The fundamental changes in ownership also led to a number of major challenges. Existing structures had to be completely reorganised, a task which Unique (Flughafen Zürich AG) successfully mastered. We were able to extract all the airside functions and infrastructures that are essential for airport business from the operations previously controlled by SAirGroup and now under new ownership, and bring them under our own control.This means that we have eliminated all inter- connections with and dependencies on external providers in the area of airside operations. We can therefore look back on a period of extremely intensive activity. But we still have a very busy time ahead of us, partly due to the step-by-step hand-over of components associated with expansion stage 5, but also in view of the political uncertainties throughout the world and their impacts on international civil aviation, and the ongoing debate on the home front concerning the function, size and operation of Zurich Airport.

  • Bachelor's Thesis Airline Consolidation in Europe Small
    Bachelor’s Thesis Airline Consolidation in Europe Small European Airlines’ Chances of Survival Amid Industry Consolidation, and the Proactive M&A Auction as a Strategic Way Forward ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences School of Management and Law International Management David L. Egli Matriculation Number: 15540339 Talwiesentrasse 22, 8404 Winterthur [email protected] Submitted to Dr. Markus Braun Winterthur, 24 May 2018 Management Summary The European airline industry is experiencing a trend towards consolidation, and many carriers are contesting in a highly competitive environment. From 2011 – 2015, the number of scheduled airlines operating within Europe declined by over 70, and the growing influence of large players such as the Lufthansa Group or the IAG Holding challenges small airlines in their economic viability. Consequently, small firms must find new strategic solutions to secure their continuing existence. The aim of this study was to clarify the chances of survival for small airlines, and if selling the company proactively through an M&A auction could be a beneficial solution to the consolidation trend. Therein, the focus lies in maximizing the transaction price and ensuring the continuity of the brand. Additionally, the study intended to identify key criteria and stumbling blocks for small airlines considering to follow such a strategy. To facilitate the understanding of airline consolidation, this study introduced the differences between the US and the European markets. Literature review and expert interviews were used to conduct a trend and market analysis. To reveal key strengths, the collected data also served in the evaluation of other strategic tools such as the SWOT and value chain analysis.

Heute sitzen sie im Cockpit eines Gross- raumflugzeuges, am Helikoptersteuer, pilotieren ein Militärflugzeug, sind im Flugtaxi oder im Se- gelflugzeug unterwegs, arbeiten als Flugzeugmechaniker, Flugverkehrsleiter, sitzen im Manager- sessel eines Aviatikunternehmens, umkreisen die Erde oder haben sich das Fliegen ganz einfach zur Passion gemacht. Wussten Sie, dass viele Pilotinnen und Piloten ihre ersten Flughüpfer auf der Gras- bzw. Betonpiste des Berner Flughafens absolviert haben? Die sogenannte General Aviation, die Allgemeine Luftfahrt, ist die Wiege der Fliegerei und das Nach- wuchsreservoir par excellence.

    Büro für Flugunfalluntersuchungen BFU Bureau d’enquête sur les accidents d’aviation BEAA Ufficio d’inchiesta sugli infortuni aeronautici UIIA Uffizi d'inquisiziun per accidents d'aviatica UIAA Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau AAIB Final Report No. 1953 by the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau concerning the incident to the Boeing 767-300 aircraft, HB-ISE operated by Belair Airlines under flight number BHP 902 on 21 February 2006 at Zurich Airport Bundeshaus Nord, CH-3003 Berne Final Report BHP 902 HB-ISE Ursachen Der Vorfall ist darauf zurückzuführen, dass technische Störungen am Boden dazu führten, dass auf dem Flughafen Zürich bei den herrschenden Wetterbedingungen eine Landung nicht mehr erlaubt war. Dies hatte zur Folge, dass die Flugbesatzung aufgrund des noch zur Ver- fügung stehenden Treibstoffes einen Anflug und eine Landung nach low visibility procedures durchführte, obwohl der Betrieb der Piste 16 auf CAT I beschränkt war. Zum Vorfall beigetragen hat der Umstand, dass die Information nicht übermittelt wurde, dass die Piste 14 für Anflüge und Landungen nach CAT III nicht zur Verfügung stand. Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau Page 2 of 37 Final Report BHP 902 HB-ISE General information on this report This report contains the AAIB’s conclusions on the circumstances and causes of the incident which is the subject of the investigation. In accordance with Annex 13 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation of 7 December 1944 and article 24 of the Federal Air Navigation Law, the sole purpose of the investigation of an aircraft accident or serious incident is to prevent future accidents or serious incidents. The legal assessment of accident/incident causes and circumstances is expressly no concern of the accident investigation.
