It will give <keyword id="6359180" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="sia" source="Orion">SIA</keyword> a 25.1 per cent stake in the enlarged Air India group following its takeover by Tata and merger with <keyword id="2468721" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="vistara-airlines" source="Orion">Vistara Airlines</keyword>. The November 2022 deal between Singapore Airlines and Tata Sons to further inject USD 267 million into Air India is one of the key strategic initiatives for future growth mentioned in the quarterly financial report. This agreement is still subject to regulatory approval. SIA in the statement said, "The merged entity will be four to five times larger in scale compared to <keyword id="2467342" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="vistara" source="Orion">Vistara</keyword>, with a strong presence in all key airline segments in India. The proposed merger will bolster SIA's presence in India, strengthen its multi-hub strategy, and allow it to continue participating directly in this large and fast-growing aviation market." The airline further said, "Deeper collaboration with like-minded airlines is an integral part of the SIA Group's partnerships strategy. This enables SIA and its partners to drive more traffic to their hubs, offer more options to customers, and increase the Group's global footprint." Last week, Singapore Airlines (SIA) announced that net profit for Q3 which ended in December, came in at Singapore dollar (SGD) 628 million (USD 465 million) and financial year-to-date profits touched SGD 1,555 million (USD 1,152 million). They are the highest the airline has ever earned in a quarter as well as for the first nine months of a financial year. The airlines said in a statement that this is due to "the robust demand for air travel continuing into the third quarter of FY2022/23, building on the momentum that began after Singapore relaxed its border restrictions in April 2022." SIA financial year starts in April. This comes on the back of Singapore's announcement that from February 13, it will relax all remaining Covid restrictions for travellers as well as locals. Travellers who are not fully vaccinated against Covid will no longer need to show proof of a negative pre-departure test before entering Singapore and do not need to buy travel insurance to cover Covid treatment if they fall ill on the island. Those who are vaccinated no longer need to show proof on arrival. The use of a face mask on public transport which was the last remaining local Covid-era protocol is no longer mandatory as of the same date. Singapore was one of the first Asian countries to reopen after the Covid pandemic and that has aided its tourism industry along with its national carrier. Besides government grants to affected industries during Covid, the airline was the beneficiary of its shareholders and financial institutions' confidence in its business as it managed to raise SGD 22.4 billion (USD 16.6 billion) during Covid including SGD 15 billion from shareholders (largest of which is state investment firm Temasek Holdings) through sales of shares and convertible bonds. As of December 2022, it still holds a cash balance of SGD 15.4 billion. This allowed it to keep most of its staff and fleet and facilitated restoration of routes quickly once travel resumed. This was unlike other regional airlines which had to let staff go and sell aircraft to keep afloat.SIA reported that its group passenger capacity reached 80 per cent of pre-Covid levels in December 2022, higher than the average of 51 per cent for the Asia-Pacific region. Its two main airline brands carried 7.4 million passengers in the third quarter, up 17 per cent from the second quarter. When added to the first two quarters, the SIA Group served 18.8 million passengers for the first nine months of the financial year. This is a nine-fold increase from a year earlier (2021) when most of the world's borders were still closed. Passenger load factors for the Group improved by 0.8 percentage points to 87.4 per cent, the highest for any quarter, on the back of record load factors for both premium airline, SIA (87.3 per cent) and low-cost carrier, Scoot (87.8 per cent). SIA reported that its cargo performance moderated compared to the previous quarter due to softening demand, as well as an increase in belly hold capacity as more passenger aircraft returned to service globally. While yields were weaker quarter-on-quarter, they remained elevated -- almost double -- compared to pre-Covid levels. Overall, SIA's revenue for the three months to December rose SGD 358 million (USD 265 million), an 8 per cent quarter-on-quarter increase to SGD 4,846 million (USD 3,589 million), a record. Passenger-flown revenue increased by 14 per cent or SGD 463 million to SGD 3,767 million as traffic grew 12.2 per cent for the quarter, outpacing the 11.1 per cent expansion in capacity. Revenue per available seat-kilometre (RASK) was 10.6 Singapore cents, the highest quarterly RASK in the Group's history. Cargo flown revenue fell 14.1 per cent or SGD 141 million (USD 104 million) to SGD 862 million (USD638 million), with the lower yields which were down 14.6 per cent partially mitigated by a slight uptick in loads, up 0.6 per cent. Expenditure increased 7.4 per cent or SGD281 million (USD208 million) quarter-on-quarter to SGD 4,091 million (USD 3,030 million). This comprised an SGD 371 million (15.5 per cent) rise in non-fuel expenditure that was partly offset by an SGD 90 million decrease (-6.3 per cent) in net fuel cost. The increase in non-fuel expenditure was higher than the increase in capacity, mainly driven by higher foreign exchange losses of SGD 194 million (USD 144 million) recorded at the end of the current quarter with the US dollar weakening 6.1 per cent against the Singapore dollar. Net fuel cost fell to SGD 1,333 million (USD 987 million) mainly due to a 13 per cent drop in fuel prices. This was partly offset by higher volumes uplifted (+USD 103 million) and lower fuel hedging gain (+USD 19 million).

