Turkish Airlines "ready to resume B&H talks"


The Prime Minister of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Denis Zvizdić, has said Turkish Airlines is ready to resume talks with the government concerning the future of the country's flag carrier. After revealing Turkish's renewed interest in B&H Airlines last week, Mr Zvizdić said the carrier is willing to explore new models of commercial cooperation. "They are prepared for such negotiations to resume and to determine new models of cooperation. I am certain that talks between Turkish Airlines and the Federation government will resume soon and that they will head in the right direction", the Prime Minister said. For its part, Turkish Airlines told EX-YU Aviation News it is "unable to make any comment on this issue for the moment". It added, "As Turkish Airlines, for any major issue to become definite, we have to first inform the Istanbul Stock Exchange in advance".

In late 2008, Turkish Airlines took over a 49% share in B&H. By May 2010 it provided the airline its first jet-engine aircraft, a Boeing 737-400, allowing it to launch flights to Vienna, Prague, Berlin, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Gothenburg and Dusseldorf. However, this hasty expansion led to the termination of flights to Prague and Berlin due to poor interest. Similarly, newly introduced flights to Podgorica were also cancelled. In 2010 the B737-400 was replaced with an Airbus A319. The airline continued to expand with new flights to Amsterdam, Belgrade and Zagreb, with the latter two cancelled shortly after. In 2011, the airline cancelled its flights to Vienna, Dusseldorf, Stockholm and Gothenburg. The relationship between Turkish Airlines and the Bosnian government deteriorated at the start of 2012 with the A319 taken back by Turkish Airlines, leading to the suspension of its popular Amsterdam route and the grounding of an ATR 72. Turkish relinquished its share in B&H in the summer of 2012 citing disagreements with the government. At the time it said, "Bosnia does not care for B&H Airlines. This was a big disappointment for us. The main reason for the current state of the airline is a complete lack of interest and understanding”.

The former Minister for Transport in the Federation government, Enver Bijedić, says, "I cannot guess what their intentions are this time around but they [Turkish Airlines] made a lot of bad decisions when they were in charge. They probably want to park themselves at Sarajevo Airport in order to secure their position at an appealing European destination [Sarajevo] so they can cover a part of Europe from there". Altan Buyukyılmaz, who Turkish Airlines appointed as B&H's CEO is now the Executive Vice President at Turkish Airlines Technic. B&H Airlines suspended all operations last summer after accumulating significant amounts of debt. Bankruptcy proceeding began last month.

    The only way BH could work is if they could sell 100% of the airline. They can't do that with Turkish so the Turks bet prepare for the same old if they take over.

      We can assume that they learned their lesson of dealing with the Bosnian government and that the new agreement would have many more safeguards for them than the one before. And this time around the government will probably be paying Turkish to have some stake in B&H.

      If I were the Bosnia and Herzegovina's government I'd let the Turkish Airlines take over a minimum percentage of 51% to a complete take-over of 100% due to the government's zero amount of interest and no responsibility taken over the B&H Airlines. Their colapse and this non-operational stage is entirely on the government. It's their fault the national carier stopped operating. The only way out is to let the Turks take the airline and make anything possible of it just to keep it wings for now. Better that than no Airline. Who agrees?

      True. I said that they should go to

      4. Delta
      5. China Eastern
      6. China Southern

      16. Aegean
      17. Saudia
      18. Lufthansa
      19. Garuda

      So, for me Lufthansa was the last real company they should go to.

      But, in Croatia there is only one option - Germany. Sell them everything and ask them for everything. If you need to toilet you should call Angela Merkel and ask her for permission.

      And to approach Lufthansa in this moment when they have strikes almost every month trying to cut workers rights and it was stupid to think Lufthansa will in same time spend several millions to buy some unimportant company and make their workers even more mad ("you have money to buy some stupid many-lost company but don't have money for basic rights we already have?"). Also to sell Croatia to Lufthansa which will make from it Eurowings Croatia + new Dolomiti is the worst possible option.

      And there are so many better options. But for them you have to look little further than Germany (and change your status of mind) and to work so much more (to present benefits/possibilities and to find options to satisfied those exotic far away companies). And why to work if it is not necessary and if you even don't know those companies exist and what is the situation in real World. Let me just mention that previous Minister (when I had meeting with him) even did not know that we are in alliance with Lufthansa, what was the name "of that Hungarian company that went bankrupt and is good example to us" and that he is flying to Brussels with this plane that has "fans" on wings and goes "brrrrrrrr" (Q400). And one should discuss with this kind of man about Etihad/Qatar, Hainan etc?!?!?!

