My own opinion
-Partner with some large businesses a.k.a investors (like promise them to advertise their products onboard the plane)
-Start on a hub that is industrialized, worthy airport and clean
-Start buying regional jets first
-Make a domestic route first before expanding to the international market
-Comfort of the passengers should be the priority alongside with safety
-Nice and excellent food
-Hire or train the experienced flight attendants, pilot, ground crews, check-in staffs etc. (MAKE THEM HUMBLE TO THE PASSENGERS)
-Start to plan or buy some 320's or a 737's
-If possible do not lease some of the aircrafts, buy your OWN
-Maintenance should be well
-Make some codeshare agreements and partners
-On-time schedule flights
-Clean cabins are always observed
-Start advertising your airline
-Watch it bloom, and make sure that your aircraft are always up to date and not junk
-If you have large profits you can install some IFE's, you can install it on first to business class then economy, if you are budgeting.
I FORGOT:
-Partner with some local and international hotels, ship companies, bus companies and etc. (local and international), this is to make passengers more easy to transfer to their desired destination after they ride a plane (promise them to advertise them so you can have a discount ;) )
-Lounge should be planned (and good as well)

As an airline industry veteran, I actually helped start a new airline in Asia beginning in 1995. My primary job as EVP was to acquire aircraft, supervise airframe production, arrange delivery, train crews, and help organize the overall company. After five years and spending over a quarter of a billion dollars, the once wealthy Asian chairman finally called it quits!

I was recommended to the chairman who was a novice in the aviation industry by top officials at Douglas Aircraft, now Boeing. Following 2 airline bankruptcies, I am convinced that the airline industry is a great business but you have to have exceptional routes, fantastic, talented people, whom you can trust, and one big potful of money to make your dream alive, survive and most importantly thrive. With the Asian line, the chairman wanted to grow the company too fast, and that was his ultimate downfall. Sadly, he is now an "unbillionaire".

Judging from airline industry history, very few privately-owned legacy carriers have survived in the long term. These include American Airlines, Delta, and United. Nationally-owned airlines survive much better as they can always count on state subsidies.

Magnificent episode and idea mate! I am studying Aviation Management at the moment at University, and your facts were spot on. Airline Management is a focus on where I want to go in the future, so I am pumped for the rest of the series!

Can tell you worked really hard to make this. I enjoy the hypothetical part of “starting your own airline” and I’m excited to see where you take this series. Very creative and very interesting. I’m sure as we get into the series with topics such as destination and fleet selection, it’ll make for interesting debates in your comments. Great work!