Singapore Airlines to get 25.1% stake in enlarged Air India group

New Delhi, Feb 19 () Full service carrier <keyword id="2467342" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Vistara">Vistara</keyword> plans to offer in-flight broadband service on certain international routes by March-end after <keyword id="8801436" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="inducting-dreamliners">inducting Dreamliners</keyword> and Airbus 321 planes, a senior airline official said on Wednesday. A joint venture between Tatas and <keyword id="6368386" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="singapore-airlines">Singapore Airlines</keyword>, Vistara has tied up with Tata group firm Nelco to offer in-flight connectivity service. Vistara would also be the first domestic carrier to provide in-flight braodband for fliers. Boeing 787 aircraft are known as Dreamliners. The airline would offer access to in-flight connectivity only on Dreamliners and Airbus 321 aircraft on international routes, Vistara Chief Strategy Officer Vinod Kannan told reporters here. The service would also be available for domestic customers when these planes are operated in the Indian airspace. Nelco has partnered with Panasonic Avionics Corporation to start the service. "We have ordered Dreamliners and A321 which will be delivered by February-end or March. We will start their commercial operations on international routes by March-end or April with in-flight service on board. "In the next two weeks, we will sit with Nelco and Panasonic to decide on the price," Kannan said. Vistara has ordered six Dreamliners and ten A321 planes. In-flight broadband service would be made available on all these aircraft. "We will get four Dreamliners and two A321 aircraft this year. By end of 2021, we will be offering in-flight connectivity in 10 aircraft," Kannan said. According to him, a decision on offering the service in domestic flights would also depend on routes where Dreamliners and A321 aircraft would fly. "We will initially look at offering broadband service. We have not decided on offering voice calls," Kannan said. Nelco MD and CEO P J Nath said the capability to provide both broadband and voice services would exist. It would depend on airline partners on the way they would like to package the services, he added. "We are delighted that Nelco is spearheading in providing the long awaited Aero in-flight connectivity services in the country. Vistara is first airline to sign up for this service," Nath said. Panasonic Avionics Corporation Vice President Tom Eskola said passengers would be able to access the service even at a height of 35,000 feet. "We currently cover 99.6 per cent of routes on which aircraft fly. We are also migrating our system to generation 3 from generation 1. Vistara will have access to our generation 3 system when they start operation which will offer high speed broadband service during flight as they get on ground," Eskola said.

The spill caused her to suffer second-degree burns, the child's mother said on X, formerly known as Twitter. Rachna Gupta, the child's mother, said in<a href="https://twitter.com/GuptaRachna76/status/1690430924721414144" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> a series of posts </a>that her daughter had asked a flight attendant for two cups of hot chocolate on a flight from New Delhi, India, to Frankfurt, Germany. But when the flight attendant opened the service tray, one of the cups spilled on her daughter."An unfortunate accident poorly handled . Vistara hostess didn't apologize , captain or crew members didn't apologize . After basic first aid on flt my daughter and I were left in an ambulance," Gupta wrote in a post on August 13. <a href="https://twitter.com/GuptaRachna76/status/1690430924721414144" target="_blank" rel="noopener"></a>Gupta said she had to pay for her daughter's ambulance in Germany, and that Vistara only offered her "a standard scripted apology."

"As per our established protocols, our crew promptly administered first aid for the spillage and enlisted the assistance of an onboard paramedic, who volunteered to aid until the flight landed in Frankfurt," Vistara said in the statement, adding that the airline has been in contact with Gupta and arranged their flight back to India.In a statement to Insider, Vistara said Gupta's daughter "sustained injuries due to spillage of hot beverage on the body.""Our cabin crew had served hot chocolate to the child on the request of her parents, however, the hot water spilled on her since the child was playful during the service and her hand accidentally hit the tray that caused toppling of the mug," Vistara added.Vistara, a joint venture between Indian company Tata and Singapore Airlines, is no stranger to controversy. In June last year, Bloomberg reported that Vistara used <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-06-02/untrained-pilots-landed-a-passenger-jet-in-india-risking-lives" target="_blank" rel="noopener">untrained pilots to fly its planes</a>, which resulted in a fine of one million rupees, or around $12,000.Gupta did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

This may sound little bizarre but it is true. Airfares were cheapest this year in 2015 as compared to last three years. 
 
As per airlines and travel firms, ticket prices were 40 per cent cheaper when compared to past three years. 
 "The reason for this is primarily two - the decline in fuel costs being passed on to passengers and the advent of new carriers which has led to an increase of supply in airline seats as well as competition," Amit Taneja, chief revenue officer at <keyword id="132652" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Cleartrip">Cleartrip</keyword> told ET. 
 
According to the Cleartrip survey, average annual ticket prices for the current financial year ranged between Rs 5,857 and Rs 4,018. 
 