      Hahaha best example why politics should not mix with aviation.

      I agree, going to Lufthansa was the dumbest thing they could have done. Even if LH decided to buy OU, it would be the end of OU as we know it. They would probably be integrated into Eurowings and that would be it. I mean, if LH is considering replacing SN Brussels with Eurowings then they sure as Hell would do it with OU.

      kao i obicno slazem se sa kolegom iz Zagreba, a ovog puta u pogledu buducnosti OU. Lufthansa je u svojim problemima i tek kad ih resi krenuce u formiranje Eurowings Croatia ili zajedno sa danasnjom Adriom nesto tipa Eurowings Alpe-Adria. To garantuje kakav takav opstanak, ali doci ce do drasticnog rezanja broja zaposlenih, kao i aviona baziranih na ZAG tako da mnogi nece biti srecni zbog ove poslovne saradnje.

      Delete
    19. Purger17:06

      To je istina. Čak i sa CityLine Adria koja će sigurno biti oformljena uz Eurowings Adria da feeda MUC, FRA, ZRH, VIE i BRU taj broj aviona biti će manji.

      No, to ne znači da će to smanjiti broj putnika u ZAG. Upravo suprotno desti će se efekt kao kod Verone nakon što su Dolomiti iz loklalnog hubnog efekta postali MUC feeder sa bazom u MUC:

      - povečao se broj frekvencija prema MUC, FRA, VIE tj. linijama koje se feedaju

      - enormno se povečao broj drugih prijevoznika, kako LCC, tako i legacy carriera

      pa je Verona sa 1,5 u kratko vrijeme (mislim nekih 2-3 godine) skočila na čak 2,5 milijuna putnika.

      Eurowings će iz Zagreba svakako letjeti i za destinacija, ne samo Njemačke. Tri aviona sa 4 rotacije dnevno naprave jednako kao i 4 aviona sa tri rotacije, ali im je popunjenost daleko veća. A iskreno od 6 A319/320 u floti CTN-a u prosjeku je 4 bilo "namjenjeno" Zagrebu (ostali su letjeli iz SPU, DBV, PUY, ZAD), dakle tu se neće desiti ništa posebno. Isto tako CityLine će zamijeniti Q400 sa RJ i imati veći broj frekvencija prema feeding rutama, dakle i tu nije za očekivati neki pad.

      Jedino negativno što će se desiti je da će ZAG biti lošije povezan sa JI Europom (ukidaju se feeding rute za SJJ, SKP, PRN, a osim SPU i DBV ostali bi preživjelo samo uz jaku potporu države kroz PSO), te manje destinacija prema ostatku Europe koji nisu feeding LH (poglavito u bližoj okolici što se letjelo sa Q400, a Cityline sigurno neće nastaviti, dok će Eurowings za to biti prevelik). Naravno, na ukinute linije će odmah uskočiti drugi prijevoznici, kao i oni koji bi otvarali nove linije da prigrabe dio kolača.

    *uvjetovati da 100% letova leti JA, ako JU ne pristane onda uči u code-share sa OU na liniji ZAG-SJJ sa 1x JA i 2x OU i ZAG-OMO 1x JA

    Nebi glupi letovi bili ni:

    MUC-BNX-OMO-IST-BNX-MUC

    ili VIE-TZL-OMO-IST-TZL-VIE

    pri čemu bi i legovi TZL-OMO-TZL i BNX-OMO-BNX bili domaći i prodavali se (barem u početku kada bi bilo manje aviona)

    Naravno, sve ovo bi se realiziralo kroz par godina, nitko ne očekuje da se odmah krene npr. iz TZL sa

    7x IST
    3x FRA
    3x VIE
    3x MUC

    jer treba i putnike naviknuti na letove, postaviti sustav... Ali da se ima previše vremena, nema. Konkurencija ubija. Ja bih krenuo sa 2x 737-700 i 2x ATR 72, pa dodavao svake godine po jedan 737-700. Nakon toga rast bi mogao biti isključivo prirodni (dakle vidiš kako raste broj putnika pa povečavaš frekvencije, eventualno uvodiš novu liniju)

    Naravno, umjesto 737-700 daleko bi isplativiji, za SJJ bolji i nadasve manje rizika stvarao 100-seater RJ, ali ako se radi o investiciji Turkisha onda to nije realno pošto ih Turkish nema, pa bi eksploatacija (maintenance, operacije, posade, nabava...) bili daleko skuplji nego što bi se uštedjelo sa nabavom RJ.

