In this BCG case interview, ex-BCG Principal and case coach Tauseef Charanya leads a live, candidate-led walkthrough of an airline profitability case: should the client switch to credit-card-only in-flight payments?

Follow along as Bao works through clarifying questions, a customized profitability framework, structured math, and a clear final recommendation — plus hear Tauseef’s expert coaching on what “good” looks like at BCG.

Learn how to:

  • Build a tailored framework under pressure
  • Navigate candidate-led case flow with confidence
  • Turn math, exhibits, and insights into a strong “so what”
