The airline industry has been subject of intense price competition since it was deregulated, and the
result has been a number of new carriers which specialize in regional service and no-frills operations. 
These carriers typically purchase older aircraft and often operate outside the industry-wide computerized
reservations system. In exchange for these inconveniences, passengers receive low fares relative to the
industry as a whole. This research examines two low fare air carriers, ValuJet and Southwest Airlines. 
By investigating these air carriers, we can better understand the economic impacts of price versus
service in the airline industry as a whole, as well as, the impacts on passenger and investor confidence. Until 1978, air transport rates were approved by the government, which meant that price was not a primary
competitive factor. Instead, airlines would compete on service and image. The airline industry was

by regional carriers, such as Southwest, which offered short trips between airports not served by the
nationals.

national and regional carriers were suddenly able to compete in an environment that resembled a free
market. Rate schedules were lifted, price fixing
