Editorial When and Where Will the First Airline Profits Summit & Awards Take Place? Kofi Sonokpon editor@airlineprofits.com

Welcome to the fifth edition. It has been almost a year since we launched Airline Profits magazine, which we hope will gradually become your favorite publication as far as airline profitability is concerned. And as we strive to improve on the content and delivery of each new edition, our main desire is to engage aviation leaders and influencers in order to make the airline industry as profitable as it can possibly be.

Now, just imagine how greater the impact would be on a global scale when the vast majority of airlines could post profits every single year, not just a few exceptions here and there. There is no doubt that the currently estimated contribution of airlines to the global economy, approximately 10 trillion dollars, could grow significantly, more rewarding and stable jobs could be created and above all, more lasting friendships among people and nations could be established. We are convinced that these tangible results cannot be achieved singlehandedly nor in a vacuum. That is why we intend to encourage key aviation stakeholders to

Profile Ryanair: What Did the Airline Profits Sustainability Index Reveal?

In the August edition of Airline Profits, we presented our first review of Air Canada based the Airline Profits Sustainability Index (APSI). This is an integrated metric, which takes into account three dimensions: People, Performance and Agility. In this edition, we are presenting our second airline review on the basis of the APSI: that of Ryanair.

Our analysis covered a period of 10 years, starting 2005 through 2014. We have also considered

by highlighting some key facts.

Creation and History Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, Ryanair was founded in 1985 by Irish businessman Tony Ryan (founder of Guinness Peat Aviation), after whom the carrier is named, and two other business associates:

nergan. The airline started operations in the month of July 1985. In 2013, Ryanair became both the largest airline in Europe and the busiest international airline, in terms of passengers flown.

Perspective United Airlines: Has Oscar Munoz Sowed Genuine Seeds of Transformation?

At the time this edition of Airline Profits was being finalized, United Airlines announced the appointment of Brett J. Hart as Acting CEO, while Oscar Munoz was reported to be on a medical leave. Indeed, just a month after taking office as the new CEO, United issued a short news release on October 16, reporting that Mr. Munoz had suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized.

This is the opportunity to wish him well. We hope that he will recover quickly and return at the

helm of United, in order to pursue the transformational work that he has initiated. We also hope that the airline will continue in the same direction Oscar Munoz has so vividly pointed the organization, in such a short period of time. In that regards, on one hand, Henry L. Meyer III, non-Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of United Airlines expressed his confidence in Mr. Hart’s abilities to carry on the mission and strategy Mr. Munoz has initiated. On the other hand, Mr. Meyer also

It may be too early to predict what the outcome of the initiative that led to the UnitedAirtime.com will be. However, by giving the opportunity to employees and customers to share their ideas and inviting them to also submit their "tough" questions, Oscar Munoz, the new CEO of United Airlines has undoubtedly set the company on a path to a successful transformation.

Airline Profits

Appointed in early September 2015 as President and CEO of the second largest airlines in the world, Mr. Munoz wasted no time for formalities. He embarked immediately on a tour to meet United’s employees and customers. By so doing, he received their feedback on the state of the airline and their perspective about its future. With UnitedAirtime.com, Oscar Munoz seemed to have walked the talk, by putting into action some of the points he briefly out-

October 2015

outlined upon his appointment: “It is truly a privilege to serve as United’s CEO. United has an incredible opportunity for improving an experience that is essential to the vitality of global business and to the personal lives of millions of people, for innovation, and for earnings growth. In my years serving on the board, I have been impressed by the dedication and skill of my new coworkers. Together, we will make United the topperforming airline.”

Perspective In the quest of making United Airlines “the best airline for customers and employees”, the United’s executive team has one major challenge to overcome. Namely, that of making United Airlines a truly united and seamless organization.

This implies that the difficulties arising from the merger with Continental Airlines are effectively ironed out. It also means that the People, the Processes and Systems are fully integrated to the point where United’s employees and customers perceive practically a single entity.

How long will that take? No one really knows. However, one thing is certain: Oscar Munoz seemed well prepared and determined to get the job done.

And that was a good starting point. That also sent a strong and positive message to United’s employees and customers, who welcomed it.

