P.S. I have uploaded the first part of the IATA Director General's address at the 66th IATA annual meeting in Berlin on the state of the industry and his vision for 2050.
The number of passengers is growing every year. As we can seen that, in 2005 the number of passengers was 2 billion traveling a year while the number of passengers last year increased steeply to 2.4 billion a year. Also we can see that the growth in freight volume as 43 million tons of cargo last year.
ReplyDeleteHowever, the reason for that growth is the development of airlines and airport. Nowadays the passengers find traveling easier and cheaper. For example, the low cost carriers (fly dubai FZ in Emirates). In addition, the development in airports in the Middle East that provide special runways for Airbus A380 landings and take offs.
New Doha International Airport that’s the government invest it by (QR 45 billion). And it will be the biggest airport in the Middle East.
Travelling became much easier for the passenger. 2.4 billion Passengers travelled using air in the world last year; this includes domestic and international passengers. One of the reasons which made travelling easier is the low cost carriers around the world. Only in the Middle East there are about 4 low cost flight companies, Fly Dubai Airlines, Air Arabia, Bahrain air and Al Jazeera airways. The development and growth of planes also made the number of passengers’ increase an example of this is the airbus A380 which can take over 500 passengers onboard as well as it became fuel efficient and quieter engine.
ReplyDeleteNew airports are being built to take millions of passengers yearly and if not new are built; airports are getting expansions and modernizations. To handle big numbers of passengers such as (NDIA) this will handle over 50 million passengers yearly. This Airport will cost 45Billion QR. Dubai international airport has opened a third terminal recently to take a greater number of passengers than before.
Some setbacks of this Aviation industry are natural disasters, diseases, terrorism and political unrests which make airports close and stop some flights if needed. Money losses appear in these situations. The Economic recession which happened before 2 years stopped people from travelling which also showed a decrease in the number of people travelling where loses accure.
Nowadays airports are the most important transfer point for the traveler. The number of passengers who are travelling by aircraft is growing up for example, 2.4 billion passengers travel last year (domestic and international passengers). Some passengers who are traveling in same country or to country is near from his country they prefer to travel by low-cost airline because those airlines are cheaper than others for instance, fly dubai (FZ), Air Arabia (9G) and Bahrain Air (BN), However all airlines in the world are cheaper and easier to travel than 50 years ago. At the same time the number of air-freight is growing to as like as passengers, last year the number of air-freight was 43 million tones.
ReplyDeleteTheir is a substantial growth in passenger number in a single year passed 2.4 billion for the first time and this includes domestic and international passengers .The reasons that make travelling easier is cheaper or low-cost carriers in the world for example, Fly Dubai(FZ) ,Air Arabia(9G), Bahrain Air(BN) these are the low cost flight companies. The development of planes that make better and bigger that increase the number of passengers and the example of this is the A380 that carry more than 500,000 of passengers.
ReplyDeleteThe government spend a lot of money to build a big airport and expansions that to handle a large number of passengers like (NDIA), so they spent QR45 billion. Also DXB opened the tired terminal to process a huge number of passengers.
In addition there are some setbacks of this Aviation industry are natural disasters(volcano), diseases, terrorism, political and worst economic recession so, these things make to close the airport and stop flights also the number of passengers became less where lose accurse.
Finally, I think to develop in the future it will make safely and easy flight.
Aviation industry are changing in this recent years, because the development in the airport and aircraft. It is one of the most important transportation in the world. The passenger’s numbers are increasing and it reached 2.4 billion passengers international and domestic last year. Also the growth in freight volume that reached 43 million tonnes last year.
ReplyDeleteThe aircraft design has been developed that will help carrying lots of passengers like the airbus A380 that carry about more than 800 passengers. There are also the low-cost carriers that famous in the Middle East for example, (flydubai (FZ), Air Arabia (9G), Bahrain (BN)…) that most passengers use it for short-haul flight. The constructions and expansions in the airports that will help receive more passengers and any size of aircraft, Like the New Doha International Airport in Qatar that will open in 2011 in the national day.
The aviation industry has experienced lots of problems that what make them to develop the aviation industry to not happen again. For example, terresim in 9\11, natural disaster like the volcano ash in Iceland that stopped the most airlines in Europe, political unrest and economic recession. Now the IATA CEO thinking for the future of the aviation that the airport will have very high security, the self check-in that will process the passengers faster and easier and maybe the development in aircraft will be pilotless an automatic pilot.
Travelling by plane has become the most popular way of transportation in today's world. 2.4billions passengers travelled by plane last year and that mean the number of passenger is increasing every year because travelling by airplane is faster ,cheaper and safer than ever before.
ReplyDeleteNowadays there are low cost airline for example fly Dubai (FZ), Air alarabi (9W) and Bahrain air (BN). In this time they spend more money to built the airport and be the best like in Qatar (NDIA) new Doha International Airport and it cost 45billions QR and this airport can land there any plane like A380.

As we know that the fastest transportation in the world is the aircraft and maybe in the near Future it will be the safest. According to IATA report there is only one accident every 140 million flights comfortable to traveling by planes.
ReplyDeleteAviation industry in my opinion it’s the busiest and the importunes industry in the whole world because the number of passengers continues to increase year by year and it become cheaper ,faster and safer because they making more and huge planes for example the airbus A380 which can take over 500 passengers.
In 2005 the number of passengers was 2 billion by year but last year it increase steeply to 2.4 million which, one of the mine reasons for this increase is the low cost flight companies. There are only 4 companies in the middle east, Fly Dubai Airlines, Air Arabia, Bahrain air and Al Jazzeri airways.
