Perda de Receita por Abandono de Clientes - Churn Causado por Má Gestão de IROP

3 verified sources

Definition

Post-delay customer dissatisfaction drives churn when: (1) compensation claims are disputed or delayed (>30 days), (2) passengers do not receive written explanations for delays >1h, (3) refunds are processed slowly (manual approval chains), (4) communication gaps during incident. High-frequency business travelers (1–4 trips/month) have elasticity of brand loyalty; one poor IROP experience often triggers switch to competitor. Lost lifetime customer value: R$5,000–15,000 per high-value customer.

Key Findings

  • Financial Impact: Mid-size airline with 200,000 annual passengers: ~5% experience >2h delay (~10,000 passengers). Estimated churn rate from inadequate handling: 3–8% of subsequent bookings (~300–800 repeat bookings lost). Lost revenue per lost booking: R$500–1,500. Annual revenue loss: R$150,000–R$1,200,000. High-value segments (business/frequent flyer): churn rate 8–15%, lifetime value loss R$50,000–75,000/customer = R$500,000–R$2,000,000 for 10–20 high-value defections/year.
  • Frequency: Monthly; cumulative effect over 6–12 months becomes visible in repeat booking metrics
  • Root Cause: No proactive post-delay communication protocol; long claim processing timelines (>30 days); lack of real-time passenger satisfaction tracking; no differentiated service recovery for frequent flyers

Why This Matters

The Pitch: Brazilian airlines lose 3–8% of repeat bookings annually due to inadequate IROP compensation and communication. Automated, transparent compensation (within 48 hours) + proactive passenger communication reduces churn by 40–60%, recovering R$2,000–5,000 annual lifetime value per passenger.

Custos de Indenização por Atraso de Voo - Dano Moral Obrigatório

R$3,000–R$15,000 per passenger per delay event ≥4 hours. For a medium-sized airline with 5 significant delay events/month (~50 affected passengers/month), potential annual exposure: R$900,000–R$9,000,000

Custos de Assistência Material Obrigatória - Refeições, Hospedagem e Translado

Estimated R$150–300 per passenger for 2–4h delays (meal); R$400–800 per passenger for 4h+ delays (meal + accommodation 1 night + transport). For 100 passengers/month in >2h delays: R$15,000–30,000/month = R$180,000–360,000 annually. Typical waste from duplicate/unnecessary claims: 15–25% = R$27,000–90,000/year

Multas ANAC e Procon por Não Cumprimento de Obrigações de Assistência e Indenização

Estimated R$50,000–R$500,000 per ANAC enforcement action. For a mid-size airline: 2–4 enforcement actions/year = R$100,000–R$2,000,000 in fines annually. Legal defense costs: R$50,000–150,000 per contested claim (litigation). Accumulated contingent liability (5-year statute of limitations): 6–12 months of unresolved claims = R$500,000–R$3,000,000

Contingência Fiscal e Contábil - Incerteza de Passivo por Decisão STF Pendente

Contingent liability range: R$50,000,000–R$500,000,000 for large carriers (LATAM, Gol, Azul) based on 6–24 months of unresolved delay claims (10,000–100,000 claims × R$5,000–10,000 average exposure). For mid-size carrier: R$10,000,000–50,000,000. Balance-sheet impact if CDC ruling prevails: immediate provision of 50–100% of contingent amount; potential Q1/Q2 earnings impact R$5,000,000–50,000,000.

Falhas em Inspeção de Manutenção de Aeronaves e Revogação de Certificado

R$570,400 in fines; plus total business cessation (Air Operator Certificate permanent revocation)

Perda de Direitos de Slot por Não Conformidade com Regra 80/20

LOGIC estimate: Loss of one daily slot = ~4 rotations/day lost = ~1,460 flights/year = R$ 2.5–5 million annually per lost slot (based on typical R$ 1,700–3,400 revenue per flight). Larger carriers risk multiple slots: Azul's Congonhas expansion to 86 daily slots suggests competition for scarce inventory.
