ust apologize to UPS. I was under the impression the company was lob- bying the U.S. Congress so that it could compete with FedEx. However when the company says it is all about “fairness” I think what it really means is that if UPS has to bear the aggravation of work- ing with 240,000 Teamsters then so should its major competitor. MFair’s fair apparently. Ironically, $90,000-a-year-plus-pension Teamster mechanics are now threatening to strike UPS Airlines but are prohibited from doing so by the Railway Labor Act. This is the Act that UPS and the Teamsters would like Congress to reclassify so that FedEx employees can have the opportunity to join the International Brotherhood. This assumes the global economy will recover and they will have the luxury of choice. The U.S. Air Transport Association says the industry lost 150,000 jobs during the Bush Administration years. Simon Keeble [email protected] IATA says its member airlines will lose a combined $27.8 billion in the 2008/09 period that will take “years to recover.” The EU is poised to hit the airlines with more cargo cartel fi nes – on top of the $1.3 billion already paid - in the form of Europe’s fi rst class action lawsuit. And the EU unilateral Emissions Trading Scheme will suck $billions more from the airlines – who will do their best to pass on the cost to customers. And this is all because the industry emits less than two percent of global CO2 emis- sions. There’s a lot more hot air coming out the back end of a cow. So why doesn’t the EU tax the fast food industry instead? The result would mean less meat consumption, a drop in obesity levels, lower health care costs and a decline in methane production. The pace of global warming reportedly has fallen this year not because of the airline industry but because of an economic recession. In any upturn, taxing fast food would improve lives, pay for CO2 mitigation and leave more trees for carbon capture. FedEx, UPS, Lufthansa, DHL et al can deploy the most cost-effective, emission-reduc- ing aircraft on the planet and do everything possible to reduce CO2 while making a profi t to keep people employed. However what they and the airline industry cannot do is compete with an EU Commis- sion managed by idealogs determined to exercise a very peculiar ambition at the expense of others. Much like the Teamsters.

ACW OCTOBER 2009 51 Upset A new contract aimed at rebuilding Iraqi Airways hasin turned the country’sIraq nascent cargo market upside down. featurefocus Gateway Iraq
onfusion, chaos and uncertainty are words that are often used about Iraq, which is still struggling to return to normality six and a half years after the U.S.-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein. C But in this case, the words are being applied by the air cargo com- munity to a new deal put in place by the Iraqi government. Under the arrangement, which came into effect on Aug. 1, many cargo companies who have been operating freighter flights into Iraq in recent years have been forced to channel their business through RUS Aviation, an air services company based in Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. Seasoned observers say the result has been substantial disrup- tion to cargo traffic. Iraq has never been an easy market to operate into, of course. Pioneers shortly after the end of the Iraq War included DHL, which operates scheduled freighter services to Baghdad out of its Middle Eastern hub in Bahrain. U.S. carriers such as FedEx, UPS and National Air Cargo have also been involved in flying supplies on behalf of the U.S. military forces in Iraq. Other players operate on the boundaries between charter and scheduled services. Established airlines include UK-based Coyne Airways, which earlier this year was flying twice a week with Russian ramp-loading IL-76s from Dubai to Baghdad, as well as to other places in Iraq on demand; and Starlight Airlines, a London-headquartered company, which operated up to five IL-76s a week to Erbil in the Kurdish north of the country. Dubai-based SKA Air and Logistics, which flies under the SkyLink Arabia brand name, also had flights both to and within Iraq, using a fleet of five IL-76s and four AN-12s. It operated feeder flights out of Baghdad to such locatons as Basra, Erbil and Sulaimaniyah, and had its own warehousing in these places. Meanwhile Luxembourg- based Cargolux accessed Iraq via an interline agreement with SilkWay, a carrier based out of Baku in Azerbaijan. Operators of conventional Western freighters were starting to join these players. Royal Jordanian has for some time been operating to Baghdad and other cities, using initially a 737 freighter, and then more lately an A310F. Avient Aviation, a Zimbabwe- registered carrier with an operational base in the UK and a new hub in Liege, Bel- gium, started a weekly DC-10 freighter from Vatry in France to Baghdad on July 18, working with local partner Iraqi Wings. Avient Managing Director Andrew Smith characterized the operation as essentially a wetlease arrangement, with Iraqi Wings planning to get its own operating permit and become an airline with its own freighters. “We are getting keen interest, so I think the service will soon grow to two or three times a week,” he said in late July. Two weeks later Avient’s flights were suspended, however, and remained so at the end of August. Skylink flights had also ceased at the start of August, and not resumed by its end. Some operators were reportedly reduced to sending cargo by ship to the Iraqi port of Uum Qasr and then trucking it to their destination. Others spoke of mas- sive disruption to their business. The reason was the Iraqi Airways contract with RUS Aviation, which offered the Sharjah company an exclusive four-year deal to build up its cargo business. Under the deal, RUS is to put up to twenty freighters at the disposal of the Iraqi carrier, as well as training its staff and bringing them up to international standards. Iraqi Airways will get 12 percent of revenues in the first two years, and 15 percent in the final two.
