Iinkqubo zokuhamba ngeenqwelomoya rhoqo zisisiseko sokuhamba ngenqwelomoya, ngakumbi abahambi beshishini rhoqo, kodwa ngaba bongeza kwiindleko zokuhamba kweshishini kubaqeshi? Uphononongo olutsha luthi, ewe.
Ngokutsho kuphononongo, iinkqubo rhoqo-flyer a win-win-ilahleko xa kufikwa ukuhamba emoyeni. I-airline iyaphumelela ngenxa yokuba iinkqubo zivelisa abathengi abathembekileyo nabaphindayo. Ilungu lenkqubo yamanqaku liyaphumelela ngenxa yenkuthazo yokufumana uphuculo lwenqwelomoya kunye namatikiti enqwelomoya asimahla. Kodwa kwiimeko apho umqeshi ethwala iindleko, umqeshi usenokulahlekelwa ngenxa yokuba usenokuba uhlawula imali eninzi yohambo kunokuba kuyimfuneko.
Uphononongo, "Ukufikelela kwiGolide: iNkuthazo yeSimo seFlyer rhoqo kunye neNgozi yokuziphatha," yabhalwa ngabaphandi abavela kwiYunivesithi yaseMichigan kunye IDuke University.
Abaphandi bahlalutya isiseko sedatha yenkqubo ehamba phambili yeenqwelo moya zase-US ezihlala rhoqo. Oku kubandakanya iimbali kunye neengongoma eziqokelelweyo ze-3.5 yezigidi zamalungu eprogram ehamba rhoqo ngexesha le-2010 kunye ne-2011 ye-point-earning cycles.
“Sifumanise ukuba ngokusondeleyo inkqubo yokubhabha rhoqo amalungu afikelela 'kwisimo esiphakamileyo' kokukhona ekwazi ukukhetha inqwelo-moya nokuba ixabisa kakhulu kunenqwelomoya yomntu akhuphisana naye,” batsho abaphandi. "Nangona esi sigqibo sisekwe kwizinto ezininzi, eyona nto ibalulekileyo kukuba ngaba abahambi ngenqwelomoya bazihlawulela ngokwabo inqwelomoya, okanye ngaba igqunywa ngumqeshi okanye umntu wesithathu."
Ezinye izinto abaphandi abazikhankanyileyo zibandakanya ukuba ngaba umhambi wayephambi kwesantya okanye usemva kakhulu kwisantya sokufikelela kwimo ephezulu, nokuba isikhululo seenqwelomoya sasekhaya sabahambi yayilihabhu yenqwelo moya. Kwiimeko apho abahambi bebengekho kwisantya ukuze bafikelele kwiwonga eliphezulu, bekunqabile ukuba batshintshe ukubhukisha ukufumana amanqaku. Kwangaxeshanye, amanqaku-amalungu kunokwenzeka ukuba akhethe imali ephezulu kwaye afumane amanqaku ukuba isikhululo seenqwelomoya sasekhaya sikwangumbindi wenkampani yenqwelomoya exhasa inkqubo yamanqaku.
"Sifumene ukuba xa abahambi besondele kwisantya esijoliswe kuyo samanqaku, banokuthi babhukishe kunye ne-airline kwiindlela apho i-airline inesibheno esisezantsi kunabo bakhuphisana nabo," batsho abaphandi. "Amalungu enkqubo yokunyaniseka, xa ayekufutshane nesantya ekujoliswe kuso, ngokomndilili abonise ukonyuka kwexabiso elihlawulweyo ngeepesenti ezisi-8, xa kuthelekiswa nabanye abathatha inqwelomoya efanayo."
Ababhali bophononongo bafumanise ukuba xa amalungu enkqubo yamanqaku ehambela ezolonwabo, ukuziphatha kwawo kwatshintsha.
"Ngaphezu kwesinye kwisithathu sokunyuka okuqhelekileyo komthengi okulungeleyo ukuhlawula kwindawo yokuthengisa kunokubalelwa kwiimeko zokubhukisha apho umthengi engenakukwazi ukuthwala iindleko zetikiti," bongezelela abaphandi. "Ukuba abahambi bekufuneka bahlawule epokothweni, uqikelelo lwethu lucebisa ukuba iinkampani zinokugcina umyinge wesi-7 ekhulwini seendleko zokuhamba."
INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- “Ngaphezu kwesinye esithathwini sokunyuka okukonke kumthengi oqhelekileyo wokuvuma ukuhlawula kwindawo yentengiso kunokunxulunyaniswa neemeko zokubhukisha apho umthengi engenakukwazi ukuthwala iindleko zetikiti,” bongezelela abaphandi.
- “Siye safumanisa ukuba amalungu enkqubo ebhabhayo akufutshane afikelela 'kwisimo esiphakamileyo' kokukhona ekwazi ukukhetha inqwelo-moya nokuba kubiza kakhulu kunenqwelo-moya yomntu okhuphisana naye,” batsho abaphandi.
- Kwangaxeshanye, amanqaku-amalungu kunokwenzeka ukuba akhethe amaxabiso aphezulu kwaye afumane amanqaku ukuba isikhululo seenqwelomoya sasekhaya sikwangumbindi wenkampani yenqwelomoya exhasa inkqubo yamanqaku.
