From The Editor's Desk
The financial
downslide took its toll on the Indian Aviation sector with the passenger
traffic recording a negative growth rate of about 8 per cent in the
first half of this year. Passengers carried by domestic airliners
between January and June 2009 came down to about 21.1 million from 22.9
million in the same period last year thereby registering a negative
growth. However, the total domestic passengers carried by the Indian
Scheduled Airliners in the second quarter of 2009 was 10.94 million
against 9.82 million between January and March.
The
percentage market share of the carriers between January and June showed
that Air India (Domestic) cornered 17.5 percent,Jetairways16.3 percent,
Jet Lite 7.4 percent, Kingfisher Airlines (including Kingfisher
Red)25.3, Spice Jet 12.4,Paramount 2.1,GoAir 4.9 and Indigo 13.7.
Fighting desperately against a down turning aviation scenario in India
and everywhere else the lobby body of Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA)
has sought Government of India intervention to help them. All Private
Airlines have requested for lowering of taxes on jet fuel and abolishing
Airport Charges. The cartel of FIA has informed that they plan to
suspend their operations on the18th of August as a token protest against
inaction to their demands.
Among
these airlines, Jet Airways, Kingfisher, Spice Jet and Indigo are yet to
pay Rs.212 Crore to the Airports Authority of India for using its
infrastructure. Kingfisher, Jet Airways and Spice Jet also owe Rs.1726
crore to oil marketing companies.
The
need of the hour is to develop an innovative business model by all in
the aviation fraternity where the maximum people benefit with minimum
overheads and cost. Because in a country where98% people travel by train
and only a meager 2% by air the Endeavour should be to allow maximum
people fly in an innovative and efficient business model. Any extra flab
can be deducted to achieve this. The need of the hour is not to get
together to form a cartel and fix prices because that could start less
occupancy in all the flights and start of airline woe.
So
let us not blame each other for whatever we are into and come up
strongly with -
-
long term strategy which focus on continuous reorganization of
processes and
resources
-
develop our non aviation activity in a manner to increase profits
-
introduce cost cutting measures
develop strategy to make our airports the place where multifarious
activities be it cargo, MRO or any commercial activity flourish
With
proper planning, organized actions and introspection we shall survive
the BAD WEATHER.
SO
LET US.
