Opening Statement, Lynne Embleton, CEO, Aer Lingus
Supplemental Aer Lingus Opening Statement to Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications Committee – 22nd June 2021 Introduction Thank you for the opportunity to engage - once again - with the Transport and Communications committee. I will assume you have read the Aer Lingus opening statement which was originally due to be delivered on 2nd June. On this basis I won’t read that statement but everything in it still stands. I would however like to briefly supplement it to highlight some specific issues that need to be addressed urgently. Stobart Stobart Air informed Aer Lingus on 11th June that they were ceasing to trade with immediate effect resulting in the cancellation of all Aer Lingus Regional flights operated by Stobart Air. Stobart attributed this decision to the continuing impact of the pandemic which has resulted in almost no flying since March 2020. Aer Lingus stepped in immediately to operate six routes until at least the end of August and arranged for BA City Flyer to operate four of the routes. The provision of this replacement schedule has ensured that all impacted customers due to travel in the immediate term were offered alternative travel arrangements. Aer Lingus also confirmed that we are ready to operate the Dublin / Kerry route, subject to an appropriate PSO arrangement being put in place and that we are actively exploring options that would enable the provision of a Dublin / Donegal service. Aer Lingus and other key stakeholders in the aviation sector have consistently warned that Ireland’s 15-month long implementation of the most restrictive travel policies in Europe without sector specific supports being provided, represented a critical risk to aviation jobs and to connectivity. -

Irish Aer Arann Renews Confidence in ATR Maintenance
Toulouse, 30 January 2014 Irish Aer Arann renews confidence in ATR maintenance Irish airline Aer Arann, operating regional air routes for Aer Lingus Regional, and the European regional aircraft manufacturer ATR have agreed to extend its existing Global Maintenance Agreement (GMA) covering the airline’s fleet of eight ATR 72-600s and two ATR 72-500 aircraft for five more years. The original contract was signed in 2007 with the introduction of the first ATR 72-500. Since then ATR has enjoyed a long term strategic partnership with Aer Arann. The airline reiterated their confidence in 2012 by agreeing to introduce eight new generation ATR 72-600s, which deliveries started in June this year. The GMA covers the complete maintenance of the ATR aircraft and includes services such as repair and overhaul of LRUs (Line Replaceable Units), parts provision, propellers and airframe maintenance and landing gear overhaul. Aer Arann will benefit from diverse pool supplies offering logistical and operational support to ensure the smooth running of its repairs. “Aer Arann are delighted to extend our Global Maintenance Agreement with ATR. ATR continue to deliver a Service Quality product that matches our goal and targets. We recently welcomed our sixth new ATR aircraft which has enabled Aer Arann to further expand our regional offering and to support the addition of new routes and frequencies on existing routes. Following the purchase of eight new ATR aircraft, Aer Arann launched two new routes between Dublin - Newcastle and Shannon - Bristol, as well as increased frequencies to Aberdeen, Bristol, Cardiff and Glasgow from Dublin and Manchester and Birmingham from Cork and Shannon”, Seán Brogan, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Aer Arann, said. -

Aer Lingus Monthly Traffic Statistics
Aer Lingus Group plc ISE: EIL1 LSE: AERL Traffic Statistics – April 2011 Dublin & London, 5 May 2011: Aer Lingus Group plc (“Aer Lingus”), today announced traffic statistics for the month of April 2011. The year-on-year comparison of Aer Lingus’ booked passenger numbers in April 2011 is impacted by two events. In April 2010, seven days of Aer Lingus’ operations were impacted by the closure of Irish and UK airspace and parts of European airspace due to ash clouds resulting from the eruptions of a volcano in Eyjafjallajoekull, Iceland. In addition, Easter 2011 occurred in April in 2011 whereas in 2010 the Easter holiday period commenced in the last week of March. Aer Lingus’ total booked passenger numbers in April 2011 were 822,000, an increase of 19.3% compared to April 2010. Short haul booked passengers were 750,000, a 19.8% increase on April 2010 while long haul booked passengers in April 2011 were 72,000, a 14.3% increase on April 2010. Aer Lingus’ booked load factor in April 2011 decreased by 4.9 points on April 2010 to 70.9%. Short haul booked load factor was 71.9%, a decrease of 5.1 points on April 2010, with capacity increasing by 27.6% due to the impact of the ash clouds in April 2010. Short haul load factor in April 2010 was inflated by customers disrupted due to the ash cloud re-booking their flights multiple times. Flown short haul load factor in April 2011 was 70.1%, which represents a decrease of 1.7 points on flown short haul load factor in April 2010. -

Flybe on 20 March 2013
RYANAIR/AER LINGUS MERGER INQUIRY Summary of hearing with Flybe on 20 March 2013 Background 1. Flybe is based in the UK and operates two routes to Dublin Airport from Southampton and Exeter airports. 2. The Southampton to Dublin route serves mostly business passengers whilst the route between Exeter to Dublin serves more leisure passengers. 3. Flybe operates from Pier A in Terminal 1 at Dublin Airport. Mergers in the airline industry 4. Flybe said that there was a general desire for consolidation between European airlines. This was driven by the opportunity to realize efficiencies such as economies of scale at airports, reduction of overheads, increased fleet flexibility and the sharing of business models. Its acquisition of BA Connect, for example, had allowed it to substitute more efficient aircraft on to routes, reduce staff costs, and reduce duplication of maintenance, repair and overhaul facilities. 5. Typically the greatest synergies would be achieved through an acquisition and the least synergies derived from a small minority shareholding without a code-sharing arrangement. 6. The attractiveness of an airline as an acquisition target would depend on its scope for synergies. Relevant factors would include the airline’s costs, its business model, its fleet, its network (from the perspective of route complementarity) and its market presence. Poorer performing airlines could be more attractive because of the greater scope for synergies. Aer Lingus as an acquisition target 7. Flybe would expect airlines to consider Aer Lingus to be an attractive acquisition target, as it would allow a geographical extension for the potential acquirer and could offer the possibility of further cost efficiencies. -
Milan Linate (LIN) J Ownership and Organisational Structure the Airport
Competition between Airports and the Application of Sfare Aid Rules Volume H ~ Country Reports Italy Milan Linate (LIN) J Ownership and organisational structure The airport is part of Gruppo SEA (Milan Airports). Ownership is 14.6% local government and 84.6% City of Milan. Other shareholders hold the remaining 0.8%. Privatisation (partial) was scheduled for the end of 2001 but was stopped after the events of 11th September. Now the proposed date is October 2002 but this has still to be finalised. Only 30% of the shareholding will be moved into the private sector with no shareholder having more than 5%. There are no legislative changes required. The provision of airport services is shared between ENAV (ATC), Italian police (police), SEA (security), ATA and SEA Handling (passenger and ramp handling), Dufntal (duty-free) and SEA Parking (car parking). There are no current environmental issues but, in the future, there is a possible night ban and charges imposed according to aircraft noise. 2 Type ofairpo Milan Linate is a city-centre (almost) airport that serves mainly the scheduled domestic and international market with a growing low-cost airline presence (Buzz, Go). There is very little charter and cargo traffic but some General Aviation. The airport is subject to traffic distribution rules imposed by the Italian government with the aim of 'encouraging' airlines to move to Malpensa.
