Reference Number : MAVCOM/ED/CC/DIV4/2021(1) Application : Voluntary Notification and Application for an Anticipated Merger under section 55 of Act 771 Applicant(s) : Korean Air Lines Co., Ltd. and Asiana Airlines, Inc. Receipt of Application : 19 March 2021 Summary of Application : Korean Air Lines Co., Ltd. (“KE”), on behalf of KE and Asiana Airlines, Inc. (“OZ”) (collectively, “the Merger Parties”), sent a voluntary notification and application for an anticipated merger (“Anticipated Merger”). The purpose of the Anticipated Merger is for the rehabilitation of OZ. The Merger Parties note that KE’s merger with OZ would not result in substantial lessening of competition (“SLC”) as KE will continue to face intense competition and will remain subject to competitive restraints on its flights to and from Malaysia. The Merger Parties also note that the Anticipated Merger is expected to give rise to significant economic efficiencies. The Merger Parties submit that the relevant service markets in this case are the following origin and destination (“O&D”) city pair routes relating to passenger air transport services: a. Incheon International Airport (“ICN”) and Gimpo International Airport (“GMP”, collectively with ICN, “SEL”)-Kuala Lumpur International Airport (“KLIA”) and Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (“SZB”, collectively with KLIA, “KUL”); b. SEL-Kota Kinabalu International Airport (“BKI”); c. SEL-Senai International Airport (“JHB”); and d. Busan (“PUS”)-BKI.

  • IATA Comments on Draft Bill 19331 on Aircraft History Management
    IATA Comments on Draft Bill 19331 on Aircraft History Management The International Air Transport Association (IATA) is a global trade association for airlines representing some 290 airline members and accounting for 82% of total global air traffic. Our members include Asiana Airlines, Eastar Jet, Jeju Air, Jin Air, Korean Air, T’way Air and major foreign airlines that operate services to/from the Republic of Korea. IATA understands that the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea is currently seeking public opinion on a draft bill on the management of aircraft history by airlines. Due to the time constraint, IATA was unable to consult our member airlines extensively on the proposed bill. However, IATA would like to submit the below comments to the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea for your kind consideration. Ensuring that air travel remains a safe, secure and efficient mode of transport is a common objective for governments, aircraft operators and passengers. In this regard, IATA recognizes the importance of aviation safety and it is a top priority for both IATA and our member airlines. However, IATA is of the opinion that the requirement for airlines to publish aircraft history is unlikely to contribute positively to the enhancement of aviation safety. Given the likely limited benefits of these requirements, the compliance burden on airlines would increase disproportionately, particularly as requirements such as the provision of aircraft history for pre-owned aircraft would be difficult to comply with. More importantly, the requirements could bring about unintended consequences, by giving an impression that there is a direct correlation between the age of an aircraft and safety, which is incorrect and unjustified.

  • INDUSTRY RECOVERY Reportv OCTOBER 30, 2020 Tropical Storm Watch in Effect; Tropical Depression Atsani to Pass South-Southwest of Guam Late Tonight and Early Saturday
    INDUSTRY RECOVERY REPORTv OCTOBER 30, 2020 Tropical Storm Watch in Effect; Tropical Depression Atsani to Pass South-Southwest of Guam Late Tonight and Early Saturday The National Weather Service (NWS) continue to monitor what is now Tropical Depression Atsani (23W). At 8 a.m., NWS issued a tropical storm watch for Guam, meaning tropical storm conditions, including destructive winds of 39 mph or more, are possible this evening. As of 7 a.m., tropical depression Atsani was located 9.8 degrees north latitude and 146.8 degrees east longitude, about 375 miles south of Saipan and 290 miles south southeast of Guam. The system is moving north northwest at 14 mph with maximum sustained winds of 30 mph. Atsani is forecast to intensify steadily the next couple of days, becoming a tropical storm later today and a typhoon on Sunday. NWS advised, on its current track, the system is expected to pass about 140 miles southwest of Guam late this evening. Showers and thunderstorms are expected across the Marianas this morning with heavy showers and winds gusting up to 40 mph. Additional showers and thunderstorms are possible tonight and Saturday. A small craft advisory is in effect until 6 p.m. Saturday for the coastal waters of Guam, Rota, Tinian, and Saipan. Southeast winds of 15 to 25 kt with gusts of 30 to 35 kt and seas of 7 to 9 feet are expected. Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller vessels, should avoid navigating in hazardous conditions. The community is reminded that any northward deviation from the current forecast track, or faster intensification, could bring stronger winds to Guam and the southern coastal waters.

  • Rivalry Between Low Cost Carriers and Major Carriers: the Case in Korean Aviation Industry*
    JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS AND TRADE 99 Volume 7, Number 2, December 2009, pp. 99~128 Rivalry between low cost carriers and major carriers: the case in Korean aviation industry* Jin-Kook Lee**and Tae Seung Kim*** Abstract As the wave of liberalization and deregulation have accelerated to relieve rigid controls over airline routes, capacity, and fare setting regimes, Low Cost Carriers (LCCs) have emerged especially in local aviation markets since the 1970s. This paper has studied the effects of LCC's entry into the domestic aviation market which was pre-occupied by two major carriers, Korean Air (KAL) and Asiana Airlines. Through a simple model describing two situations, prior and post to LCC's entry, we analyzed changes and trends of each airline's output and profit based on the Cournot and two-stage Stackelberg game equilibrium. In summary, our conclusion consists of five points: (1) Even though JIN Air's entry reduced KAL's respective output and profit, the more JIN Air produces, the higher the joint-profit of KAL and JIN Air is, (2) From the joint-profit aspect, increasing KAL's output to a level than JIN Air's is more profitable on the Gimpo-Jeju route, on the other hand, increasing JIN Air's output higher than KAL's is more profitable on the Jeju-Busan route, (3) Even though JIN Air's entry increase Asiana Airline's output, the more JIN Air produces, the less Asiana Airlines's profit is, (4) Total output in markets as well as total profits of firms will increase under certain conditions, (5) KAL and JIN Air tend to get caught in an unresolved conflict on level of LCC cost.
