Abstract

The Effect of Brand Experience on Brand Loyalty on Garuda Indonesia Airline Customers: The aviation market in Indonesia is increasingly competitive with the increasing number of commercial airlines operating. For consumers, this is an advantage because of the increasingly varied choices of airlines. Meanwhile, for the airline, this condition requires the company to provide better experience and service to maintain consumer loyalty to dominate the market. Airlines such as Garuda Indonesia need to consider the brand experience to retain consumers. This study aimed to test the direct effect of brand experience to brand loyalty and service quality as moderation to overcome the problem of differences in the results of empirical studies. The research method used was quantitative. The determination of the research sample used a purposive sampling method. The online questionnaire was distributed directly to the respondents and a number of 200 respondents submitted complete answers. The Structural Equation Modeling Warp Partial Least Square 6.0 (SEM Warp PLS) analysis tool was chosen to test the measurement model (validity and reliability) and the structural model (hypothesis testing). The results of the study showed that brand experience could drive an increase in brand loyalty by 19%. Furthermore, service quality was proven to act as moderation on the effect of brand experience on brand loyalty.
