Gerasimov AIR TRANSPORT IN RUSSIA AND ITS IMPACT ON THE ECONOMY The study aims to collect and analyse statistics of Russian air transport, show the in- fluence of air transport on the national economy over the period from 2007 to 2016, compare the sector’s role in Russia with the one in other countries. The study reveals the significance of air transport for Russian economy by comparing airlines’ and air- ports’ monetary output to the gross domestic product. On the basis of the research, the policies in the aviation sector can be adjusted by government authorities. Ключевые слова: Russia, aviation, GDP, economic impact, air transport, statistics. Introduction According to Air Transport Action Group, the air transport industry supports 62.7 million jobs globally and aviation’s total global economic impact is $2.7 trillion (approximately 3.5% of the Gross World Product) [1]. Aviation transported 4 billion passengers in 2017, which is more than a half of world population, according to the International Civil Aviation Organization [2]. It makes the industry one of the most important ones in the world. It has a consid- erable effect on national economies by providing a huge number of employment opportunities both directly and indirectly in such spheres as tourism, retail, manufacturing, agriculture, and so on. Air transport is a driving force behind economic connection between different regions because it may entail economic, political, and social effects.

RMIT University, 2. STMT Trisakti. corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: This research is exploring the change of domestic air travel market demand in Indonesia prior and post deregulation. Changes on policies in Indonesian aviation were contributed to the present day market. This historical overview will examine the ‘oligopoly policy’ with only five airlines and the deregulation process that began in 1999. The research then analyses the demand for domestic air travel. Exponential Moving Average Growth were using to analysing data to forecasting the number of passenger from year 2007 to 2015 in yearly basis. Demand is then analysed on three separate airline routes in Indonesia they are Jakarta-Medan, Jakarta-Surabaya, and Jakarta-Pontianak. Keywords: Demand, Domestic Air Travel, Deregulation, Passeneger, Indonesia. Introduction Deregulation in Indonesia start when governments remove restrictions on airlines business Indonesia to encourage the efficient, competitive and consumer oriented marketplace in Indonesian airline industry (Williams, 1993). Secretary General of the Ministry of Communications Anwar Suprijadi said the decision to deregulate was taken in a bid to promote fair competition in domestic airline services, (“Govt insists on licensing more airlines,” 1999). And resulting numbers of new Indonesian airlines emerged predominantly mostly in the cut-fare sector including Lion Air; Indonesia’s Air Asia, former Adam Air, former Batavia Air and Sriwijaya Air, radically changing the nature of the airline business in Indonesia with present of low cost carrier.

  • Vol-5, Issue 2
    International Journal of Management Sciences and Business Research, Feb-2016 ISSN (2226-8235) Vol-5, Issue 2 Analysis on the Factors Causing Airlines Bankruptcy: Cases in Indonesia Author’s Details: (1)Suharto Abdul Majid-Faculty of Economic and Business, Padjadjaran University, Bandung, Indonesia (2) Sucherly - Faculty of Economic and Business, Padjadjaran University, Bandung, Indonesia (3) Umi Kaltum- Faculty of Economic and Business, Padjadjaran University, Bandung, Indonesia Abstract the high growth of national aviation services after the aviation deregulation in 2000 has given a positive impact on the increase of national economic activities, especially in tour and trade. In the same time, however, it negatively impacts the aviation business itself, making many airline companies stop their operation and then go to bankruptcy. The aim of this research is to analyze the factors causing bankruptcy to some national airline companies in Indonesia after the aviation deregulation in the periods of 2001-2010 and 2011-2015. It is an exploratory research with a qualitative descriptive approach emphasizing on evaluating the factors causing bankruptcy to a number of domestic airlines in Indonesia. The method of data collection is an interview with the format of focus group discussion (FGD), while the data analysis uses factor analysis method. The results of this research show that there are two main factors that cause bankruptcy to a number of domestic airlines in Indonesia. They are both internal and external factors of the companies. Key words: Airline companies bankruptcy, internal factors, and external factors. INTRODUCTION Since the implementation of the national aviation deregulation policy in 2000, the growth of aviation business in Indonesia increases rapidly.

  • Tenth Session of the Statistics Division
    STA/10-WP/6 International Civil Aviation Organization 2/10/09 WORKING PAPER TENTH SESSION OF THE STATISTICS DIVISION Montréal, 23 to 27 November 2009 Agenda Item 1: Civil aviation statistics — ICAO classification and definition REVIEW OF DEFINITIONS OF DOMESTIC AND CABOTAGE AIR SERVICES (Presented by the Secretariat) SUMMARY Currently, ICAO uses two different definitions to identify the traffic of domestic flight sectors of international flights; one used by the Statistics Programme, based on the nature of a flight stage, and the other, used for the economic studies on air transport, based on the origin and final destination of a flight (with one or more flight stages). Both definitions have their shortcomings and may affect traffic forecasts produced by ICAO for domestic operations. A similar situation arises with the current inclusion of cabotage services under international operations. After reviewing these issues, the Fourteenth Meeting of the Statistics Panel (STAP/14) agreed to recommend that no changes be made to the current definitions and instructions. Action by the division is in paragraph 5. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 In its activities in the field of air transport economics and statistics, ICAO is currently using two different definitions to identify the domestic services of an air carrier. The first one used by the Statistics Programme has been reaffirmed and clarified during Ninth Meeting of the Statistics Division (STA/9) and it is the one currently shown in the Air Transport Reporting Forms. The second one is being used by the Secretariat in the studies on international airline operating economics which have been carried out since 1976 and in pursuance of Assembly Resolution A36-15, Appendix G (reproduced in Appendix A).