ACW OCTOBER 2009 53 featurefocus Gateway Iraq
The deal also seems to give RUS an exclusive right to all charter business into Iraq, abruptly upending a new regime that had been put in place since May. This required freighter operators into Iraq to pay a per kilo royalty on all shipments and put up bank guarantees. Five or six carriers had report- edly put up such a deposit, only to be told in mid-July that their money would be returned, and that they had in future to deal with RUS. Sources in the foreign operators say the policy was not carefully thought out, and led to chaos for cargo inbound to Iraq. One also accuses RUS of profiteering, saying it has put rates up by anywhere from 40 to 80 percent, and of inef- ficiency in dealing with their new customers, loading aircraft, or dispatching shipments on time. “They seem to have no idea how the freight business works, and they make us pay for their inefficiency,” says the source. the entire cargo business into Iraq. For its part, RUS Aviation admits to some teething trou- “We want a normal business climate and relations like bles, but says they are inevitable given that Iraqi Airways has you get in other countries. Of course, certain people are not been out of the international aviation business since 1990. happy because they had a bigger share of the market before, but all Iraqi Airways wants is to participate equally,” he says. He also insists that Iraq will “one hundred percent adhere to present bilateral agreements and MoUs” but informed sources say that it only came to this conclusion because it was forced to. Initially the Iraqi government seemed un- aware of the existence of aviation bilaterals, and had to be reminded of their reciprocal responsibilities by neighboring governments. The result is that national carriers from the UAE, Turkey and Jordan now fall outside of the RUS deal. That has prompted some players who were not in Iraq to get involved. Etihad Airways launched a twice-weekly A330- 600 freighter service to Baghdad at the start of September, and Royal Jordanian confirms that it continues to operate its twice-weekly A310 freighters to Baghdad. Ram Menen, senior vice president cargo for Emirates, says that Iraq “is of interest to us” but has no plans to start services. “Our major task is not just to provide aircraft capacity — that It remains to be seen whether other former operators will is the easy part,” says Robert Stroedel, a former CEO of also discover reciprocal rights that allow them to resume Etihad Airways now working for RUS as executive advisor to services in their own right. Smith at Avient was confident in the management of Iraqi Airways. “The main part is to train late August of getting the rights to resume the airline’s DC- Iraqi people in the modern tasks of aviation, and to give them the equipment they need to — for example, such basic things as computers.” In this context, Stroedel says some operational glitches are inevitable at first. “You can’t start an operation with relatively inexperienced staff, and expect everything to be perfect from day one. But we are working on it and will resolve any problems,” he says. He adds that while flights are being operated on an ad-hoc basis at present, the idea is to start scheduled freighter services, first to the UAE and then to Europe and Asia. He says that RUS is looking to source A300 freighters to start these services. Stroedel openly admits that Iraqi Airways wants to regain market share from foreign operators — “to participate in the traffic that is now mostly in the hands of others” as he puts it — but he denies claims that this is a naked attempt to corner
