Airline communication message strategies during crisis

초록/요약

Purpose: This study aims to assess how airline companies can frame their message strategies given the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Design/methodology/approach: Message forms used in empirical tests included message framings, regulatory focuses and benefit types. A total of 450 participants were recruited through an online survey. Findings: Promotion-focused behavioral intention was more effective when personal economic benefit was negatively framed. However, prevention-focused behavioral intention was more effective where social benefit was positively framed. The results were moderated by personal traits such as the level of perceived COVID-19 threat. Originality/value: The findings of this study can help create new communication strategies during risky or critical situations. © 2023, Emerald Publishing Limited.
