3. Employees Communication and Responsiveness:

• A basic problem JetBlue’s internal communication system which led to lower quality in employee responsiveness.

The ice storm had left a large portion of the airline’s while 11,000 pilots and flight attendants far from where they needed to be to operate the planes.

And JetBlue lacked the trained staff that was needed to find them and tell them where to go. It was the first time in the company’s history that they had so many people out of position.

• Undependable the reservation system.

The system was so overwhelmed that customers were unable to get through to human agents to check on a flight.

Miscellaneous. • Save it into database. • Employee use it as a tool kit for problem solving

guidance. • If necessary, it can be use as a material to define a

new SOP.




• Build a team/division who in charge of Customer Recovery Intelligence:

- Analyze why customer left. Who they are? Are they frequent flyer? - Research the problem caused? Is it majority? - Consider they into the pyramid of service recovery

progression. If they are worth, What can we do to take them back?

* Offer some special programs, i.e: holiday packet, family discount, hotel experience. * Discount for specific destination

• “Happy Complain Culture”. • Company should not consider complain as a poser, instead

manage it properly as service recovery. • Train employees intense and gradually. Benchmark from

others airlines. • Employees medical checkup gradually. • Management conduct plane inspection. • Empowering employees. Gives them authority to solve

problem on the spot in order to take care customer satisfaction.


Summary

• Service Recovery is a process to analyzing what happened and changing the routines in order to recover and fix failure.

• It is important, since a company spend five times as much to attract a new customer as to keep a dissatisfied one.

• Failure resolutions and Customer satisfaction after recovery has a positive on loyalty intentions.

The Pyramid of Service Recovery Progression

• Stage 1, Moribund. There is no complaint handling. Angry customers are ignored.

• Stage 2: Reactive. Customer complaints are heard, and a response is made. But it's a haphazard process with no defined goals for the response and no one owning this business process.

• Stage 3: Active Listening. At this stage, the response to issues voiced by customers is structured. Specific people have the responsibility to respond to complaints and guidelines are in place for the response. However, it is still reactive.

• Stage 4. Solicitous. The critical change from Stage 3 to 4 is the move from reactive to proactive solicitation of customers with issues. The reason this is so important is that most customers don't bother to complain. The solicitous role is accomplished by encouraging customer to voice their complaints

• Stage 5: Infused. The pinnacle of Service Recovery Practices is achieved when the complaint identification merges with business process improvement or six sigma programs to support root cause identification and resolution.
