Sobel’s test is also used to test the mediating role of customer engagement. The findings of this study indicate while customer perceived value consistently influences loyalty, customer engagement is also proven to be an antecedent of loyalty. Furthermore, customer engagement is also proven to play a mediating role which strengthens the relationship between perceived value and loyalty. The results of the empirical analysis is supported by previous studies that suggest customer engagement is a new construct that has an important role to play in enhancing passenger loyalty.
