It will become the first full- triple decked large-body, long-range civil transport. Despite its large size, basic configuration of A380 is similar to a typical civil transport. Because of the customer imposed constraints, A380 is designed to fulfill current airport gate and runway requirements (80 m gatebox limitation). In the case of A380-100 (baseline configuration), the customers asked for direct operating costs 15% below current 747-400. Since A380 is a unique design, the production of the airplane depends on the improvements and new technologies in aerodynamics, structures, avionics, material science and system integration. 2 Motivation for the Development of A380 • World Air Traffic will double in 15 years and nearly triple in 20 years • First B-747 in 1970 – Turbofan powered – more than twice the size of its Figure source: Ref 7 predecessors MODELS – Since then no significant -50R ……...Shortened

    Lufthansa Group Conference & Roadshow Presentation March / April 2016 Disclaimer in respect of forward-looking statements Information published in this presentation concerning the future development of the Lufthansa Group and its subsidiaries consists purely of forecasts and assessments and not of definitive historical facts. These forward-looking statements are based on all discernible information, facts and expectations available at the time. They can, therefore, only claim validity up to the date of their publication. Since forward-looking statements are by their nature subject to uncertainties and imponderable risk factors – such as changes in underlying economic conditions – and rest on assumptions that may not occur, or may occur differently, it is possible that the Group’s actual results and development may differ materially from the forecasts. Lufthansa makes a point of checking and updating the information it publishes. However, the Company is under no obligation to update forward-looking statements or adapt them to subsequent events or developments. Accordingly, it neither explicitly nor implicitly accepts liability, nor gives any guarantee for the actuality, accuracy or completeness of this data and information. Page 2 The Lufthansa Group is based on three strong pillars - Synergetic portfolio of premium hub airlines, profitably growing P2P airlines and high margin aviation services - New organizational structure to create efficiencies and to help implementing seven fields of action The Lufthansa Group benefits from a sound financial setup - Strong balance sheet, investment grade rating, sustainable free cash flow generation - Clear and consistent dividend policy with industry leading pay-out ratio The Lufthansa Group has good FY15 results - Passenger airlines drive results improvement; improvements at MRO and Catering; Logistics below PY - Adj.

  • The Strategic Deployment of the Airbus A350-900XWB Aircraft in a Full-Service Network Carrier Route Network: the Case of Singapore Airlines
    infrastructures Article The Strategic Deployment of the Airbus A350-900XWB Aircraft in a Full-Service Network Carrier Route Network: The Case of Singapore Airlines Glenn Baxter ID and Panarat Srisaeng * ID School of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Suan Dusit University, Hua Hin, Prachaup Khiri Khan 77110, Thailand; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +66-32-522-508 Received: 7 June 2018; Accepted: 17 July 2018; Published: 19 July 2018 Abstract: In the global airline industry, an airline’s fleet routing affects its profitability, level of service and its competitive position. Using a qualitative research approach, this paper examines Singapore Airlines Airbus A350-900XWB fleet deployment and route network development for the period 2016 to 2018. The qualitative data was examined using document analysis. The study found that Singapore Airlines has deployed the Airbus A350-900XWB aircraft on new air routes from Singapore to Cape Town via Johannesburg, Düsseldorf and Stockholm via Moscow and return. The Airbus A350-900XWB aircraft are also replacing older, less efficient aircraft as part of the company’s fleet modernization strategy. Singapore Airlines is also acquiring the new ultra-long-range variant of the Airbus A350-900XWB for use on its proposed new non-stop services from Singapore to Los Angeles and Newark Liberty Airport in New Jersey, USA. The longest flight stage length is the Singapore to San Francisco route which is 7339 nautical miles (13,594 km) in length. The shortest stage length is between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur (160 nautical miles or 297 km). The new non-stop services from Singapore to Los Angeles and New York City will be the longest non-stop services operated by Singapore Airlines.
