Abstract

Günümüzde tüketiciler ürün veya marka tercihi yaparken ürünün özelliklerinin yanı sıra marka, ambalaj, tasarım gibi deneyimlerini de göz önünde bulundurmaktadırlar. Deneyim marka sadakati ve tatmin oluşturmada önemli bir değişkendir. Temeli deneyimlere dayalı olan bir başka değişken de marka aşkıdır. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmanın temel amacı tüketicilerin marka deneyimi, marka aşkı, tatmin ve marka sadakati arasındaki ilişkileri belirlemektir. Bu amaçla havayolları seyahati deneyimi olan tüketiciler üzerinde bir anket yapılmış ve elde edilen 351 kişilik örnekleme tanımlayıcı istatistikler, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ve yol analizi uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde SPSS21 VE Lisrel 8.7 programları kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada tüketicilerin havayolu uçuş hizmeti deneyimlerine ilişkin marka deneyimi ile marka sevgisi ve müşteri memnuniyeti arasında pozitif ve anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu, benzer şekilde aynı ilişkinin marka sevgisi ile müşteri memnuniyeti ve marka sadakati arasında olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
