RESUMEN DE PRENSA 29 De Abril De 2016 RESUMEN DE PRENSA 29 de abril de 2016 LOS ANALISTAS ESPERAN QUE IAG MEJORE RESULTADOS POR EL AHORRO EN COMBUSTIBLE 29/04/2016 El buen tono de tráfico aéreo, la incorporación de Aer Lingus y la reducción de costes derivada del ahorro en combustible impulsarán los resultados de IAG en el primer trimestre del año. EXPANSIÓN Entre enero y marzo, los ingresos del hólding de Iberia, British Airways, Vueling y Aer Lingus rozarán los 5.000 millones de euros, un 5% más que en 2015, según el consenso de analistas consultados por Bloomberg. El resultado operativo antes de extraordinarios pasará de 25 a 296 millones, con un beneficio neto de 53 millones, frente a las pérdidas de 26 millones de 2015. Según Renta 4, las ganancias netas podrían alcanzar los 93 millones. "Esperamos ver una mayor moderación de precios. El fuerte descenso de los gastos de combustible, que caen un 22% respecto a 2015, limita el aumento de los gastos, incluso teniendo en cuenta el elevado crecimiento de la oferta y la incorporación de activos", apunta Iván San Félix, analista de Renta 4, que prevé que Iberia y Vueling crezcan a mayor ritmo que British Airways. Asimismo, San Félix no descarta que IAG mejore el objetivo de resultado operativo antes de extraordinarios previsto para 2016. El grupo reunirá a sus accionistas en junta el próximo 16 de junio. Se someterá a la aprobación de los inversores la reelección de todos los consejeros, con la excepción del vicepresidente, Sir Martin Broughton, y de César Alierta, expresidente de IAG, por motivos personales. Marc Bolland, ex consejero delegado de Marks & Spencer, y Emilio Saracho Rodríguez de Torres, vicepresidente de JP Morgan Chase, se incorporarán al consejo como independientes. ALIERTA DEJA EL CONSEJO DE IAG 29/04/2016 El expresidente de Telefónica César Alierta abandonará "por motivos personales" el consejo de administración de IAG en la próxima junta general de accionistas, que se celebrará el 16 de junio, según ha informado el grupo aéreo en un comunicado remitido a la Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV). EL PAÍS El consejo de administración del holding que agrupa a Iberia, British Airways, Vueling y Aer Lingus, a recomendación de la comisión de nombramientos, ha propuesto a la junta la reelección de todos los consejeros con la excepción de Martin Broughton y César Alierta Izuel. El órgano de gestión de IAG explica que estos consejeros comunicaron que "por motivos personales" no desean que su cargo se someta a reelección y, por lo tanto, cesarán como consejeros de la sociedad con ocasión de la junta general de accionistas. César Alierta abandonó la presidencia ejecutiva de Telefónica el pasado 8 de abril tras casi 16 años al frente de la compañía, cediendo el testigo al hasta entonces consejero delegado del grupo, José María Álvarez-Pallete. Pese a abandonar la presidencia, Alierta sigue formando parte del consejo de administración de Telefónica, cargo que ocupa desde cuatro años antes de acceder a la presidencia, y centra sus aportaciones en temas sociales y de progreso, como es la Educación Digital y la presidencia ejecutiva de Fundación Telefónica. Martin Broughton, vicepresidente del IAG desde mayo de 2010, reelegido en junio de 2015, fue presidente de British Airways desde 2004 a 2013 y consejero desde 2000. Nuevos consejeros Para cubrir estas dos vacantes, el consejo de administración va a proponer a los accionistas el nombramiento de Marc Bolland y Emilio Saracho Rodríguez de Torres como nuevos consejeros no ejecutivos independientes de la sociedad. Asimismo, según el orden del día anunciado, IAG someterá a la aprobación de su junta de accionistas el resultado del ejercicio de 2015 y propondrá la aprobación de un dividendo complementario de 10 céntimos de euro, entre otros puntos, como ya había anunciado, que unido al que abonó en diciembre del mismo importe, supone una retribución de 20 céntimos por título para el año. Se trata del primer dividendo de su historia, cinco años después de la fusión entre Iberia y British Airways, y el primer paso para establecer un dividendo sostenible. IAG cerró 2015 con un beneficio neto de 1.516 millones de euros, un 51,1% más, impulsado por los buenos resultados de Iberia que casi quintuplicó sus ganancias el ejercicio pasado. EL PRAT TENDRÁ QUE CERRAR LA PISTA PRINCIPAL DURANTE UN MES POR UNAS OBRAS 29/04/2016 Aena invertirá 27 millones de euros en las obras de renovación de la pista principal del aeropuerto de Barcelona, una actuación que se llevará a cabo entre octubre de este año y julio del 2017 y que obligará a cerrar la pista más larga del aeródromo barcelonés durante unos 27 días. EL PERIÓDICO Los trabajos consisten en la regeneración del pavimento de la pista y de las calles de salida y en la sustitución de las luces de balizamiento por luces tipo led, para mejorar la eficiencia energética y optimizar el mantenimiento, según ha informado Aena este miércoles en un comunicado. Durante el periodo de obras se sustituirán las canalizaciones de cableado y los circuitos primarios de pista por unos nuevos y se actuará en la eliminación de algunos obstáculos en la franja de pista. El plazo de ejecución de la