The Austrian Airlines Group 2.1 Corporate Profile The Austrian Airlines Group is an independent, competition oriented, Austrian airline ensemble, belonging to the Lufthansa Airlines Group. The Austrian Airlines Group provides an attractive portfolio of services in the scheduled, cargo and charter segments. Top levels of quality and punctuality, an outstanding price-performance ratio, a dense network of connections via the central Vienna hub, individualized fare selection options and the proven Austrian touch are just some of the features used successfully by the Group to distinguish itself from competitor airlines. In line with the “Focus East” strategy, the main markets of the Austrian Airlines Group are its Central and East European services and connections to the Middle East. Long-haul services to North America and the Far East complete the Group’s product range. 4 2.2 Fleet The Austrian Airlines Group operates a total of 75 aircraft. The Group serves around 130 destinations in 66 countries on 4 continents. In 2012, the Group carried more than 11.5 million passengers. Aircraft of various types and sizes allow an efficient operation on given segments. Departure and arrival times are coordinated following well-structured banks so as to offer ideal national and international connections at the Vienna hub. The aircraft types Airbus 321 / 320 / 319, Boeing 777 / 767 / (737), Fokker 100 / 70 and Dash 8-400Q will bring you to the destination of your choice. The Austrian Airlines Group fleet grows every year, thus continually lowering the average age of the aircraft. With an average age of 8.4 years (31.12.2006), the fleet of the Austrian Airlines Group is approximately 3 years younger than the European average and is one of the most modern in the world.

    VICTORIA FALLS Ethiopian Airlines Factsheet - April 2017 OSLO ANTANANARIVO Overview Ethiopian Airlines (Ethiopian) is the leading and most profitable airline in Africa. In 2014 IATA ranked Ethiopian as the largest airline in Africa in revenue and profit. Over the past seven decades, Ethiopian has been a pioneer of African aviation as an aircraft technology leader. It all started with a military surplus C-47, leading the way with the first Jet service in the continent in the early 60’s to the first B-767 in the mid 80’s, to the first African B-787 Dreamliner in 2012 and the first African Airbus A-350 in 2016. Ethiopian joined Star Alliance, the world’s largest Airline network, in December 2011. Ethiopian is currently implementing a 15-year strategic plan called Vision 2025 that will see it become the leading airline group in Africa with seven strategic business units. Ethiopian is a multi-award winning airline, including SKYTRAX and Passenger Choice Awards in 2015, and has been registering an average growth of 25% per annum for the past ten years.

    AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2008 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Before Alliances, there was Pan American World Airways . and Trans World Airlines. Before the mega- Alliances, there was interlining, facilitated by IATA Like dogs marking territory, airlines around the world are sniffing each other's tail fins looking for partners." Daniel Riordan “The hardest thing in working on an alliance is to coordinate the activities of people who have different instincts and a different language, and maybe worship slightly different travel gods, to get them to work together in a culture that allows them to respect each other’s habits and convictions, and yet work productively together in an environment in which you can’t specify everything in advance.” Michael E. Levine “Beware a pact with the devil.” Martin Shugrue Airline Motivations For Alliances • the desire to achieve greater economies of scale, scope, and density; • the desire to reduce costs by consolidating redundant operations; • the need to improve revenue by reducing the level of competition wherever possible as markets are liberalized; and • the desire to skirt around the nationality rules which prohibit multinational ownership and cabotage. Intercarrier Agreements · Ticketing-and-Baggage Agreements · Joint-Fare Agreements · Reciprocal Airport Agreements · Blocked Space Relationships · Computer Reservations Systems Joint Ventures · Joint Sales Offices and Telephone Centers · E-Commerce Joint Ventures · Frequent Flyer Program Alliances · Pooling Traffic & Revenue · Code-Sharing Code Sharing The term "code" refers to the identifier used in flight schedule, generally the 2-character IATA carrier designator code and flight number. Thus, XX123, flight 123 operated by the airline XX, might also be sold by airline YY as YY456 and by ZZ as ZZ9876.

  • Airline Alliances
    AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2011 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Open Skies • 1992 - the United States concluded the first second generation “open skies” agreement with the Netherlands. It allowed KLM and any other Dutch carrier to fly to any point in the United States, and allowed U.S. carriers to fly to any point in the Netherlands, a country about the size of West Virginia. The U.S. was ideologically wedded to open markets, so the imbalance in traffic rights was of no concern. Moreover, opening up the Netherlands would allow KLM to drain traffic from surrounding airline networks, which would eventually encourage the surrounding airlines to ask their governments to sign “open skies” bilateral with the United States. • 1993 - the U.S. conferred antitrust immunity on the Wings Alliance between Northwest Airlines and KLM. The encirclement policy began to corrode resistance to liberalization as the sixth freedom traffic drain began to grow; soon Lufthansa, then Air France, were asking their governments to sign liberal bilaterals. • 1996 - Germany fell, followed by the Czech Republic, Italy, Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Malta, Poland. • 2001- the United States had concluded bilateral open skies agreements with 52 nations and concluded its first multilateral open skies agreement with Brunei, Chile, New Zealand and Singapore. • 2002 – France fell. • 2007 - The U.S. and E.U. concluded a multilateral “open skies” traffic agreement that liberalized everything but foreign ownership and cabotage. • 2011 – cumulatively, the U.S. had signed “open skies” bilaterals with more than100 States. Multilateral and Bilateral Air Transport Agreements • Section 5 of the Transit Agreement, and Section 6 of the Transport Agreement, provide: “Each contracting State reserves the right to withhold or revoke a certificate or permit to an air transport enterprise of another State in any case where it is not satisfied that substantial ownership and effective control are vested in nationals of a contracting State .

  • The General Court Dismisses the Actions Brought by the Airline Niki
    General Court of the European Union PRESS RELEASE No 54/15 Luxembourg, 13 May 2015 Judgments in Cases T-511/09 and T-162/10 Press and Information Niki Luftfahrt GmbH v Commission The General Court dismisses the actions brought by the airline Niki Luftfahrt against Lufthansa’s acquisition of Austrian Airlines and the restructuring aid granted by Austria to Austrian in that regard None of the arguments put forward by Niki is capable of casting doubt on the Commission’s authorisation of that concentration and that aid, which it granted subject to conditions Austrian Airlines is the largest Austrian airline.1 Its main hub is Vienna International Airport (Austria). Due to financial difficulties faced by Austrian Airlines, the Austrian State decided to privatise it in 2008 by selling its majority shareholding of 41.56%. The bid of Germany’s largest airline, Lufthansa, whose hubs are Frankfurt International Airport (Germany) and Munich airport (Germany), was retained.2 In exchange for the transfer of the shares held by the Austrian State, Lufthansa’s bid proposed (i) to pay a purchase price of €366 268.75, (ii) to grant a debtor warrant capable of giving rise to an additional payment of up to €162 million should Austrian Airlines’s financial situation improve and (iii) that the Austrian State3 pay Austrian Airlines a subsidy of €500 million by means of a securitisation structure to be used to increase the capital of Austrian Airlines. In addition, Lufthansa initiated a take-over bid for Austrian Airlines’s remaining floating shares, which more shareholders accepted than was required.
