Abstract
This paper investigates the effect of fleet commonality on operating performance of low-cost airlines. It examines the role fleet size and route length variations on this relationship. Results of an analysis of 28 airlines show that fleet commonality is positively associated with operating performance. Further, fleet size positively affects this relationship, whereas route length variations do not.
