Strikes avoided at KLM after new pension scheme agreement reached for ground staff

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has avoided possible strike action by staff after an agreement has been reached for the KLM Ground staff over new pension arrangements.  This follows the earlier conversion of KLM pension schemes into collective defined contribution schemes for Cockpit and Cabin staff in 2017, 

This implies that all major KLM pension funds now (finally) have a collective defined contribution scheme. This will lead to more predictable annual contributions and less volatility on the Balance Sheet. A shift fully in line with the general trend in The Netherlands.

KLM and the five Dutch ground unions in KLM reached an agreement allowing the modification of the ground’s pension scheme as per January 2021. This formal agreement between KLM and the Board of the KLM Ground pension fund has been reached. In summary:

Icelandair sells off holiday business Iceland Travel for £8 million.

The sale is subject to general conditions such as approval from the Competition Authorities. Delivery of shares will take place when these conditions have been fulfilled.

The enterprise value of Iceland Travel amounts to ISK 1,400 million / £8,159,200  of which ISK 350 million are subject to certain performance metrics over the years 2022 and 2023. The purchase price will be adjusted according to position of net debt and net working capital at the time of closing of the transaction. Current net debt of Iceland Travel is negligible as that has already been absorbed into Icelandair Group.

Iceland Travel provides services to agents and other businesses (B2B) and its service offering spans a wide range of high-quality services for travellers from all over the world, offering a full range of guided tours, day tours and road trips.

Flair Airlines starts flying with Boeing 737 MAX jets.

Photo Flair Airlines 

Flair Airlines, the independent ultra-low-cost Canadian carrier has started flying with the first of 13 new Boeing 737-MAX 8 jets - same as the type in the two fatal crashes that saw the type grounded over safety issues for nearly two years. 

Flair is hoping that these new aircraft will help the fledgling airline achieve its rapid growth and help it make inroads into an already congested Canadian travel market.

 Stephen Jones, President and CEO, Flair Airlines said: “Today marks a huge milestone as Flair grows to bring affordable travel options to more Canadians.

Canadians have been paying too much for too long, and Flair is changing that thanks to the addition of the new 737-8 aircraft which provide us the efficiencies and ability to scale our service. Today’s inaugural flight kicks off our rapid growth.”

American Airlines to end printed inflight magazine after 55 years.....

The U.S. mega carrier American Airlines has been putting the American Way inflight magazine in seatbacks since 1966. But that rich, illustrious heritage is coming to an end,  the carrier has confirmed the current issue -  June,  will be the last in printed form.

Over the years the popular inflight magazine has been a ubiquitous presence on our aircraft, with thoughtful perspectives and cultural, lifestyle or travel-related feature articles. It was the mainstay of onboard entertainment, especially in the early years.  It has featured so many key writers over the decades and been the topic of conversation on many a long flight. Or provided respite from agonising delays and cramped seating, 

While the last issue of American Way, published by global travel media company Ink, is on planes now, the carrier has been focused on enhancing its inflight offerings to give customers the content they want most — and there is something for everyone:

A library of up to 600 movies and TV shows

A collection of more than 150 creative, productivity or language classes on American’s new Lifestyle inflight entertainment channel featuring Rosetta Stone and Skillshare content

Customers may continue to view entertaining travel content created in partnership with Ink

Wide range of kids’ content with new releases and classics, as well as options for our youngest travelers provided by BabyFirst and StoryBots

Live music and concert performances from top venues such as Austin City Limits

Meditation and relaxation exercises from Calm, a leader in content that helps users relax, sleep or become more mindful

Customers can stream the content on their own phone, tablet or laptop. Simply enable aeroplane mode and connect to the “AA-Inflight” signal. From there, the entertainment can be accessed from aainflight.com. 

It is a little sad, another nail in the coffin of heritage and another step away from the days when air travel was romantic and airlines cared about passengers. But,  it will save some paper and more to the point for American,  a lot of money. Plus, back in the old days, almost every passenger could be seen flicking through the pages of an inflight mag, if only to get to a bar menu or duty-free section, these days, far fewer passengers turn those, sometimes crinkled pages. Especially with the current pandemic situation, I guess folks are less likely to pick up something that's been well-thumbed by others and one does have to think more about the environment. But sometimes,  especially during longer flights, it's refreshing to take your eyes away from a small screen and look at something a little more old school, like a book or magazine.

