The role of EVAIR is to facilitate the feedback of collected incident reports. The graph below shows these process by keeping up to date safety focal points on the side of the increases of manually reported incidents in absolute figures. airlines and ANSPs; forwarding ATM incidents to ANSPs or airlines involved; asking for the reply and, when/if the feedback arrives, forwarding it to an appropriate address.

  • Analysis of the Interaction Between Air Transportation and Economic Activity: a Worldwide Perspective
    ANALYSIS OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN AIR TRANSPORTATION AND ECONOMIC ACTIVITY: A WORLDWIDE PERSPECTIVE Mariya A. Ishutkina and R. John Hansman This report is based on the Doctoral Dissertation of Mariya A. Ishutkina submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The work presented in this report was also conducted in collaboration with the members of the Doctoral Committee: Prof. R. John Hansman (Chair) Prof. John D. Sterman Prof. Ian A. Waitz Report No. ICAT-2009-2 March 2009 MIT International Center for Air Transportation (ICAT) Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, MA 02139 USA Analysis of the Interaction Between Air Transportation and Economic Activity: A Worldwide Perspective by Mariya A. Ishutkina Submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics on March 11, 2009, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Abstract Air transportation usage and economic activity are interdependent. Air transportation provides employment and enables certain economic activities which are dependent on the availability of air transportation services. The economy, in turn, drives the demand for air transportation services resulting in the feedback relationship between the two. The objective of this work is to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between air transportation and economic activity. More specifically, this work seeks to (1) develop a feedback model to describe the relationship between air transportation and economic activity and (2) identify factors which stimulate or suppress air transportation development. To achieve these objectives this work uses an exploratory research method which combines literature review, aggregate data and case study analyses.

  • Hubert Horan 3:00 - 5:00 Pm
    Transportation Center Icarus Society presents…… “Economics of Airline Industry Consolidation” Speaker: Thurs. May 17, 2012 Hubert Horan 3:00 - 5:00 pm Aviation Expert and Independent Location: The Transportation Center Chambers Hall _ Lower Level Airline Consultant 600 Foster, Evanston Hubert Horan will provide insights into the future of the airline industry with special focus on alliances, metal neutrality and airlines mergers – now and in the future – drawing on his extensive expertise and experience in the aviation industry. Bio: Hubert Horan’s 25 year aviation career has been evenly split between consulting and airline management positions. He has been directly involved with multiple waves of airline mergers, alliances and industry restructuring, and since 2002 has been an independent consultant based in Phoenix. He has been directly involved with most of the major changes in international aviation since deregulation. In the 1980s he developed the original plan for the TWA-Ozark merger and also participated in the USAir– Piedmont and Continental-People Express mergers. He worked on a series of projects with Lufthansa and Alitalia to help them prepare for liberalization within Europe, and prepared the original plan for a Qantas- Australian-Air New Zealand merger. While at Northwest he led a massive international route network restructuring that drove the airline’s late 90s financial turnaround. He was responsible for the original development of the KLM-Northwest alliance network that served as the template for all subsequent immunized alliances. He spent four years in Zurich grappling with Swissair-Sabena, Europe’s first cross-border merger, and Swissair’s alliances with Delta and American.

  • British Airways Profile
    SECTION 2 - BRITISH AIRWAYS PROFILE OVERVIEW British Airways is the world's second biggest international airline, carrying more than 28 million passengers from one country to another. Also, one of the world’s longest established airlines, it has always been regarded as an industry-leader. The airline’s two main operating bases are London’s two main airports, Heathrow (the world’s biggest international airport) and Gatwick. Last year, more than 34 million people chose to fly on flights operated by British Airways. While British Airways is the world’s second largest international airline, because its US competitors carry so many passengers on domestic flights, it is the fifth biggest in overall passenger carryings (in terms of revenue passenger kilometres). During 2001/02 revenue passenger kilometres for the Group fell by 13.7 per cent, against a capacity decrease of 9.3 per cent (measured in available tonne kilometres). This resulted in Group passenger load factor of 70.4 per cent, down from 71.4 per cent the previous year. The airline also carried more than 750 tonnes of cargo last year (down 17.4 per cent on the previous year). The significant drop in both passengers and cargo carried was a reflection of the difficult trading conditions resulting from the weakening of the global economy, the impact of the foot and mouth epidemic in the UK and effects of the September 11th US terrorist attacks. An average of 61,460 staff were employed by the Group world-wide in 2001-2002, 81.0 per cent of them based in the UK.