      Nebi. Ta kompanija nikada ne bi mogla napraviti feeding linije kao Air Serbia, Croatia, pa čak i Adria. Ona bi uvijek morala tražiti P2P linije iz SJJ koji je feeder luka, te niche linije iz OMO, TZL i BNX uz eventualno povezivanje tih luka i bajpasiranje SJJ. Ali dalje od ovoga ne bi mogla ići (možda u idućih 10 godina još jedan avion i 2-3 nove linije + povećanje frekvencija na gore navedene).

      Dakle nema tu "dosta potencijala", niti mjesta za megalomaniju. Ova kompanija može biti feeder Turkish i eventualno LH grupi, i biti upravo no što sam napisao "mala simpatična i profitabilna kompanijica" koja je našla svoju nichu i pokušava preživjeti među velikima tako što nalazi svoje prednosti i bude maksimalno prilagodljiva.

      Ali da je ona potrebna SJJ je! Kao što je i SKP potrebna jedna takva kompanija. Svakako je u oba slučaja Turkish najbolja opcija (te fidanje Star Alliancea), dok je ulazak u deal sa oneword i SkyTeam kompanijama gotovo nerealan. Bez feedanja velikih hubava iz SKP, SJJ, PRN i TGD nema budućnosti i ako pokreću kompaniju bez toga, bolje da učine što je učinio SKP, ukinu "neovisnu" money-lost kompaniju i prepuste se LCC.

Dakle Turkish se baš nije mnogo pitao i nije se "imalo vremena" razgovoarati o tom diskriminiranju i ignoriranju. Mjesecima je Turkish pokušavo obznaniti svoje nezadovoljstvo i ništa.

      Woow.... if that is true that is really the worst possible news for Air Serbia. Ryanair route to Brussels will attract lot of passengers from Belgrade to use INI and for sure will make Air Serbia possibility to open BEG-BCN route more risky. Most of us here wonder why they wait to open that route, and were afraid that scenario like this can happen.

      Even London flights will steal some Belgrade passengers (Ryan is much better option than Wizzair to Luton and cheaper that Air Serbia)

      But for sure that will steal passengers from South Serbia from Air Serbia that will not use Air Serbia flights to London, Milano and connection flights to Barcelona any more.

      I'm not convinced at all that JU shares such a large portion of passengers with low-cost airlines, especially if they're flying from other airports. In fact, they'll just re-route people who fly from Timisoara to fly from Nis instead.

      The area between BEG and INI that could use either one of these two has around 1.562.000 inhabitants. I am counting only the regions for whom it doesn't matter which airport they use.

      These are:
      Nisavski okrug
      Rasinski
      Pomoravski
      Zajecarski
      Borski
      Branicevski
      Raski

      I didn't count norther, western or south-eastern Serbia because it's obvious which airport they will use.

      JU should do something about it because its home market can become a battlefield between FR and W6.

      Such a weird choice of destinations to start with... Btw, how W6 is doing in INI? Is it really above 90% average LF as I read somewhere? That's quite good since I travel with them occasionally from BEG and I'm not sure if they have 90% even in BEG. Are the prices from INI much lower?

      Vuleing leti sezonski za Beg, Ryan sigurno nece krenuti sa letovima u narednih nekoliko meseci, tako da cemo sutra videti sta su nam spremili i sa kim ce da se bore. Moje misljenje je da hoce da uniste WIZZ u ovom regionu SKP, SOF INI su jako blizu, tako da ce biti zanimljivo.

      Ja mislim da ce FR krenuti do kraja juna. Zasto bi propustili celo leto? Brend im je dosta jak u Srbiji tako da bi napravili veliki bum. Mesec i po dana je dovoljno za prodaju karata, posebno ako ce biti po €9 po smeru kao sto je obicaja sa njima.

