A large number of airline routes have disappeared. International Aviation Association

Ban "The civil aviation industry is an engine of blood and globalisation that makes international trade flow smoothly."　　Giovanni Bisignani, director of IATA, describes the importance of the airline. But as early as the crash of Air France AF447 flights, a large number of aircraft routes have disappeared on a global scale, and more routes are on the verge of abating, which has led IATA to appeal that governments need to be aware of the importance of supporting the civil aviation industry in maintaining international trade. "Take London to the United States as an example, in the past, this is called ' Banker's Path ', and now there are not many bankers."　　Bisignani said on June 8. "Since the four quarter of 2008, airlines have been aggressively cutting capacity, hoping to boost profits and revenues this year, but the reduction in capacity has failed to keep pace with the disappearance of demand." "Jonathan Root, vice president of Moody's, said to this newspaper.　　He said the Air Transport Association (ATA) expects US civil aviation passengers to drop by 7% per cent this year from June 1 to August 31, while Moody's expects non-US carriers to experience similar declines in passenger traffic during the summer. The disappearance of trans-ocean routes in the North Atlantic is a reflection of the need for the civil aviation industry to make painful adjustments to meet the needs of disappearing. As of July this year, 21 airlines will cancel as many as 43 trans-North Atlantic Routes (Europe to North America, mainly the United States), according to airline business, an aviation business magazine. Among them, the U.S.-Northwest Airlines will cut 10 lines (it also added 5 new trans-ocean routes, but still a net reduction of 5 routes), the U.S. mainland airlines followed, cut 5 routes, and Indian Airlines cut 4 routes.　　In addition, the carrier, including Irish Airlines, British BMI, Hungarian airlines, and Scandinavian Airlines, although not many airlines, but did not hesitate to abandon the Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas, Chicago and other important flights, the industry surprised. At the same time, the surviving transatlantic route is also facing a bleak reality of reduced flight density.　　Both north-west and Lufthansa have significantly reduced the density of several trans-ocean routes, while Air France and American airlines have cut their density by a whopping 50%. Although there are still companies including Iceland Airlines, reverse the city to get the other opponents of the mature market, but from the "Airline business" data shows that this summer, the United States and Europe, the carrier, the daily total of 249 flights, the number of available guest kilometer (ask) plunged by 8% per year. These temporary capacity adjustment measures are likely to extend the implementation period. Uwe Weinreic, an analyst at the United Credit Bank in Italy, told the newspaper that KLM's CEO, Pierre-henri Gourgeon, had said that overall capacity would be cut by 4.5% per cent this summer, and management had further confirmed thatContinues to deteriorate, "will extend the implementation of capacity reduction measures this winter." Bisignani points out that the worst may have passed since the fall in air traffic. "However, we have yet to see signs of a recent recovery. ”