Jazeera Airways heading to London

Kuwait based Jazeera Airways will be launching a weekly flight from its home base to London Heathrow from 18th June.

The airline that owns and operates its own terminal at Kuwait International Airport – Terminal 5 will operate the route on Friday's for the foreseeable future, however, it has plans to increase the service as soon as the current restrictions over COVID end.

The airline says its fares start at just KD 299 return and are available to book now, with the flights being conducted by fully vaccinated crews on Airbus A320neo aircraft.  

Chief executive Rohit Ramachandran said: “Our new service to Heathrow enables Jazeera Airways to cater to popular demand for flights to and from London, including demand from business travellers, Kuwaiti students and the large segment of accustomed tourists who we believe are more than eager to return to London this summer, many of whom own homes in the area.

As the vaccinations against the Covid-19 virus roll out in Kuwait and across the world, countries are opening their borders for a gradual return of summer traffic.”

Established in April 2004, Jazeera Airways is the first non-government owned airline in the Middle East, continuing to be one of the few Middle East-based private airlines to this day. The carrier serves up to 30 destinations with a reliable fleet of Airbus A320 and A320neo aircraft – all fitted with signature leather seats and two or three class cabins. 

KLM & BCG Extend Partnership for Digital Airline Operations

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) announced the extension of their partnership that was officially established in 2018 and was the first to launch on the market a suite of tools delivering integral planning and control for airline operations.

KLM and BCG’s approach to optimizing airline operations as a whole and at the same time, across time horizons and departmental silos, leverages a custom-built suite of digital tools paired with business transformation capabilities to ensure the tools are used daily by frontline staff in operations, crew, and hub control. Using machine learning, artificial intelligence, and advanced optimization techniques, the state-of-the-art digital solutions help the users optimize complex decisions relating to fleet, crew, ground services, and network, and deliver the best customer experience to passengers. To achieve results in just a few months and to avoid the need to commit to a platform solution that locks airlines in, these solutions don’t require replacing any core systems. The airlines’ IT teams are included in the journey from the start, and eventually, all systems are handed over to those teams.

Proven Results

oneworld, SkyTeam and Star Alliance Urge Universal Travel Standards

To facilitate the safe restart of international travel and restore the value contributed by travel and tourism to the world’s economy, the three global airline alliances oneworld, SkyTeam and Star Alliance are calling on G7 governments, at their upcoming leadership summit on 11-13 June, to agree on a common set of travel and health standards to enable the safe reopening of borders.

COVID-19 has significantly impacted the travel and tourism sector, which has long been a key contributor to many economies. A recent estimate by the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) showed that international tourism declined by around 80% in 2020. Prior to the pandemic, tourism contributed more than 4% of GDP for the average OECD country, with the World Travel and Tourism Council estimating up to 174 million jobs at risk globally.

In unison, the CEOs of the three global alliances – Kristin Colvile at SkyTeam, Rob Gurney for oneworld, and Jeffrey Goh of Star Alliance – said: “International air travel and tourism are vital to the global economy. With considerable data now available to support government decisions in managing risks, decisive action from G7 members to open borders and support clear, consistent, and data-driven measures, would remove uncertainty, particularly around testing and quarantine.”

Hopes Rise for Vaccinated Travelers in Europe, but Global Restart Still Stalled

Hopes Rise for Vaccinated Travellers in Europe, but Global Restart Still Stalled

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) welcomed the relaxation of COVID-19 border measures for vaccinated passengers, and the broader use of affordable antigen testing adopted by Spain and France. This is tempered by ongoing disappointment at the failure to implement harmonized measures across Europe and deep frustration at the lack of coordination among governments worldwide for a data-driven risk-managed approach to re-establishing the freedom to travel.

Spain opened its borders to most vaccinated travellers from around the world and allowed EU travellers to enter the country with a negative antigen test. Furthermore, passengers coming from low-risk countries (including the UK) can enter without any restrictions.

