Alaska Airlines strategy is to develop and implement technology which provides them with the competitive advantage over its competitors. Key issues for them to decide are:
Will innovative uses of technology provide Alaska Airlines the competitive edge within the industry in the future?
Which processes for Alaska’s system could be completely automated?

IMAGE project is helping Alaska Airlines with customer service experience. Its user friendly interface is helping employees to provide better customer service. It can be concluded that other airlines will follow suit with this technology.
E-tickets and self service check-ins are helping to reduce the cost of employees.
Online ticketing through Alaskaair.com will reduce the cost of ticket issuance as more passengers use the website.
As more and more passengers get used to the idea of using kiosk, self check-in, and online purchasing, more employees will be available for providing better customer service and enhance the experience.
Creating “Airport of the Future Team” will help innovate and incorporate new ideas and technology into the current system. This will lead to future technology initiatives.
