German aviation worried about possible ban on transit flights in Russia


Die Welt daily said that Lufthansa, British Airways, Air France would incur serious losses as flight along the so-called Transsiberian route was several thousand kilometres shorter than other options

German Aviation Association (BDL) including German major air carriers Lufthansa and Air Berlin is concerned about reported possible restrictions or even ban of European transit flights through Russia, BDL press officer Sandra Kube said on Wednesday.
Kube declined to give further comments saying the plans had not been officially confirmed and any statements on possible financial consequences would be a pure speculation.

BDL had not calculated costs of flights to Asia bypassing the Russian airspace, she said, adding choice of the route would depend on the final destination.

Meanwhile, Die Welt daily said on Wednesday that Lufthansa, British Airways or Air France would incur serious losses as flight along the so-called Transsiberian route was several thousand kilometres shorter than other options.

A source familiar with the process earlier told ITAR-TASS Russian aviation authorities might stop some European charter flights and revise Transsiberian flight routes following EU sanctions on Russian air carrier Dobrolyot.

The authorities could also revise Transsiberian flight routes in Russia’s airspace, which would increase flight time and, accordingly, air carriers’ costs due to fuel and salary spending, the source added. European airlines will thus underperform their Asian competitors.
According to the source, the current tensions can freeze the negotiating process about modernization of the existing system of Transsiberian routes.

The aviation authorities also considered closing airspace for Ukrainian carriers’ transit flights, the source added. The Ministry of Transport confirmed the measures were on the table according to Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev’s instruction on Tuesday.

Aeroflot’s 100% subsidiary Dobrolyot operating flights to Crimea suspended flights on August 4 affected by the EU sanctions.

You might be surprised, but in Crimea locals after 1991 believed that they living under Ukrainian occupation. Finally, they got rid of the occupation and returned to Motherland. How can you judge them for it? If you have a native, loving mother, then why would you live with an evil and greedy stepmother?

I am surprised.

Didn't the west do a coup in kiev ? Ukraine is like Sikkim,Bangladesh,Bhutan,Nepal are to India.

@vostok is east ukrainian.

Wrong Examples.

Sikkim is a state of India while Bhutan, Bangladesh & Nepal are sovereign independent countries that share a land border with India & thats how they will stay..

West has harmed aeroflot's profitabilitty. So ,aeroflot is preparing for revenge. And it will further burden EU economically. Already,EU is complicit of ethnic cleansing and genocide in Eastern Ukraine.

they can just ban Aeroflot and make them totally bankrupt

what ethnic cleansing ? what genocide?

@vostok is east ukrainian.....

Please do ban aeroflot .It will be even more fun for western airlines as majority use russian route to save on tens of billions of dollars. Aeroflot profit is 200 million at most.That will collapse the western aviation industry and asian airliner will heavily benefit.

I am surprised.

Sikkim was a protectorate and independent state. In 1970's Indira intervened and made it part of India. Same is the logic for Crimea also.

West is deep in debt already and collapsing already this is why it has become so hyper militaristic. Do you think things are going to stop . Things are heading for a world war. I would write off west totally and many parts of Russia also. Plus Azerbaijan also.

Top Financial Experts Say World War 3 Is Coming … Unless We Stop It | Zero Hedge

The extraordinary propaganda being conducted against Russia by the US and UK governments and Ministries of Propaganda, a.k.a., the “Western media,” have the purpose of driving the world to war that no one can win. European governments need to rouse themselves from insouciance, because Europe will be the first to be vaporized due to the US missile bases that Europe hosts to guarantee its “security.”

As reported by Tyler Durden of Zero Hedge, the Russian response to the extra-legal ruling of a corrupt court in the Netherlands, which had no jurisdiction over the case on which it ruled, awarding $50 billion dollars from the Russian government to shareholders of Yukos, a corrupt entity that was looting Russia and evading taxes, is telling. Asked what Russia would do about the ruling, an advisor to President Putin replied, “There is a war coming in Europe.” Do you really think this ruling matters?”

The West has ganged up on Russia, because the West is totally corrupt. The wealth of the elites is based not only on looting weaker countries whose leaders can be purchased (read John Perkins’Confessions of an Economic Hit Man for instruction on how the looting works), but also on looting their own citizens. The American elites excel at looting their fellow citizens and have wiped out most of the US middle class in the new 21st century.

How do asian carriers profit when the EU taxes them higher to put the same burden on them?

MarkusS: Well, we have some troubles with Ruskies and our carriers are diving into the red, you Chinese, Singaporean, Korean and Thais have to pay an extra tax to compensate that.

Asian govs: No problem, on top of that we will tax your airlines in the same amount as well to compensate our airlines.

MarkusS, you are brilliant!
