dc.description.abstract	Deregulation of the South African Low Cost Airline lowered entry barriers which resulted in 11 airlines entering the market between 1990 and 2018 but only 6 are still operating. Using a literature and qualitative method, the study found that there are key success factors that actors in the industry have to adhere to enhance their survival. These include having support from a full service parent airline, modern fleet and tapping into the market of those who normally would not fly, among many others. The key success factors seem to have been applied by those that succeeded in the industry.
