Case summary:

Person DN would like to set up a blue ocean strategy which would use value-innovation to combine cost-leadership and differentiation activities. In 1993, Company M is the lowest-fare airline that has many cost-saving practices, which was purchased by Company S.

The challenges incurred were profit and market share. Hence, Company J could not able to sustain a blue ocean strategy.
