I-American Airlines ithe ngoLwesithathu inemali yokulethwa kwawo wonke ama-oda ayo e-Boeing 84 angu-737 kuze kube u-2011. Phambilini, i-American yayithe inezibophezelo zezimali kuphela zokukhokhela ama-oda angu-737 engxenyeni yesibili ka-2010.
I-American ithi idinga ama-Boeing 737-800 ayo amasha ngoba “anomthelela omuhle emvelweni,” futhi okubaluleke nakakhulu, azonga kakhulu uphethiloli. "I-737-800 entsha ishisa cishe amaphesenti angu-35 ngaphansi kukaphethiloli endaweni ye-mile-mile kune-MD-80 eshintshwayo, isilinganiso sokonga amalitha angu-800,000 kaphethiloli endizeni ngayinye ngonyaka," kusho u-American.
I-American inyuse amaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-520 esikweletini somphakathi engxenyeni yesibili. Leyo mali, ehlanganiswe nezibopho “zangaphambili” zezimali, inika umMelika amandla okuthenga indiza kuze kube u-2011, inkampani yachaza.
I-American iphinde yaqoqa imali eyizigidi ezingama- $ 66 ngekota yesibili evela ekuqashisweni kokuthengiswa okubandakanya ezinye izindiza ezinazo.
"Enye yezinto ezibalulekile kwikota yesibili kwaba ukuthunyelwa kwegagasi lokuqala lama-737 amasha esizowathola eminyakeni emibili ezayo," kusho uGerard Arpey, oyi-CEO ye-AMR Corp., okuyinkampani engumzali ye-American Airlines, encwadini yememo. kubasebenzi. “Ngaphezu kwezindiza ezintsha, siyaqhubeka nokutshala imali ngobuhlakani ukuze silungise ingaphakathi lendiza yethu nezindawo zesikhumulo sezindiza ngezindlela ezihlukahlukene.”
Le nkampani ibike ukuthi ikota yesibili ilahlekelwe ngamaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-390 ngoLwesithathu.
Ngaphandle kwenkokhiso yesikhathi esisodwa yamaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-70 ehlobene nokudayiswa kwendiza ethile kanye nokumiswa kwendiza ye-Airbus A300 eqashiwe ngaphambi kokuphelelwa yisikhathi sokuqashisa, i-American ibike ukulahlekelwa kwezigidi ezingu-$319, noma u-$1.14 isabelo ngasinye. Abahlaziyi be-Wall Street bebelindele ukulahlekelwa okungu-$1.28 ngesheya ngalinye.

Uzakwethu Othandekayo:
Uma kubhekwa ukwehla kwamandla omnotho emhlabeni jikelele kanye nokwehla okukhulu kwezohambo lwendiza kusukela ngemuva kuka-9/11, ngiyaqiniseka ukuthi akumangazi ukuthi silahlekelwe yimali ngekota yesibili ka-2009. Ukuba neqiniso, ezinyangeni ezintathu eziphelayo. Ngomhla zingama-30 kuJuni, silahlekelwe amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-319, okuqhathaniswa nokulahlekelwa kwezigidi ezingu-$298 ngesikhathi esifanayo ngo-2008, ngaphandle kwezinto ezikhethekile. Njengoba nazi, ngonyaka owedlule sasihamba ngamandla ukuze sibhekane nenkinga yokukhuphuka kwezindleko zikaphethiloli. Ngaleso sikhathi ngasho ukuthi imboni yezindiza ayakhiwe ngamadola ayi-130 uwoyela womgqomo. Lokho kuseyiqiniso, kodwa namuhla kufanele ngengeze ukuthi imboni ayikhelwanga isimo sanamuhla sokukhula komnotho womhlaba okungekuhle kanye nezimakethe zezimali ezishintshashintshayo.