France opened to vaccinated travelers from all but those countries assessed as “high risk”. Vaccinated travelers from “medium-risk” countries will need to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 antigen or PCR test, and unvaccinated people must still self-isolate for seven days.

Lufthansa starts vaccination of employees in Germany

The German airline Lufthansa has begun vaccinating the first employees in Germany. In the first week, 2,000 vaccine doses will be available and can be administered by the Group’s Medical Service in Munich, Frankfurt and Hamburg. The initial focus is on those colleagues who have personal contact with customers, such as aircraft crews or employees at the stations.

Initially up to 2,000 weekly vaccinations will be available 

Michael Niggemann: “Lufthansa employees make important contribution to society.”

Crews and employees with personal customer contact receive vaccination offer first

“Since the beginning of the pandemic, our employees have also been making an important contribution to society. With our flight and cargo services, we give travellers the security of being able to perform socially or economically important tasks, for example. We are pleased to now be able to offer our employees a vaccination,” says Dr. Michael Niggemann, Chief Human Resources Officer Lufthansa Group.

Lufthansa recommends that its employees take advantage of the opportunity to be vaccinated.

A4E CEOs call for gradual lifting of all travel restrictions this summer

70% of EU population on track to receive first dose of COVID-19 vaccine by end of June, with nearly 25% fully vaccinated.

EU countries must swiftly restore freedom of movement for citizens and implement COVID Digital Certificate system without additional restrictions.

Testing & quarantines cannot become the ‘new norm’ in travel.

At the annual A4E Aviation Summit held virtually last week, apparently, due to the continued lack of EU coordination on COVID-19 travel restrictions, the forever moaning CEOs of Europe’s biggest airlines called on governments to restore freedom of movement for citizens and gradually lift all travel restrictions this summer, citing rising vaccination rates and tools such as the EU’s Digital COVID Certificate system, which is expected to be in place across the majority of EU Member States by 01 July.

“The science is clear that unrestricted, safe travel is possible for many intra-European flights already – and this will only increase as the vaccine rolls out further. We all have a responsibility, including European governments, to ensure that European travel is accessible and affordable for everyone – tests and certificates cannot become the new norm in travel”, said Johan Lundgren, CEO of easyJet and A4E’s 2021 Chair. 

Cathay Pacific Cargo shines in Customer Experience Survey from Air Cargo World

Cathay Pacific Cargo’s performance in 2020 has been recognised with two industry-wide high scores thanks to the readers of air logistics industry publication Air Cargo World. The airline received the high score of 4.8 out of 5.0 points across all airlines for availability and quality of specialty cargo operations, and took home the highest overall score, which had a strong showing from Asia-Pacific airlines, of 4.6 out of 5.0.

The Air Cargo Customer Experience analysis is based on findings from the Air Cargo Excellence Survey, which Air Cargo World has organised every year since 2005. Forwarders, cargo agents and third-party logistics providers are asked to nominate the best suppliers from the air-cargo industry. The final rankings are based on a rating system that ranks airlines, airports and other suppliers across a number of metrics, reflecting the views of air-cargo industry professionals.

Cathay Pacific Cargo came out top among Asia-Pacific carriers across several of these metrics, resulting in the outstanding carrier designation from Air Cargo World. Cathay Pacific also scored the highest among fellow Asia-Pacific carriers across several measures in the survey including “timeliness”, “available space”, “maindeck capacity”, “perishables”, and “network” along with its “specialty cargo” plaudit.

Making in-flight meals at home

I loved the story that was featured on BBC radio and news website today, about the self-confessed aviation geek Nik Sennhauser who decided to recreate airline meals at home as he and his husband miss international travel so much.

Singapore Airlines' Hainanese chicken and rice

Nik's version of the meal

Nik from Glasgow told Michelle McManus on BBC Radio Scotland he loved travelling so much that he'd think nothing of booking a weekend to America. "I once got a flight from Edinburgh to Boston for £150 return, - I took the Friday off and on Thursday after work got on a plane and flew there, had some lobster rolls and dipped my feet in the sea - and then got back on a plane."

