How we helped
After a devastating pandemic winter, the low-cost airline that enlisted AlixPartners to rehabilitate its finances tallied a summer of record profits. What did it take? Deep financial support across the business, as well as help raising over $5 billion in public and private debt markets. We assisted on a multi-billion round of government fundraising and the successful completion of a sale and lease- back program.
Our team, made up of skilled practitioners from the Aerospace & Defense and TK other teams, implemented a highly flexible model that the company could use across all aspects of business planning after we left the project. We worked closely with finance, treasury, network, and strategy teams to ensure buy-in of the tool, and refined the particulars with iterative input from those teams.
The plan allowed for different funding, fleet plans, supply and demand scenarios, and network mixes, so the company would be able to weather future shocks. Whatever the wind blows in, company leadership is equipped to implement live decision-making and downside scenario modeling at speed.
