Air transport has regained its previous colours, and the results for 2024 will be historic, even if the wall of 5 billion passengers and 1,000 billion in revenue will not be broken this year. It will probably be very close. And the growth continues without us knowing very well where it will stop. Gulf airlines […]
Air travel was built on two fundamental principles: first, to move passengers and cargo from one point of the world to another safely. This is what he has managed to do, because he strives for excellence. Plane crashes and even incidents are becoming increasingly rare. In 2023, scheduled airlines recorded only one fatal accident: Yeti […]

Air travel is full of ups and downs, even though it has grown almost steadily at 5% per year since the end of the Second World War. It was built by airlines that developed an international system of cooperation between carriers and relentless search for safety, well helped by manufacturers and managing authorities of this […]
They were said to be obsolete, too expensive to operate, too CO² consuming, and too old, in short, they had all the defects. For decades, they were the only ones that could be operated on distant destinations. To cross the oceans, twin-engine aircraft needed an ETOPS rating (Extended-range Operations by Twin-Engine airplanes), i.e., the number […]
Let’s assume that we are out of the nightmare of the pandemic since China has just dropped its barriers. It is the last country after being the first to close its borders. Vaccines are effective and the vast majority of populations are now protected. And finally, air transport is not doing so badly, and we […]

First of all, let us welcome the agreement between Qatar Airways and Airbus in the dispute between them following the deterioration of the paint of the A350s delivered to the Gulf carrier. Without this “happy ending,” it was more than likely that the war between the two behemoths would have enriched only law firms for […]

Italian air transport is still coveted, but all attempts to control it have so far failed. In fact, this mainly concerns international traffic because domestic transport has passed into the hands of “low cost” companies, first and foremost Ryanair followed by EasyJet. All this because the national company has not been able to defend its […]

I found Willie Walsh’s latest outing about airports shocking, accusing them of indecently increasing their fares to compensate for the damage caused by COVID-19. I understand that it is not pleasant for airlines to have to pay more for the same services as before the pandemic, but the situation at airports must also be taken […]