As far as Airline Profits are concerned, it appears that United Airlines are well on their way to meet the pre-requisite to compete effectively in the global marketplace in an open-sky environment.

www.airlineprofits.com

Therefore, they would do well to divert their attention from their Gulf competitors and rather focus their energy on effectively meeting their renewed commitment to employees, customers and shareholders.

Performance Are Airlines Focusing Too Much on a Single Component of the Airline Profit Equation?

If you are a regular reader of Airline Profits magazine, you will probably see a connection between this article and the one entitled: Airline Profits Outlook – Is the Airline Community Looking at the Right Profitability Drivers, which appeared in the first edition in February 2015.

As such, there are five essential scenarios to consider.

The first scenario is about maintaining revenues constant, while significantly reducing costs. This assumes that revenues are already high enough and that there is enough room to bring costs down. The second scenario is about increasing revenues significantly, while holding costs at a constant level. This assumes that there is enough room to up revenues and that costs are already at a mini-

mal level. The third scenario is about increasing revenues while reducing

costs. This assumes that there is enough room to play on both revenues and costs in opposite

directions. The fourth scenario is about seeing both revenues and costs go up, while maintaining a higher margin between them. This assumes that there is enough room to substantially increase revenues

and simultaneously holding the related costs to a minimum. The fifth scenario is about seeing both revenues and costs to go down, while maintaining a higher margin between them. This assumes that revenues are still much higher than the break-even point and that costs are being squeezed to a reasonable level. As the general reactions have proven, following the publication of countless headlines about cheaper oil and subsequent lower

fares, which passengers should expect, scenarios one and five are more or less the reality for airlines. Even though scenario three would or should be a better option for airlines in the long run to ensure sustained profitability, popular belief on one hand that airfares are too high and on the other hand, price wars that airlines inflict on themselves simply make that option a rather remote eventuality. So the question is: can airlines really control fuel costs? While some would point to fuel hedging as an effective 24

As a result, the current strong airline profitability could very well turn into huge losses, should oil prices skyrocket again in the future. Hence the question: are airlines focusing too much on a single component of the airline profit equation? www.airlineprofits.com

Platform African Open Skies: When Will the Yamoussoukro Declaration Be Implemented?

AFRAA’S 47th Annual General Assembly in Brazzaville, Congo On November 8-10, 2015, the African Airlines Association (AFRAA), currently led by Secretary General, Dr. Elijah Chingosho, will be holding their 47 th Annual General Assembly. Hosted by Equatorial Congo Airlines (ECAir) who’s CEO, Mrs. Fatima Beyina-Moussa is the current President of AFRAA, the meeting will take place in Brazzaville, Congo.

The chosen theme for this year’s gathering is “Open skies: Growth through competition and collabo-

ration”. With the official launch of Congo Airways in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), on October 9, 2015, the African continent now has some 46 mainline carriers, most of which are stateowned or national airlines with some government equity participation.

The said decision was supposed to be in force since August 12, 2000 after a transitory period of two years.

In theory, the African Heads of State and Government, who signed the declaration, fully understood commercial aviation to be a powerful leverage for international cooperation and economic growth.

www.airlineprofits.com

In our opinion, the so-called national pride, which somehow causes almost every African State to want to own and protect their airline against other African countries and their carriers is in reality not pride in the true sense of the term. A true meaning of pride is: an honest appreciation of that which is good.

Summary One will have to come up with a more accurate term to qualify what is preventing African States to do the right thing in support of their own economic growth. As the clock is ticking, and more and more foreign investors and tourists are considering Africa as the next big land of opportunity, we hope that it would not take yet another thirty (30) years for African States to finally and fully implement their Yamoussoukro Declaration.

Paradigm Have All Airlines Set Profits As a Yearly Destination?

Have all airlines set profits as a yearly destination? That’s right! This is not a typo. As airlines are generally perceived as connecting people from a specific origin (Point A) to a specific destination (Point B), the question is worth considering. This article refers back to a brief comment we received at the start of Airline Profits magazine in early 2015. The statement was more an expression of curiosity: “Airline profitability? You can hardly find an airline that is profitable over three years in succession.”

The viewpoint, which more or less reflects the general state of the airline industry, was shared

by a seasoned aviation manager, who obviously knew what he was talking about. The very fact that, he purposefully omitted Southwest Airlines or WestJet, was undoubtedly because
