Airline Bankruptcy: the Post-Deregulation Epidemic Airline Bankruptcy: The Post-Deregulation Epidemic By Paul Stephen Dempsey McGill University Institute of Air & Space Law Copyright © 2013 by the author • “Airline deregulation is a bankrupt policy.” Hobart Rowen Washington Post columnist Every major US interstate airline at the time of deregulation in 1978 has since visited bankruptcy court, several more than once. 15 US AIRLINE INDUSTRY NET PROFIT MARGINS 1950-2009 10 5 0 -5 -10 net profit margins -15 -20 year • 2000 – U.S. profit $2.5 billion • 2001 - U.S. loses $8.3 billion • 2002 - U.S. loses $11.4 billion • 2003 - U.S. loses $1.7 billion • 2004 - U.S. loses $9.1billion • 2005 - U.S. loses $27.2 billion • 2006 - U.S. profit $18.2 billion • 2007 - U.S. profit $7.7 billion • 2008 - U.S. loses $23.8 billion • 2009 - U.S. loses $2.5 billion • 2010 – U.S. profit $3.6 billion US Carriers cumulatively lost $52 billion in this decade. U.S. General Accountability Office • “Structurally, the airline industry is characterized by high fixed costs, cyclical demand for its services, intense competition, and vulnerability to external shocks. As a result, airlines have been more prone to failure than many other businesses, and the sector’s financial performance has continually been very weak . • “Since the 1978 economic deregulation of the U.S. airline industry, airline bankruptcy filings have become prevalent in the United States, and airlines fail at a higher rate than companies in most other industries.” • U.S. Government Accountability Office, Commercial Aviation: Bankruptcy and Pension Problems are Symptoms of Underlying Structural Issues (Sep. 2005). Liquidation or Reorganization? • The purpose of bankruptcy is to give honest debtors a “fresh start” by relieving them of most debt, and to repay creditors in an orderly manner to the extent the assets of the debtor are adequate. • Because the “going concern value” of an airline is typically greater than the liquidation of the carrier, most airlines opt for Chapter 11 reorganization bankruptcy. • Many, however, are dismembered in Chapter 7 liquidations. Voluntary or Involuntary? • Bankruptcy proceedings may be classified as either voluntary or involuntary. • A voluntary bankruptcy is filed by the debtor, whereas an involuntary bankruptcy is filed by the creditors.
