Many customers flying domesticairlines recognize Transaero as one of the major players in the world of transportation. Crisis moments touched her back in 2014. The management of the company requested financial support from the government, but the expected assistance was not received. Creditors expressed their disagreement with the further restructuring of the debt, for this reason the company was in the center of a scandal. Is Transaero really bankrupt? This issue concerns many passengers.
The fall of this company may be goodmany competing companies, because the collapse of "Transaero" will entail tremendous changes in the airline market. But the fact that the bankrupt - Transaero, will not have the best effect on ordinary citizens.
From the statement of Prime Minister Medvedev followsthat the main cause of the problems was the purchase of too many aircraft. Extra costs were incurred at the time of significant growth, the miscalculation was precisely this.
Wreck "Transaero"
Неразумная финансовая политика компании привела her to fall. She was denied a state guarantee. The leadership of the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Economics did not adopt a program to overcome the crisis situation. As a result of these actions, Transaero was left without any support. Hope to get out of the situation was associated only with an improved market economy, but this, unfortunately, did not happen.
Moment of market reorientation
Leading analysts of "Gazprombank" triedpredict future prospects and ways of development of the domestic air transport market. From their analysis it follows that after the official departure of Transaero, large Russian companies will successfully divide the vacated part of the niche among themselves.
Aeroflot can sense significantthe influx of passengers. The share of state-owned companies account for 37% of the total passenger traffic, after the self-destruction of a competitor, this figure could increase to 50%. The second major airline, which will benefit from this situation, is S7. This company will be able to increase its passenger traffic up to 12%. The last in the top three players will be "UTair" with a market volume of 10%.
Due to the fall in the total volume of passenger traffic by as much as 5%, there was an excess of airways. After the termination of Transaero’s activities, stability will come to the market.
Possible consequences for fellow citizens
После того, как рынок покинет банкрот Transaero, ordinary customers should expect an increase in tariffs in all directions, which will positively affect the level of profitability of many air carriers. All this is expected in the near future.
Директор "Трансаэро" Виталий Савельев в одном из The interview stated that affordable air tickets are no longer to be expected. The head of this monopoly clarified that there are no obvious prerequisites for reducing the cost of tickets. There is only one company on the market that sells tickets at reduced prices - this is Victory. As explained by the director of Transaero, if many carriers start lowering their rates, they will suffer losses, and the fate of the bankrupt may happen again.
From the official statement of the expert AlexeyKomarov follows that with the uneven redistribution of flights carried out by Transaero, Aeroflot can get a significant share of the monopoly of this market segment. After that, the cost of tickets for major international flights may increase, which will serve as a strong blow to the tourist business, and so in a state of crisis.
The company has lost ticket sales
On December 1, Rosaviatsia decided to issue to the management of Transaero an official order to terminate the sale of tickets. In the summer, the company reduced prices in many areas. Passengers "Transaero" very concerned about the situation with its debts. Since no financial institution has recognized its bankruptcy, Rosaviatsia cannot officially stop selling tickets.
Деньги за билеты "Трансаэро" возвращать не будет, and another major player, Aeroflot, will carry out the flights. The decision to restrict the sale of tickets to the company has been made; it will be conducted through the Transmission Clearing House. This resolution will be in effect until Aeroflot’s management changes the company’s management. At this moment, passengers will be able to see on the board information that Transaero’s flight has been canceled. Upon cancellation of flights, a refund of the spent funds to passengers must be made.
Huge losses of the company
For the past 2015, the amount of losses of the airlinerose to a huge amount - about 18.9 billion rubles. But the net profit came in the amount of 13.1 billion rubles. From these figures it follows that the company went into a minus for a whole year of work. Many employees of Transaero were without prestigious work. This is due to the fact that the current passenger transportation program did not bring the company anything but costs. Transaero’s current employees are worried about the future of their company, as many banks have begun to actively demand repayment of debts. She has a large number of lenders, many of whom she owes a decent amount. The total amount of Transaero debt, together with leasing, is 250 billion rubles. Litigation with creditors and the proceedings around this company continue. Many credit organizations seek to obtain their funds in court. The list of major creditors of the airline includes Sberbank, VTB, Gazprombank, IFC.
Promotions "Transaero"
In September 2015, the government receiveda directive calling for Aeroflot to acquire a stake in Transaero in the amount of 75%; the cost of one such unit did not exceed one ruble. But for some reason, Aeroflot refused the proposed offer.
Next month, Transaero’s shares rose by17%. According to preliminary data, S7 shareholders intend to acquire 19% of the total share package. The average cost per 1 security reached 11 rubles. After completing this transaction, S7 plans to file a petition with the Anti-Monopoly Service in order to confirm it.
The fate of the company today
The current fate of the sinking in debt of the air carrierTransaero was decided at the level of the head of state. The President clearly identified those responsible for the financial difficulties of the company. At the heart of this situation are issues related to the methods of conducting the economic and financial policies of the company. The crises that emerged in the economy played a decisive role in the development of this situation.
The main priorities were identified inwith regard to this company: in the near future to complete the transportation of passengers, to solve the issues of employment of the current staff - pilots, navigators, flight attendants and other personnel still working in the airline. In the near future, many will see the inscription on the board: “Transaero”: the flight has been canceled. ”Aeroflot and the S7 group will share all existing directions and domestic transport between them.
Special labor exchange in support of former Transaero employees
Подобная биржа создается в поддержку оставшегося without work staff. Earlier it was reported that Aeroflot is ready to accept 3,100 people to its state. Now it is reported about the readiness to accept only 2.8 thousand flight attendants. Transaero employees will continue their professional activities.
Этот авиаперевозчик претендует на некоторые рейсы of international importance. The head of state was asked to grant Aeroflot the right to state support as the main performer of the majority of Transaero’s obligations. Aeroflot has previously announced that it is the main contender for a certain market share, not counting on any cash guarantee. But this announcement did not prevent him from demanding a compensation of 5 billion rubles from Transaero. judicially.
Farewell, bankrupt Transaero!
The whole procedure of measures for the rehabilitation and transition of the companyunder the control of "Aeroflot" in time will take a little more than six months. All this may require a revision of the existing model of domestic air travel. The observance of all agreements during the process of their unification will be closely monitored by the administration of the head of state, together with the current government. This famous brand disappears, leaving healthy Aeroflot with all its internal resources. Such a decision is quite rational, because the symbols and target audience of these 2 companies are almost the same. So why not leave the strongest of them? This is quite logical and reasonable. And how many more such cases will throw the crisis, it remains only to assume.
