New interline and codeshare agreements between Air France-KLM and SAS will come into operation on 1-Sep-2024. The agreement will also include reciprocal loyalty scheme benefits and will coincide with the entry of SAS into the SkyTeam alliance. The new commercial partnership follows the deal agreed in Oct-2023 under which Air France-KLM is to take a 19.9% equity stake in SAS, alongside the lessor/investment firm Castlelake (32% stake), the Danish State (25.8%), and Lind Invest (8.6%). Currently, Air France-KLM's network airline capacity trails Lufthansa Group and IAG's. Adding the capacity of SAS closes the gap and considerably adds to its European network footprint, particularly in northern Europe. SAS, which will also join SkyTeam, has been restructuring since 2020 and is now on a more secure footing. As Air France-KLM is taking only a minority stake, the benefits to both sides will derive from the close commercial partnership.

Aer Lingus has posted an operating profit of €92m for the second quarter of this year. While that figure was up from an operating loss of €82m for the first three months of this year, it was down by €29m when measures on a year-on-year basis 📉 Aer Lingus’ latest quarterly financial results – published by parent group IAG – also highlight a €55m approximate financial cost directly caused by the loss of business due to the high profile pilots dispute in July 🔎 Aer Lingus said it is assessing the implications of the financial damage caused by the dispute in the context of the current competitive environment and the passenger cap at Dublin Airport. This will include a review of the weaker parts of the airline’s network and its cost base 💸 #ITTNGroup #ITTNSwitchedOn

IAG Terminates Acquisition Of Air Europa

Over the past couple of days, key members of the BGS team attended the 𝐈𝐀𝐓𝐀 𝐀𝐯𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐮𝐦 in Vienna, Austria 🇦🇹 , where we met with over 30 clients spanning multiple airlines and fuel suppliers. One of the major talking points from the conference was the supply of SAF fuel to EU airports from 2025, aligning with the "ReFuelEU Aviation” initiative. We also informed our clients about our plans for SAF fuel delivery in the Baltic region. From 2025, aviation fuel that’s sold will need to contain a minimum of 2% SAF molecules if the airport's passenger traffic exceeds 0.8 million passengers or freight traffic exceeds 100,000 tons during the reporting period. This will be BGS's responsibility to ensure in the future and a challenge we are coordinating with just 6 months to go ahead of adoption. 😉 With key industry changes imminent, our future plans, current business challenges, and solutions to improve efficiency were also hot topics, with the fuel tender process a priority for us. It’s been an extremely productive few days and we’d like to say a big thanks to both the organizers and the industry delegates in attendance. 👏 Vitalis Dudys Vytautas Čekanavičius Marius Grigaliūnas #BGS #IATAAviationEnergyForum #GroundHandling #Aviation

Another fantastic update from #MAG and great to see the progress to date. #BakerHicks #BIM #BIMManagement #Revizto

There is an array of aspects that one must address when the decision has been made to acquire a private jet. Again, and as always, I believe the mission is the top priority. Again and again I hear brokers saying that "what's your budget" is the first question... budget is important, but it should be a considered conversation. Here, again, is a wonderful example of what can be done with an older aircraft, in this case a 2002 Global Express, with a re-fit by the extraordinary people at VIP Completions (I have no affiliation with VIP, they simply do a very good job, and are very good at marketing their services). The interior and passenger ammenities are, however, only one piece of the puzzle. By working with us you ensure that you get the aircraft that you want, not what a specific broker has on their books to sell you. You get the crew you need, not one made up of uninterested and potentially unprofessional aviators. The crew gets the avionics package that gives them the ability to service your needs, safely and efficiently. The funding, if necessary, is built for you. The management works for you, with your crew, to deliver the operational flexibility that was the reason you decided to acquire private jet in the first place. Factors that are as important separately, as they are in concert. And stop apologising for your success. You've earned the right to move as you choose, in the manner and fashion that you demand, without apologies or explanations.
