Be sure the document each team member submits includes the following:

• Your team number, the airline name, and the names of all team members.
• Your airline's mission or philosophy.
• A recap of your airline's status and whether the results from previous periods were as you intended.
• The decisions your team made in Periods 5 and 6.
• A rationale for each decision that details why the decisions were made and what you hope to accomplish.
• References to at least two professional or industry-related resources that support your rationales. Be sure you follow APA guidelines for references and citations.
