Thursday could Avinor, so to speak monopoly player in the operation of airports in Norway, put forward its best ever result:
A surplus 1.9 billion for 2014, which was historically peak year in Norwegian aviation.
The same day had the nation’s aviation success, Kjos’ budget airline Norwegian presenting a result of over a billion in minus.
Also SAS went with losses last year, the profit the year before.
Taper so it hurts
Those who provide services to airlines and passengers operates however with large profits. In addition to Avinor includes those engaged cafes and restaurants at airports, duty stores and those responsible for parking garages. Only security operations with deficit in 2013.
But they form the basis for the entire business – airlines – lose money so that nagging.
This is also the reason Avinor Friday chose to notify the greatest austerity package group has ever implemented.
This is also the reason why Avinor Friday chose to notify the greatest austerity package group has ever implemented.
– The airlines are going through major structural changes. Then it is nothing but natural that Avinor take their share of responsibility for strengthening aviation competitiveness, says CEO Dag Falk-Petersen.
English: – High time
The Group shall economize 1.5 billion over the next three years and aims to cut airline fees.
Norwegian communications director, Anne-Sissel Skånvik, believes it is high time that also Avinor puts the brake on and looking over their costs.
– We have for years seen the formidable revenue Avinor operated with. It’s a great paradox that mostly only those who live by the passenger volumes airlines supply, which manages to make a profit, says Skånvik.
She says that airlines now expect lower fees. English alone paid last year about 1.8 billion to Avinor to use Norwegian airports.
SAS: – The flight should not cost anything
The head of SAS. Knut Morten Johansen, is also expressed over the situation:
– That all other than the airlines earn money, is obviously not sustainable. It’s pretty special to operate in an industry where it costs enormously to produce, with soaring security focus, and an expectation in the market that a flight will not be dieting something. This breaks many companies, says Johansen.
He hopes Avinor promise of lower taxes not be eaten up by higher combinations on your coupon for other Avinor ratio.
– Avinor shall fairness be commended for aviation charges decreased by approximately 15mill. NZ from 2014 to 2015, but selskapetr boosting rents and ground rents so we still fikkk a cost increase of 20 million. NOK, says Johansen.
Overall dominant in Norway
SAS and Norwegian goes both with large losses. The two carrying seven out of ten passengers in Norway and is totally dominating at Norwegian airports.
The third airline operators in Norway, Widerøe was the only company that managed to get to operating profit in 2013.
In addition to fly competitive routes operates Widerøe also PSO routes on behalf of the state, which gives a slightly different earnings than those operations as SAS and Norwegian.
