With the ETS gone, the work has just started he war of words and threats is finally over; rather, the fighting has, at least, been delayed for a little bit. In the battle over the European Union’s emissions trading scheme, EU Climate Commissioner Con- nie Hedegaard saw that it was the EU versus the world and graciously acquiesced to the rest of the industry’s wishes. She stood resolute for Ta while, but ideas, which some would call misguided, will only go so far — espe- Jon Ross cially if nobody backs you up. Editor Yes, the EU emissions trading scheme has been put on hold for a year. This can be seen as a victory for the carriers and governments who came out against the scheme, calling it a tax and railing against the supposed impingement of sovereignty. Another way to look at it? The EU really wants what’s best for the environment and was simply trying to push things along; when commissioners got the attention of the world, they backed down. The U.S. government hasn’t backed down, though. A day after the EU pulled their aviation tax, the House of Representatives passed what is known as the anti-ETS bill, effectively banning U.S. carriers from flying to Europe if they had to pay the ETS. That all seems to be a bit of a moot point, passing a bill outlaw- ing a provision that has all but disappeared, but officials explained that the bill still sends a message. That message — “don’t bring this scheme back to life” — has been echoed by interested aviation parties around the world. Now that the EU’s plan is temporarily dead, what’s next? Well, the EU has kicked the ball into ICAO’s court, but will that massive international body be able to come up with a streamlined, carbon-emissions-limiting plan that suits the EU’s fancy? The world has been told that the EU commissioners are simply stopping the clock on the ETS and that it will be brought back in a year if ICAO hasn’t presented a workable solution, so as of now, that clock is ticking. All this fuss over the ETS began in earnest two years ago, with carriers fret- ting the initial commencement of the aviation section of the law, which began Jan. 1, 2012. (Carriers didn’t have to buy carbon-emissions credits for that first year.) Now that the calendar is turning to 2013, I have to wonder if we’ll be right back at square one this time next year. Let us hope that, as 2013 becomes 2014, we have a simple, easy proposition by ICAO that suits the needs of the market- place while also tamping down carbon emissions.

ighteen months after acquiring a 35-percent stake in Luxembourg-based Cargolux, Qatar Airways has announced its intention to pull out of the deal.

In related news, Albert Wildgen has announced that he will step down as chairman of Cargolux’s board of directors on November 30 after a 14-month term.

Association of Asia Pacific Airlines statistics further revealed that Asia- Pacific cargo carriers matched capacity and demand in September fairly well; they offered 4.3-percent less freight space than in September 2011. AAPA Director General Andrew Herdman said he’s impressed by these results. “For air cargo markets, after experiencing a 3.9-per- cent, year-on-year, volume decline for the Cathay Pacific shifts first nine months of the year, September was a relatively good month, only margin- freighters ally below last year’s figure.” Also strong in September was Asia- Pacific carriers’ freight load factors, which n September, the trajectory of freighters, namely its 747-400BCFs. rose 2.6 percent, year-over-year, to 66.6 cargo at Cathay Pacific finally When fuel prices were lower, there percent.

A few years back, the idea of turning between Ireland and the USA some of these 747-400s into all-cargo configurations may have looked ap- pealing, but the downturn has all but buried such a scenario. “There is no sense in retaining any -400 for con- version. It would take a dramatic fall in the fuel price to make that look vi- able,” Rhodes commented. “At the moment, it is almost impos- sible to make a convincing business case for an airline board to invest in freighters altogether,” he continued. Still, there is no doubt that Cathay will continue to operate freighters, and that it will own them outright. In the present conditions, the ACMI model may become more attractive than ever before, but Cathay prefers to own its aircraft and depreciate them over the years, he said. “That does not mean that if you haven’t got enough freighters and there is an upturn in the market, you could not lease cargo aircraft to fill a gap in the market,” Rhodes commented.

Special Advertising Feature Time is critical for rush cargo

Scheduled freight, whether deferred or time-definite, takes on rush status when weather delays or other events ensue. Equipment failure, unexpected demand or other unforeseen situations put the “time critical” in cargo. As these providers illustrate, the ability to consistently deliver urgent freight requires agility and responsiveness.

Rise of regional rush service

Best practices in rush freight today are all about raw perfor- mance and execution, says Frank DiMaria, senior vice president of sales and marketing at AirNet Cargo Charter Services, Inc. The Columbus, Ohio-based air express carrier has also refocused its business to meet growing demand for regional, time-critical sched- uled service and charters, moving away from long haul. “People don’t want to age their freight with overnight services,” DiMaria says. “We’re seeing businesses move toward the higher end of just- in-time transportation because companies don’t have the luxury of maintaining big inventories anymore.” AirNet taps into its fleet of 130 fixed-wing aircraft — with pay- loads ranging from 900 pounds to 3,500 pounds — to offer nearly 200 flights per day to 100 major markets in North America. Gov- ernment agencies, financial institutions, medical labs, diagnostic firms, freight forwarders and couriers are among the company’s steady customers. These customers know the benefits of bypassing the scheduled airlines — later cut-off times and earlier deliveries. The express carrier’s Scheduled Small Package Delivery (SPD) service provides economical air option for 200-400 mile segments that bypass the perils of ground delivery such as road construction and weather delays. “SPD service is a like a co-op charter,” DiMaria says, noting pick-ups and deliveries schedules are tailored to ac- commodate anchor customers who pay the majority of costs. Ad- ditional customers are invited on the flight so revenues are shared. “It’s a win-win for customers needing a reliable regional supply chain,” DiMaria says. AirNet still offers its dedicated cargo charter services for on- demand charters using its own aircraft, which are strategically po-