In past few years, airliners have been aggressively rolling out deals to attract fliers. According to a survey by GoEuro, Indian local ticket prices as a fraction of what is charged in Finland, Switzerland, Austria and Estonia, apart from much-developed markets such as the US and UK. 
 From <keyword id="6358032" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="SpiceJet">SpiceJet</keyword> to <keyword id="2467342" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Vistara">Vistara</keyword>, airlines changed tracks to gain more consumers and fill their flights. 
 
Another factor why airlines lowered prices was cost of jet fuel. The per kilolitre rate at Delhi airport, India's busiest, is currently 26 per cent cheaper than December last year, 40 per cent cheaper than 2013 and 34 per cent cheaper than 2012.

Former employees of the defunct carrier <keyword id="6373962" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kingfisher-Airlines">Kingfisher Airlines</keyword> are applying for jobs at soon-to-be launched <keyword id="2467342" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Vistara">Vistara</keyword> airline, a 51:49 joint venture between Tata Goup and Singapore Airlines. 
	 
	“The counsel for Kingfisher Airline has told us that since the airline has not been operating, no revenue has been generated and hence they cannot pay us. It is good news for us that Vistara is coming up because most of us have joined the new airline,” said a former employee of the beleaguered carrier. 
	 Apart from Tata-Singapore Airlines's Vistara, many have also joined <keyword id="6354706" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indigo">Indigo</keyword>. “Both these airlines have Airbus 320 and since KFA had a fleet of Airbus 320, therefore, these suit us,” added the employee. 
	 
	It’s worth noting that Kingfisher airline has not paid its employees since 2012 and made promises of disbursal of salaries on several occasions. A section of the distressed employees have also submitted a plea in the Karnataka High Court for releasing the funds deposited with the court as a security. The employees had requested the Court to allow the management to access Rs 220 crore from the security (Rs 250 crore) deposited with the court, which came from UBHL stake sale to Diageo. 
	 
	Earlier this year, the employees also wrote to the labour Commission for the disbursal of the salary. Vijay Mallya was summoned by the chief labour commissioner to discuss the issue of unpaid salaries of the employees. 
	 
	Tata Group and Singapore Airline’s Vistara was scheduled to launch this month, however, aviation regulator Directorate General of Civil Aviation, has not yet issued the Scheduled Operator Permit to the airline. The airline took the delivery of its first aircraft Airbus-320 last month.

Fuel prices and fickle passengers aside, start-up airlines in the country must contend with a truly suffocating piece of government regulation that hinders their growth.
Although Indian tech start-ups seem to be doing well, start-ups in most other sectors generally face an uphill battle against protectionist policies and a highly corrupt government. 
As flying goes, India's domestic routes are crowded with too many airlines competing for too few routes that can sustain a profit. As a result, no Indian airline actually makes substantial profit from domestic flying. 
However, in order for an Indian airline to be able to fly lucrative international routes, they must adhere to the 5/20 rule which require them to have been in business for at least five years and have a fleet of at least 20 aircraft. 
As a result, opponents of the rule argue that it has shielded the country's two international carriers, state-owned Air India and Jet Airways from start-up competition. Recently, Amber Dubey, head of aerospace at KPMG in India, told the <a href="http://www.business-standard.com/article/specials/five-year-ops-20-aircraft-rule-may-be-scrapped-114030301249_1.html" target="_blank">Business Standard </a>that the rule was anachronistic, anticompetitive and discriminatory. 
<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table click-to-enlarge"><div><div class="image on-image"><a title_source="REUTERS/Amit Dave" title_caption="Jet Airways Boeing 737 landing in Ahmedabad" class="zoomin" href="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/53f65f84ecad045f58f34f7a-960/jet-airways-boeing-737-landing-ahmedabad.jpg"></a>REUTERS/Amit DaveJet Airways Boeing 737 landing in Ahmedabad</div></div></div>In a <a href="http://www.capaindia.com/PDFs/India_International_Market.pdf" target="_blank">recent report</a>, the CAPA Center for Aviation called the 5/20 rule "one of the most damaging and discriminatory regulations in India."
Since the rule doesn't apply to foreign carriers, international airlines have benefited greatly from the lack of internal competition. Airlines like Lufthansa, British Airways, and Virgin Atlantic have solidified their hold on highly profitable flights connecting Europe and North America with the Indian subcontinent. 
The 5/20 rule doesn't just hold down plucky entrepreneurs, it's also stands in the way of investment from major corporations that seek to improve both the product and infrastructure of India's aviation sector. In the same report, CAPA cited the rule as a contributing cause for the 2012 liquidation of UB Group's highly rated Kingfisher Airlines.

Set to launch this October, the new carrier run by the country's most prominent corporation and the world's best airline, will be beset with the same challenges that held back previous entrants like Kingfisher.
Fortunately for Vistara, there has been a recent push within the government for the rule's abolition. However, no substantial plans for the rule's review has occurred. But if India wants to see its airline industry follow the example of the developing world, it may want to study the success of JetBlue, Virgin Atlantic, and Virgin America - and give the country's startups more room to maneuver.
