How can Airlines Maximize the Passenger Load Factor?

So how can Customer Data Platforms help Airlines?

With a CDP, Airlines can target customers who are most likely to book a flight, focusing on flights with a low passenger load factor.

A CDP collects customer data from various sources, giving marketers a comprehensive view of their customers and their behavior. When combined with a load factor feed, they can craft personalized offers for the right person at the right time.
  
For example, customers that show interest in a specific destination can be retargeted with offers in the chosen date range to the same destination, but emphasizing flights with a lower load factor to boost profitability on that route.
 
This targeted approach can increase the likelihood that a customer will book the suggested flight, ultimately raising the load factor and profitability.