      Since this list is talking about Ryanair, I took a look at Timisoara airport on wikipedia. According to that sight, Ryanair will be flying out of Timisoara to the following destinations
      Bergamo......Nov 1
      Berlin SXF...Nov 2
      Bucharest....Sep 1
      Charleroi....Sep 1
      Hahn.........Sep 2
      London STN...Sep 1
      Weeze........Sep 4

      If you lok on Nis ( Wikipedia) only the Wizz destinations show. We shall have to wait and see if any news will be there for Nis in regards to Ryanair. Maybe Ryanair will open a shuttle service via bus from Nis to Timisoara. Just a guess.

Well done FR and W6!I don't believe in the existence of any national carrier just for prestige.The word NATIONAL to me means to help your people not to robb them with those prices.

      INN Sinko dvije stvari:

      1. Naravno da će putnici iz Novog Sada i Beograda odlaziti u Temišvar i Niš da lete sa Ryanairom, kao što danas putnici iz Zagreba odlaze u Veneciju, Bratislavu, Budimpeštu, Zadar, Split... da lete sa Ryanariom, easyJetom i drugima. A ti gradovi su puno dalje + granica, nego što je Niš iz Beograda ili Novog Sada.

      2. Nije istina da je većina putnika preko BEG transferna. Ove zime bila je velika manjina. Nadam se da će se ljeti vratiti na omjer kao prošlog ljeta kada je bilo oko 55% transfernih putnika. No, da je čak i istina da su transferni putnici velika večina (a vjerujmi imam podatke koji pouzdano govore drugačije) i da samo dio njih ode Ryanairu u Niš/Temišvar ne govorimo o zanemarivoj brojci. Neka na svakom Londonskom avionu ima 50 putnika iz Beograda, a njih 20 se odluči za putovanje iz Niša/Temišvara (nešto nišlija, nešto "privučenih" beograđana), to je samo na toj liniji 18.720 putnika godišnje. E sad misliš da Air Serbija može podnijeti tih 19.000 putnika manje na toj liniji, da će ih pronači u "novim" putnicima (smanjenjem cijena, a time i yielda), privući više transfernih putnika umjesto njih ili je realnije da će smanjiti broj frekvencija. A ako smanji broj frekvencija smanjit će i broj konektiranosti, a to znači i manje potencijalnih transfernih putnika.

      Za JU lokalni putnici su jako vazni i nije kao da je odustala od njih jer se skoncentrise na transfere- da je tako ne bi imali one glupe happy friday i happy saturday promocije svaki cas.
      Isto tako, sposobnost JU mendzmenta ce se najbolje dokazati ove zime. Leti svako moze da napuni avion ali je fora da odrzis barem nesto nalik normalnom redu letenja tokom zime- sto nije bio slucaj prosle godine.

      JU je u poslednje vreme nacisto srozao cene karata za lokalne putnike sto ukazuje na sledece:

      1. oni su im potrebni
      2. nisu uspeli da privuku veliki broj transfernih putnika a posebno ne onih lukrativnijih.

      Dakle u zakljucku, ovo jesu lose vesti za JU jer uz W6 u Beogradu, sada imaju i FR u Nisu. Sem ako ne mislis da JU bas briga sto W6 leti BEG-EIN/MMX/NYO/LCA/DTM/BSL gde direktno ili indirektno konkurisu sa njima i oduzimaju im putnike?

      Those promotions are truly bizarre and amateurish. Just invest in better yield management system. It's 2016! People don't want to hunt for your promotions or go to the physical store, they just want to go to the website, do a search and see reasonable prices.

    Ovo me neodoljivo podseća na prodaju Srpske fabrike stakla Paraćin onom Bugarinu Cvetanu Vasilevu ili kako već. Prodali mu firmu, on je upropastio, oni mu konfiskovali, pa mu opet prodali ito za siću.

    Ovde doduše možda ima i momenta reakcije na nagli i verovatno njima neočekivan razvoj regionalnih firmi, opre svega Air Serbie, Aerodroma Beograd i Zagreb, te etabliranja LCC u Skoplju i Tuzli.

    Ono što BIH treba mnogo hitnije je ILS Cat. III na SJJ. Tek kad to urade onda treba da razmišljaju o pitanju nacionalne aviokompanije. Treba sačekati da vidimo koliko će TK dobro podneti krizu koja utiče na pad turskog turizma, tu računam i njihove podružnice poput SunExpressa i AnadoluJeta.