Nik explained how his love of travel and aviation started when he was young, "I grew up between Thailand and Austria, so I spent a lot of my childhood on planes and in airports," he told the BBC. "My dad was working in Thailand for a multinational and we went to school in Austria, so every holiday, even if it was just for a weekend, we would fly to Bangkok to see dad. The plane was the one place I would eat food without questioning it. At home, my mum had to force me to eat vegetables and other foods."

Nik recalled the flights he'd take from Thailand to Europe were always at night,  "I found it fascinating that you got on a plane at two in the morning and an hour later someone came round and served you a three-course meal. - It was like a wee performance on the plane."

"It was like entertainment."

Stobart Air collapse forces Aer Lingus to axe most flights from Belfast City Airport.

The news that regional airline Stobart Air is being liquidated after failing to find a buyer has led to the Irish carrier Aer Lingus to axe almost all flights from Belfast City Airport to several key UK destinations. 

Services that have been cancelled include flights to Leeds Bradford, Edinburgh, Exeter, Manchester, East Midlands and Birmingham. Aer Lingus said that all of its customers affected by the cancellations were being offered details of an alternative flight "where feasible" and also have the option of a full refund. 

The Irish airline has also said that of the routes affected by Stobart's liquidation, Aer Lingus will operate five routes and for at least the next week and BA City Flyer would operate two. Flights from Belfast City Airport to London Heathrow will not be affected.

"Teams across Aer Lingus have been working through the night progressing alternative flying operations from tomorrow to provide a service for Aer Lingus Regional customers," the airline confirmed in a statement.  

Stobart Air operated some routes within the Republic of Ireland for Aer Lingus as well and it is understood that all flights on those routes have all been cancelled for the foreseeable future. 

Stobart Air operated a fleet of ATR42/72 and Embraer E190 aircraft and in addition to the franchise flying it did for Aer Lingus Regional, it also operated tailored ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance) wet-leasing services on both short and long term contracts.  It also provided private air charter flights for various customers including sports teams, tour operators, corporate firms and individual groups. 

According to reports, some 490 staff are affected, around 120 of those are said to be flight deck crew and the pilots union - Irish Air Line Pilots’ Association has confirmed it was assisting its members. 

Many in the industry expressed surprise at Stobart's collapse, however, the airline has been struggling in recent years. It had been involved in the failed attempt the resurrect for collapsed FlyBe under the Connect Airways brand along with Virgin and its parent company Esken. A number of poor management decisions in recent times had all had an impact on the airline plus the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic also took a great toll. As the carrier was about to lose its franchise contract with Aer Lingus (scheduled to end next year) financial problems with a possible buyer and Esken's refusal to pump more funds into Stobart Air meant there was little other option for the airline.

French aeronautical firms working to fly on 100% alternative fuel on single aisle aircraft end of 2021

Airbus, Safran, Dassault Aviation, ONERA and Ministry of Transport are jointly launching an in-flight study, at the end of 2021, to analyse the compatibility of unblended sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) with single-aisle aircraft and commercial aircraft engine and fuel systems, as well as with helicopter engines. This flight will be made with the support of the “Plan de relance aéronautique” (the French government‘s aviation recovery plan) managed by Jean Baptiste Djebbari, French Transport Minister.

Known as VOLCAN (VOL avec Carburants Alternatifs Nouveaux), this project is the first time that in-flight emissions will be measured using 100% SAF in a single-aisle aircraft.

MCR Purchases the Hilton Garden Inn Louisville Mall of St. Matthews in Derby City

MCR takes the lead! The country’s 4th-largest hotel owner-operator has acquired the 150-room Hilton Garden Inn Louisville Mall of St. Matthews in the heart of Kentucky.

Summer racing continues through Fourth of July weekend and a special Bourbon Heritage Month meet is scheduled in September. Fall racing runs from October until Thanksgiving weekend.

When it comes to Louisville lodging, back the right horse! The newly built Hilton Garden Inn features sleek furnishings, an indoor pool and a spacious lobby. Breakfast and a seasonal menu of favourites (flatbreads! burgers!) are cooked to order at the Garden Grille & Bar.