obra es de nueve meses y la presentación de ofertas para su adjudicación finaliza el 3 de mayo. ESTRENADA EN 1948 La pista 07L/25R, la más larga de las tres que hay en servicio en El Prat, se abrió en 1948 y los últimos trabajos de regeneración se llevaron a cabo en el 2005. Las obras obligarán a cerrar la pista principal a lo largo de 27 días, durante los cuales el aeropuerto utilizará las otras dos pistas en configuración preferente, mientras que en configuración no preferente utilizará la pista única del mar. Según Aena, esta solución es la que menos afecta medioambientalmente, pero reducirá la capacidad operativa y el número de ‘slots’ ofertados, lo que implicará que las compañías aéreas tendrán que ajustar su operación a la capacidad disponible, modificando el horario de los vuelos o bien cancelando cuando la demanda supere a la capacidad. GRUPO DE TRABAJO DE RUIDOS Aena ha planificado las obras de la pista principal de El Prat en coordinación con los operadores aeroportuarios y con Enaire, el ente que se encarga de la navegación aérea. El plan también ha sido comunicado al grupo de trabajo de ruidos del que forman parte los ayuntamientos del entorno del aeropuerto, las asociaciones de vecinos, compañías aéreas y de ‘handling’ y otros agentes implicados del sector. VUELING BUSCA 400 TCP’S PARA HACER FRENTE A LA TEMPORADA DE VERANO 29/04/2016 Vueling está buscando 400 tripulantes de cabina para hacer frente a la temporada de este verano, en la que prevé operar más de 400 rutas. PREFERENTE Para ello, la compañía española ha iniciado los ‘Open Days’, unas jornadas que llevará a cabo por Alicante, A Coruña, Bilbao, Madrid, Barcelona, Málaga, Sevilla, Tenerife y Gran Canaria, con el objetivo de captar candidatos. La aerolínea ha señalado que los nuevos profesionales se incorporarán a la plantilla actual de la empresa durante los próximos meses, tanto para sus bases nacionales como europeas. UN PÁJARO IMPACTA CON UN AVIÓN EN PLENO VUELO Y LE OBLIGA A ATERRIZAR 29/04/2016 El morro de un avión de American Airlines ha quedado abollado tras sufrir el impacto de un pájaro. El Airbus A 321 acababa de despegar de Seattle destino Dallas, en Texas, cuando recibió un fuerte golpe y se vio obligado a aterrizar. ABC El vuelo transportaba 150 pasajeros y 6 miembros de la tripulación que no sufrieron ningún daño. El equipo de mantenimiento, tras examinar el avión, abría la posibilidad de que fuera más de un pájaro el que impactó contra el avión. La compañía pedía ayer disculpas a los pasajeros habilitando un nuevo aeroplano que reanudó, por la tarde, el itinerario del siniestrado..

Above all we have tried to create the right internal governance structure to support our dynamic and highly successful business model, led by a holding company and formed of independent airlines with their own brands and operations. The Group was born as the product of a merger of two companies, with structures inevitably complex due to airline- specific regulations and the particular circumstances of both companies. Since then, the Group has grown to include two new airlines and has evolved as a distinct entity to those originally merged companies. Our job as a Board has been to look progressively at ways to adapt to this new born entity and to its strategy and culture, simplifying the initial structures so that we have the flexibility that this dynamic business needs.

  • Walsh Pone a Sus 'Chicos De Confianza' a Pilotar Iberia En Tiempo Récord
    Walsh pone a sus 'chicos de confianza' a pilotar Iberia en tiempo récord Miguel Ángel Gavira | 16/09/2013 El consejero delegado de IAG, Willie Walsh, ha logrado en tiempo récord colocar en puestos clave de la compañía a gente de su confianza, mientras que los consejeros y directivos que provenían de Iberia han ido cayendo paulatinamente. En menos de tres años, el ex comandante de avión irlandés ha logrado situar a media docena de delfines en primera línea de batalla al tiempo que ha visto como han caído una decena de potenciales enemigos en el holding nacido tras la fusión de Iberia y British Airways. Bien es cierto que la salida de Bankia, primer accionista de IAG, del accionariado de la compañía, ha sido también la causante de parte de esta reestructuración, pero ha habido movimientos que rompen claramente el espíritu de renovación marcado cuando se anunció la fusión entre British Airways e Iberia. Fallida renovación del consejo La idea inicial -no recogida oficialmente pero sí transmitida hasta la saciedad por ambas compañías aérea- era marcar varias fechas de salida en el calendario para ir renovando el consejo de administración del holding en tres tandas. El objetivo prioritario era lograr que al final de 2015, cuando se acababan las garantías de nacionalidad, estuviera totalmente renovado. Pero ya en la primera fase de este cambio estructural, señalada en rojo para la pasada Junta General de Accionistas de 2013, no se ha cumplido lo prometido desde los orígenes del holding aéreo. Según establece el documento de fusión de IAG, los primeros consejeros que debían reelegirse (estaba previsto tácitamente que no siguieran en el órgano ejecutivo) eran José Manuel Fernández-Norniella, Martin Broughton y Patrick Cescau.
