Fax: +44 20 7911 5057 e-mall: [email protected] A__hs!ra__ct In the current downaa'n in demand for air travel, major airlines are revising and rationalising their networks in an attempt to improve financial performance and strengthen their defences against both new entrants and traditional rivals. Expansion of commercial agreements or alliances with other airlines has become a key reaction to the increasingly competitive marketplace. In the absence, for regulatory reasons, of cross-border mergers these are the principal means by which the industry can consolidate internationally. The failure of airlines such as Sabena and Swlssair has also enforced restructuring at some of Europe's busier airports. This paper analyses the developments which have been taking place and attempts to itentify the implications for airline network _s and the function of different hub airports. Airlines have rationalised their networks by withdrawing services that feed the hubs of rival alliances. New ;links have however _ created hthatare made feasible by the alliance support. The range of services available to passengers in long-haul markets to/from Europe is evaluated before and after recent industry reorganisation. Hubs are crucial to interlink the route networks of parmers in an alliance. However, duplication between nearby hub airports that find themselves within the same airline alliance can lead to loss of service at the weaker locations.

  • Jet Fuel: from Well to Wing
    Jet Fuel: From Well to Wing JANUARY 2018 Abstract Airlines for America (A4A) is the nation’s oldest and largest U.S. airline industry trade association. Its members1 and their affiliates account for more than 70 percent of the passenger and cargo traffic carried by U.S. airlines. According to the Energy Information Administration, U.S.-based jet fuel demand averaged 1.6 million barrels per day in 2016. Generally, fuel is supplied to airports through a combination of interstate multiproduct pipelines, third-party and off-airport terminals, and dedicated local pipelines. The last few years have continued to demonstrate the fragility of this complex system and the threat it poses to air-service continuity. The current interstate refined products pipeline system, constructed many decades ago, is both capacity-constrained and vulnerable to disruptions that typically require a patchwork of costly, inadequate fixes. New shippers have difficulty obtaining line space and long-established shippers have difficulty shipping all of their requirements. It is likely that demand will continue to outpace the capacity of our outdated distribution system for liquid fuels. Given the increasing demand to transport liquid fuels, it is imperative that we take steps to overcome existing bottlenecks and prevent future ones. These fuels are essential to aviation, trucking and rail, among others, which help power our twenty- first century economy. As shippers and consumers of significant quantities of refined products on pipelines throughout the country, airlines and other users of liquid fuels have a substantial interest in addressing the nationwide deficiency in pipeline investment. Surely, expedited permitting for fuel distribution-related infrastructure projects could help pave the way to upgrade existing pipeline assets and expand throughput capacity into key markets.

  • Statement from Mr. Sanjay Aggarwal, CEO, Kingfisher Airlines Ltd
    Statement From Mr. Sanjay Aggarwal, CEO, Kingfisher Airlines Ltd. Mumbai, November 12, 2011---Kingfisher would like to take the opportunity to clarify its position on the following points: • The airline industry in India is going through a tough period due to high costs and lower yields. This is evident by the unprecedented losses recently reported. To counter these pressures and leveraging its strengths, Kingfisher decided to rationalize network, drop unprofitable flights and expedite its fleet reconfiguration. This initiative will improve the long term profitability of the airline. • The reconfiguration initiative will require up to 3 aircraft to be out of service over the next three months at any one time for this exercise to be completed. It will reduce the number of fleet configurations from 7 to 3, improving operational flexibility. This initiative will add more seats to the fleet, improving revenue production of each aircraft. • The actions over the last few weeks have been to implement the above strategy in a pre-determined and well- controlled fashion. • Kingfisher Airlines has rationalized its network to offer maximum and seamless connectivity. As per the revised schedule, it will offer 300 daily flights connecting 54 cities as compared to its previous schedule of 340 flights. The revised schedule is being loaded in the system and guests can confidently continue booking Kingfisher flights. • Our guests remain our top priority. We reached out to all our guests who were booked on these cancelled flights to re-accommodate them either on our or other airline flights. We offered full refund to those who so desired.

  • Current Indonesian Air Transportation (2016)
    IOSR Journal of Applied Chemistry (IOSR-JAC) e-ISSN: 2278-5736.Volume 9, Issue 10 Ver. II (October. 2016), PP 12-31 www.iosrjournals.org Current Indonesian Air Transportation (2016) Ariawan Gunadi1 and Martono K2. 1S.H.,M.H.(Tarumanagara University), PhD 2S.H.(Indonesian University),LL.M (Mc Gill), PhD I. Introduction Indonesia’s aviation industry is rapidly growing towards meeting its enormous potential. With more 250 million people living on 17,000 islands across 5,200 km East to West and nearly 2,000 km North to South, this is a country suitable for air transport expansion. As growing numbers of Indonesians are discovering, air transportation is the most efficient option for getting around. With 70% of visitors arriving by air, the importance of aviation to the lucrative tourism industry is undeniable. It may be less obvious, but even more important to note, that aviation connectivity connects Indonesian businesses to markets around the world. Aviation is big business in Indonesia today. But the potential is even bigger. By 2034, it is expected that Indonesia will rank 6th globally when it serves the needs of some 270 million passengers. That would be three times the size of today’s market. Wherever aviation grows, it brings prosperity—creating jobs and stimulating business. It is absolutely in Indonesia’s interest to see its aviation sector flourish. But, there is a big role for collective leadership among industry partners—including the government—to make that happen. Tony Tyler (Director General of IATA) hopes that the future will bring about a common vision and find the ways to work together to realize it.
