What is the difference between low-cost airlines and traditional airlines?

1, China's low-cost airline baggage allowance: the weight of carry-on baggage does not exceed 10kg and the volume does not exceed 20*30*40cm

2, punctuality: also known as the on-time rate, the flight normal rate, refers to the air passenger transport sector in the implementation of the transport plan, the actual departure time of the flights with the planned time of departure of the flights of the flights are more consistent with the number of flights (i.e., the normal flights) and the ratio of the number of flights, characterizing the carrier's transport efficiency and quality of transport. The ratio of the number of flights, characterizing the carrier's transportation efficiency and quality of transportation, punctuality is more often used to measure the operational efficiency of airlines and quality of service

3, the average delay rate: the average value of flight delays, punctuality rate = 100% - delay rate. The average delay to take off to prevail, that is, each time (actual take-off time - planned take-off time) of the score for the average

Difference between low-cost airlines and general aviation:

Baggage fees. General airlines will have free kilograms of checked baggage, as long as you bring the size of the baggage specifications in the amount of the limit can be directly in the check-in office for check-in, the general airline check-in baggage limit of 20 kilograms, but also hand-carried 5 kilograms. And according to what I know: Spring Airlines luggage kilograms refers to hand-carried plus checked baggage kilograms less than or equal to 15 kilograms, Western Airlines is limited to 5 kilograms of baggage, such as exceeding the kilograms, you need to buy a baggage ticket.

Dining. General airlines after boarding stable flight, according to the meal time to provide the appropriate meal, you can always provide drinks. Low-fare airlines do not provide free meals to passengers, and passengers can purchase them separately if needed.

Service. In addition to meals, low-fare airlines do not provide passengers with single-use headphones, blankets or other items needed by passengers to minimize their cost output. Secondly, the low cost airlines have a strict refund and change procedure, in case of refund, there is very little left, and to change the ticket, you need to pay a certain amount of money. On the other hand, general airlines uphold the principle that the customer is God, not only the thoughtful distribution of food and beverage, when you need blankets and other services, will always arrive and solve the problem, the service is very good.

Hardware. General aviation model more have big passenger type, can be divided into economy class, first class, business class, etc., first class and business class rows spacing is large, convenient activities. And low-cost airlines are generally more small airplanes, the model is also two, the row spacing is small. People sitting for a long time is not too comfortable.

Expanded information:

Low-cost airlines include Southwest Airlines, Asia Airlines, Spring Airlines and Southeast Asian budget airlines and other airlines. They mainly operate short-haul routes with high passenger traffic, mostly take off and land at secondary airports, and sometimes do not provide additional services such as free meals to reduce some unnecessary expenses. Due to the significant reduction in operating costs, the fares of low-cost airlines are generally lower than those of mainstream airlines, and travelers refer to them as "low-cost airlines". Due to the fierce competition in the modern aviation industry, the self-service component of the strong aviation services and easy and fast check-in procedures, so that the low-cost airline route services to achieve the air traffic bus.
