Data visualization approach

The visualizations use distinct colors to identify whether a passenger is satisfied or not. Each visual presents an overview of the trends or patterns in the data. For example, the first chart in the dashboard uses a single visual to represent ten different rating categories, allowing dynamic selection of the rating type. Important variables include customer type, travel type, class, gender, and age distribution.

Insights

The analysis reveals that 57% of passengers are not satisfied with the airline’s services. This dissatisfaction is widespread across all categories except for business class passengers. New passengers are particularly dissatisfied, with over 18,000 out of 23,780 new passengers reporting dissatisfaction.

Recommendations

From the visualizations and the insight generated, it is worth noting to recommend that the company should implement the following:

  1. Upgrading seating comfort.
  2. Improving in-flight entertainment options.
  3. Enhancing meal quality and variety
  4. A dedicated onboarding process that educates new passengers about the services and amenities.
  5. Personalized welcome packages or messages.
  6. Enhanced support and assistance during the travel experience.
  7. Strengthen loyalty programs to retain frequent flyers and incentivize repeat business, providing tangible rewards and benefits for continued patronage