Ukuwohloka komnotho emhlabeni wonke kugcine inqwaba yabahambi besekhaya ngekota yesibili, njengoba kufakazelwa ukwehla kwemali engenayo yabagibeli ngamaphesenti angama-23. Nakuba siye sakwazi ukugcina izindiza zethu zigcwele ngokunengqondo, isimo sokuncintisana sisivimbele ukuba sikwazi ukukhokhisa imali yokugibela eyanele ukuze senze imali. Okwengeza lokhu, ukuhamba kwezamabhizinisi kuthinteke kakhulu ngenxa yomnotho obuthakathaka. Eqinisweni, isivuno sekota yesibili ye-AA, emele imali yokugibela, yehle ngamaphesenti ayi-15 uma kuqhathaniswa no-2008. Okwenza izinto zaba zimbi kakhulu ukwehla okukhulu kwemali engenayo esiye saba nayo ngenxa yokuqubuka komkhuhlane we-H1N1.
Uma othile ebikezela ukuthi amanani kawoyela azokwehliswa ngesigamu kusukela cishe ku-$150 emgqonyeni ngonyaka odlule, nokho imboni yezindiza izoba sesimweni esibi kakhulu, ababaningi abantu abebengakholwa - kodwa kubonakala kuyilokho kanye okwenzekile. Futhi akukho nkampani yenethiwekhi evikelekile - kungakhathaliseki ukuthi yizindleko eziphansi, ifa noma amazwe angaphandle, ngoba sonke sincike empilweni yezomnotho esiwusebenzelayo.
Kulesi simo somnotho esingajwayelekile, kubalulekile ukuthi siqhubeke sigxilise imizamo yethu ezintweni esingazilawula. Kithina sonke, lokho kusho ukuqhubeka sisebenzisa uma kuziwa ekuletheni izisekelo zesevisi yendiza - futhi kufanele sonke sikhuthazwe iqiniso lokuthi ezigabeni eziningi zesevisi besilokhu senza umsebenzi omuhle ezinyangeni ezisanda kwedlula.
Uma kuqhathaniswa no-2008, isici sethu sokuqeda, ukusebenza ngesikhathi, nezibalo zokuphatha imithwalo konke kuyathuthukiswa — futhi akumangazi, kanjalo nezikolo zokwaneliseka kwamakhasimende ethu. Ngokuncipha kwesidingo sohambo lwendiza okwenza ukuncintisana kwawo wonke amakhasimende kushube kakhulu, ukugxila kwethu ekuhlinzekeni amakhasimende akukaze kubaluleke kakhulu. Futhi sonke sidinga ukwenza ingxenye yethu ukuze sisekele futhi sakhe umfutho wethu wamanje.
Nakuba izinto ziyinselele namuhla, umsebenzi wethu ubuzoba nzima kakhulu ukube asizange sibhekane nezinselele eziningi kangaka phakathi neminyaka embalwa edlule. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngifuna ukugcizelela futhi ukuthi inhloso yethu akukona nje ukubekezelela ubunzima obusanda kwenzeka. Okokuqinisekisa ukuthi inkampani yethu yezindiza isesimweni sokuncintisana futhi iwine isikhathi eside. Yilokho okushiwo uhlelo lwethu lokuvuselela izimoto, futhi okunye okubalulekile kwekota yesibili kwaba ukuthunyelwa kwegagasi lokuqala lama-737 amasha esizowathola eminyakeni emibili ezayo. Ngaphezu kwezindiza ezintsha, siyaqhubeka nokutshala imali ngobuhlakani ukuze silungise ingaphakathi lendiza yethu nezinsiza zezindiza ngezindlela ezihlukahlukene.
Ngaphandle kokunciphisa ubukhulu balokho thina - kanye nazo zonke ezinye izinkampani zezindiza - esibhekene nazo namuhla, sikholelwa ukuthi sithatha izinyathelo ezifanele. Sinohlu olude lwamandla okuncintisana, ukuqina okuqinisekisiwe, futhi naphezu kwezithiyo ezinkulu, senza kahle ezindaweni eziningi. Sisebenzisa inkampani yezindiza amakhasimende ethu angancika kuyo, ilethe imikhiqizo namasevisi abawazisayo, futhi sakha izimoto kanye nenethiwekhi ezosiza amakhasimende ethu, abantu bethu, kanye nenkampani yethu iminyaka eminingi ezayo.
Ngifuna ukuphetha, njengenjwayelo, ngokunibonga ngokuzikhandla kwenu nokuzibophezela kwenu ku-American Airlines.
Owakho ngokuzithandela,
(Gerard Arpey, isiginesha)
