Y mientras aquí en México, con autoridades chiquitas (aunque estudiaron en el extranjero) que tienen ideas chiquitas para el país, no asi para sus intereses personales y de grupo,  no se le encuentra salida al conflicto del fraude en contra de los trabajadores de Mexicana de Aviación y  hasta quieren que los trabajadores sean los que paguemos por trabajar y sacar adelante a lo poco que han dejado esas autoridades chiquitas en colusión de sus cuates empresarios.

Airbus predicts demand for 736 new aircraft for Australia, New Zealand and Pacific Islands through 2030

 By Geoffrey Thomas | October 7, 2011

 The region’s growth rate is tipped to be 4.8% per year through 2030, matching the world average, but outstripping all other developed aviation markets, such as North America (2.5% domestic) and Western Europe (3.5% inter-regional).
 The region’s requirement for 736 new passenger and freighter aircraft includes 468 single-aisles, 211 twin-aisles and 57 very large aircraft. Of these, 731 will be passenger aircraft. Nearly half will replace older models with more fuel-efficient ones.
 In 20 years, the region’s passenger fleet will almost double from approximately 400 to more than 780 aircraft by 2030.
 The region’s proximity to Southeast Asia, China and India will also drive traffic growth, said Airbus. China and India will be at the center of the world’s strongest demand for aircraft (34%) and by 2030, the largest share of traffic (33%).
 This concentration of demand, together with its historical links to Western markets, will drive business and tourism in the region, Airbus said.

Qantas Group finalizes order for 110 A320s
The Qantas (QF) Group and Airbus have finalized a contract for 110 A320 family aircraft for QF subsidiary Jetstar in Australia and Singapore and the newly announced Jetstar Japan.
 The order for 78 A320neos and 32 A320s is the largest single order in Australian aviation history by aircraft units and follows a commitment signed in August (ATW Daily News, Aug. 17).
 The new aircraft will be deployed across the QF Group on short- to medium-haul domestic and international operations and will also be the key to the group’s new premium-based airline in Asia, according to CEO Alan Joyce.
 “The Airbus A320 will be the launch aircraft for Qantas' new, premium airline based in Asia and will support Jetstar’s expansion plans—including the establishment of Jetstar Japan,” Joyce said.
Iberia to launch subsidiary Iberia Express

 By Cathy Buyck | October 7, 2011

 International Airlines Consolidated Group (IAG) on Thursday approved the launch of subsidiary Iberia Express, which will be part of its short- and medium-haul network. The new carrier will start operations in summer 2012 with four Airbus A320s and will have 13 aircraft by the end of 2012. All the aircraft will be sourced from Iberia’s (IB) existing fleet, IB said.
 “The subsidiary is being established to compete effectively in the Spanish domestic and European market,” IAG said. “Over time it will develop new markets and destinations and strengthen the Madrid hub.” It will offer business and economy seats “at competitive fares” from Madrid for point-to-point traffic and also provide transfer feed onto IB’s long-haul network.
 The carrier initially disclosed plans in October 2009 to create a new short- and medium-haul carrier as part of its Strategic Plan 2012. The plan, outlined by group president and CEO Antonio Vasquez, addressed a situation that he described as “unsustainable” and required a “paradigm shift” in the way IB operated its short- and medium-haul segments (ATW, Dec. 1, 2009). The aim was to have the new carrier operating in 2011.

 IB’s short- and medium-haul network has been facing mounting competition from the high-speed train ( y aquí hasta el tren suburbano, que dicen  fue un logro del presidente del empleo, tiene problemas económicos y a ese SI que se le rescatará con recursos públicos ) and low-cost carriers, including Ryanair and easyJet, which both have bases at Madrid Barajas and Barcelona El Prat (BCN).
