees of comfort and conveniences, like more legroom, first-class seating, and in-flight entertainment systems, is one way to do this. Meals and drinks are usually provided free of charge to passengers, with more expensive classes offering more upscale alternatives. Furthermore, full-service airlines provide a more liberal baggage policy that permits both checked bags and substantial carry-on allowances. In addition, the airline provides upgraded airport amenities including priority check-in and lounge access, guaranteeing a more convenient and enjoyable journey from beginning to end.

Driving Factors- When it comes to seating, full-service carriers (FSCs) usually have more room than budget airlines. More legroom and broader seats are two examples of this, which can greatly improve passenger comfort especially on lengthy flights. FSCs sometimes include meals and refreshments in the ticket price, in contrast to many low-cost carriers that charge for meals or have few alternatives. This can improve the entire trip experience and range from basic snacks to fine dining. FSCs can provide a wider choice of destinations and more convenient connections because of their membership in alliances such as Star Alliance, SkyTeam, and Oneworld. Traveling across airlines is made easier by the fact that a person traveling with one alliance member can frequently book a flight with another member on the same ticket.

Challenges- Since FSCs depend more heavily on premium travelers and have greater service costs, economic downturns or recessions may result in a decrease in both business and leisure travel. If revenues and costs are denominated in different currencies, FSCs operating abroad may be exposed to risks associated with exchange rate movements that could impact their profitability. Adherence to many domestic and global regulatory frameworks can be intricate and financially demanding. Safety, security, and passenger rights regulations fall under this category. Costs associated with upgrading to more fuel-efficient planes and deploying green technologies may increase as demand to cut carbon emissions and embrace more sustainable practices increases.

Covid-19 had a significant impact on Full-Service Carrier Market. A few airlines also lowered their fleet sizes and postponed or cancelled orders for aircraft. Concentrating on vital and lucrative routes, Airlines frequently reallocated resources to home markets where demand was comparatively greater. New health and safety regulations were put in place by FSCs, including required mask wear, improved cleaning procedures, and social distancing. Investment and acclimatization to new operating processes were necessary due to these changes. Many FSCs had to furlough or fire staff due to financial difficulties. This has an impact on ground personnel and other support positions in addition to flying crews.
