作者:

Highlights:

• The study examines the effects of SERVPERF on customer satisfaction and loyalty.

• A comparison between full service and low cost carriers is conducted.

• A predictive analytic approach via SEM–artificial-neural-networks is engaged.

• Multiple group analysis is used to assess the group invariance.

• 63.1% and 55.6% of variance in customer satisfaction and loyalty are explained.
