"Aeroflot" buys "Transaero". Cause and effect.

 

News that the group of companies "Aeroflot" intends to acquire 75% stake in Russian airline "Transaero", literally shook the entire Russian civil aviation. Experts see this as not only a positive effect, but clearly negative factors that are not the best way affect the entire sphere.

 

 

Airline "Transaero"Is one of the largest air carrier in Russia, and despite the large amount of indebtedness to direct creditors, the air carrier managed to establish its effective activity in six months, gradually reducing the amount of debt. Nevertheless, the fleet of the air carrier has a large number of aircraft that make regular flights to dozens of destinations, carrying millions of people annually. Experts do not exclude that it was because of such factors that Aeroflot's board of directors drew attention to this carrier, however, after the final joining of Transaero to Aeroflot, experts believe that very big problems can begin.

 

The monopolization of services

 

According to preliminary estimates of specialists, as soon as Transaero becomes part of the Aeroflot group of companies, the passenger transportation market will be almost completely monopolized. According to the most conservative estimates, Aeroflot Group of Companies will control about 50% of the air transportation services market in the country. Dumping prices, a large deployed route network, as well as modern aircraft will be able to almost completely displace other air carriers from the market, most of which at the moment are already experiencing far from bright prospects.

 

 

Such actions on the part of "Aeroflot" in the future may lead to a definite increase in the price of air transport services, and given that the market will actually be monopolized, civil aviation of the Russian Federation may simply come into disrepair, although at the moment, is nothing more than a guess.

 

Huge reductions

 

 

Taking into account the fact that today Aeroflot and Transaero Airlines are the country's largest air carriers, and they often work on the same routes, it is worth assuming that the board of directors will want to provide the most positive effect from the air carrier's work, In connection with which, we should expect a reduction in flights on a number of routes, and as a consequence, a reduction in airline staff. Experts believe that the actual purchase of the airline Transaero will lead to its complete "dissolution", thus providing favorable conditions for the activities of only one air operator, which is typical for any market.

 

"Vyshibaniya" competition

 

 

Based on the fact that the sphere of influence of the Civil Code "Aeroflot" will be about 50% of the total market of services air traffic is expected that further activities will be aimed at the confusion existing competitors, and it is primarily these carriers as "UTair","VIM-Avia"And the like, which at the moment hardly remain afloat due to the crisis situation. Lower prices and an intensively developed route network will simply prevent underhanded companies from developing, as a result of which they will simply leave the service market, thereby expanding the scope of Aeroflot's services to 65-75%.

 

 

In fact, it's the same monopolization, but with a slightly different effect and characteristics.

 

Optimization of civil aviation

 

Nevertheless, some experts see in Aeroflot's purchase of Transaero and a positive effect, in particular, when controlling a large part of the market, it will be much easier for one air carrier to optimize existing routes and the entire sphere of civil aviation in Russia. Naturally, this will lead to an increase in the quality of services provided, a decrease in air ticket prices and an intensive development of the air carrier's route network, which in turn will only have a beneficial effect.

Whatever it was, I can only hope that the committed transactions will be effective, and bring in the Russian civil aviation greater positive effect than negative.

 

Kostyuchenko Yuriy specifically for Avia.pro

Transaero is the best company for the price of tickets and the quality of service in the sky and on the ground, the airline that flies at a time when others are sitting in portu.Ochen pity that good care and see for yourself that remains.
