ACW MARCH 2011 3 editorial Air cargo by the numbers umbers and air cargo go hand in hand. By now, almost every carri- er, airport and other organization has released its 2010 results, and statisticians have begun pouring through the heaps of data looking for some clue to where air cargo is heading in 2011. Knowing how this industry is so enamored with statistics, I thought you might enjoy looking at some numbers that have popped up in the news in the past few weeks. 20.6. IATA’s reported airfreight growth rate, in percent, for 2010. Air- freight exceeded pre-recession highs last year by 1 percent. It is still too early and too risky to say the industry is back to flying in blue skies, but visibility is Steve Prince clearly improving. Publisher €800 million. Total price of fines levied by the European Commission (EC) on 11 carriers for their alleged role in the price-fixing scandal. Will the string of punishments over the price-fixing scandal ever end? Who’s next in line to file for a piece of this fine pie? 10. Number of months the EC investigated the merger of Olympic Air and Aegean Airlines before deciding it would be monopolistic. Monopolistic is my choice of word because it sounds more Greek than anti-competitive. 17.05. The percentage of cargo tonnage growth in 2010 at Atlanta Harts- field-Jackson International Airport. Nice job ATL! OK, so I’m a bit of a “hom- er,” but hats off to them, they are cargo serious. The recent additions of Asiana Airlines and Cargoitalia should only help improve growth even more. 18.9. The percentage of cargo traffic growth year over year, according to the International Civil Aviation Organization. This is a very interesting statistic. For some reason, we always think in terms of tonnage and not traffic. 3,443. The total number of orders Boeing has on its books. It will be nice to see that number decrease when Cargolux receives the first 747-8 Freighter in a few months. 100. The expected number of AN12’s to be replaced by B737’s of the con- version kind for domestic use in Russia in the next few years. Ah-h, at last — from America, with love. 25. The percent increase in fleet size during the next four years recently announced by Lufthansa Cargo. That’s an impressive number! I’ll take a 25 percent increase anytime. These numbers can tell us much about the industry’s health, but the interpre- tation is strictly up to you. So, what’s in these numbers? You be the judge. 4 March 2011 ACW viewpoint Is 2011 the year for air cargo? ir cargo is expected to contribute to a second protected from tampering.

DISCUSSION 2.1 The Third meeting of the MID Safety Support Team (MID-SST/3) held in Abu Dhabi, UAE, 10-13, recognized the need to monitor the status of SMS implementation by air operators, maintenance organizations and training organizations involved in flight training; in order to take necessary actions to overcome the challenges faced and to improve safety. 2.2 In this regard, the meeting agreed that IATA with the support of the ICAO MID Office will provide feedback and a plan of actions to address SMS implementation by air operators. RASG-MID/6-WP/15 - 2 - 2.3 The meeting may wish to note that Safety Management Systems (SMS) is an integral part of the IOSA program.

  • Project Report on Jet-Etihad Deal
    PROJECT REPORT ON JET-ETIHAD DEAL (INTER DISCIPLINRY PROJECT) SUBMITTED BY: SHREY AGGARWAL SIDDARTH YADAV The Indian Aviation Industry has been going through a turbulent phase over the past several years facing multiple headwinds – high oil prices and limited pricing power contributed by industry wide over capacity and periods of subdued demand growth. Over the near term the challenges facing the airline operators are related to high debt burden and liquidity constraints - most operators need significant equity infusion to effect a meaningful improvement in balance sheet. Improved financial profile would also allow these players to focus on steps to improve long term viability and brand building through differentiated customer service. Over the long term the operators need to focus on improving cost structure, through rationalization at all levels including mix of fleet and routes, aimed at cost efficiency. At the industry level, long term viability also requires return of pricing power through better alignment of capacity to the underlying demand growth. While in the beginning of 2008-09, the sector was impacted by sharp rise in crude oil prices, it was the decline in passenger traffic growth which led to severe underperformance during H2, 2008-09 to H1 2009-10. The operating environment improved for a brief period in 2010-11 on back of recovery in passenger traffic, industry-wide capacity discipline and relatively stable fuel prices. However, elevated fuel prices over the last three quarters coupled with intense competition and unfavourable foreign exchange environment has again deteriorated the financial performance of airlines. During this period, while the passenger traffic growth has been steady (averaging 14% in 9m 2011-12), intense competition has impacted yields and forced airlines back into losses in an inflated cost base scenario.
