Lufthansa cuts Q1 losses as it digests Air Berlin 26 April 2018 "signficant one-off costs" linked to its integration of parts of former rival Air Berlin, many of whose aircraft and staff it gobbled up following the competitor's insolvency last year. Eurowings will continue to shoulder one-off costs in the months ahead, the group said. Looking ahead to the full year, Lufthansa left its forecasts unchanged, targeting adjusted pre-tax profit "slightly below" 2017's level of 2.4 billion euros. © 2018 AFP Lufthansa's CEO welcomed what he called "a good set of results" German airline giant Lufthansa said Thursday it had pared back losses in the first quarter, but confirmed it expects a slightly leaner result over the full year than in 2017. The group booked a net loss of 57 million euros ($69 million) between January and March, 11 million euros smaller than the previous year. Its adjusted pre-tax profits reached 26 million euros, up one million year-on-year, while revenues slipped 0.7 percent to 7.6 billion euros. Chief executive Carsten Spohr called the performance a "good set of results," saying "we again managed to steadily further reduce our unit costs while simultaneously investing in the quality of our product." While the first quarter is traditionally a weak one for carriers, Lufthansa was able to fatten margins at its airlines like Swiss, Brussels and Austrian Airlines and at its cargo division. But low-cost division Eurowings suffered 1 / 2 APA citation: Lufthansa cuts Q1 losses as it digests Air Berlin (2018, April 26) retrieved 26 September 2021 from https://phys.org/news/2018-04-lufthansa-q1-losses-digests-air.html This document is subject to copyright.

Cidell Department of Geography and Environmental Studies California State University San Bernadino 5500 University Parkway, SB 327 San Bernadino, CA 92407 Tel: (909) 538 3777 [email protected] 1 Missed Opportunities: The Restructuring of Berlin’s Airport System and the City’s Position in International Airline Networks Abstract After its history as a divided city, Berlin was expected to become a major world city following reunification. While the city has grown in terms of investment and social capital, it has not attained the preeminent status on the global stage that was expected. One important reason for this is that Berlin remains no more than a secondary hub in the global airline industry. In this article, we measure the city’s importance in airline networks at four points from 1989 to 2006. We then explain the city’s stature in those networks today as a product of both larger forces in the airline industry and circumstances more specific to Berlin. The former include liberalization and the development of airline alliances. In Berlin, meanwhile, the fractured airport system, which the city inherited from the Cold War, has been an obstacle to Berlin’s aspirations for centrality in the airline industry.

Fly America Act and Open Skies Agreements Guidance
Fly America Act and Open Skies Agreements Guidance A person traveling on funds provided by the federal government must use a U.S. flag carrier (an airline owned by an American company), regardless of cost or convenience. When scheduling international travel that is federally funded, you must ensure that all flights, where possible, are scheduled on U.S. flag carriers or on foreign air carriers that code share with a U.S. flag carrier. Code sharing: when two or more airlines “code” the same flight as if it was their own. A U.S. airline may sell a seat on the plane of a foreign air carrier; this seat is considered the same as one on a plane operated by a U.S. flag carrier. Compliance with the Fly America Act is satisfied when the U.S. flag air carrier's designator code is present in the area next to the flight numbers on the airline ticket, boarding pass, or on the documentation for an electronic ticket (passenger receipt) – see example below, where Delta Airlines (DL) has a code share agreement with Air France (AF) to Paris, France. COMPLIANT NOT COMPLIANT US Flag Air Carriers - U.S. flag carriers and their codes are below to assist you. In order for a flight to be in compliance with the Fly America Act, the code of a U.S. flag air carrier must be noted as part of the flight number on the airline ticket, flight coupon (boarding pass*), or passenger receipt. Each airline has a two letter alpha code. From this list, you will be able to compare airline codes on the ticket with those on the list and thereby be able to ascertain whether or not the flight is on a US Flag air carrier.
