The purpose of this research tries to study the relationship between customer satisfaction and service quality in terms of the demographic variables by applying the Kano model. The result found that staff performance is one critical issue to consider in order to enhance quality of service and subsequently the customer satisfaction will be improved. In addition, the results found quite significant different factors concerned by female and male respondents, for example female concerns more on safety and flight schedule whilst male concerns more on price and online booking system. Mature respondents concerns more on price and schedule but the youngsters do not.
