WASHINGTON - I-Air Transport Association of America (ATA), inhlangano yabahwebi bemboni yezindiza ezihamba phambili zaseMelika, ilinganisela ukuthi isilinganiso sabantu abayizigidi ezi-2.24 bazoya esibhakabhakeni nsuku zonke kuleli hlobo, okuwukunyuka kwansuku zonke kwama-34,000 uma kuqhathaniswa nonyaka odlule. Isibikezelo siphinde sibonisa ukuthi abahambi babhukha izindiza zamazwe ngamazwe ngezinombolo ezirekhodiwe, okubonisa umnotho othuthukayo kanye neqiniso lokuthi ukuhamba ngendiza kuhlala kuyinzuzo, naphezu kwamanani entengo kaphethiloli aphezulu.
Esibikezelweni sayo saminyaka yonke sokuhamba ngomoya ehlobo, i-ATA ibikezela ukuthi izinkampani zezindiza zase-US zizothwala isamba sabagibeli abayizigidi ezingu-206.2 kusukela ngoJuni kuya ku-Agasti, cishe abagibeli abayizigidi ezi-3 (amaphesenti angu-1.5) ngaphezu kwangesikhathi esifanayo ngo-2010. Abagibeli, njengoba bekulindelekile, abakalulami emazingeni abo angaphambi kokuwohloka komnotho ehlobo lika-2008 futhi bahlala ngaphansi kwehlobo lika-2007 eliphakeme kunawo wonke elingaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-217.6.
"Kuyakhuthaza ukuthi abantu abaningi bazondiza kuleli hlobo, naphezu kwamanani aphezulu kagesi akhokhisa wonke umnotho wezwe," kusho uMongameli we-ATA kanye ne-CEO uNicholas E. Calio. "Imikhuba ikhomba endleleni efanele."
Ukuhlaziywa kwesilinganiso semali yokugibela kule minyaka eyishumi edlule kubonisa ukuthi kube khona ushintsho oluncane kusukela ngo-2000. Ngo-2010, isilinganiso semali yohambo lokuya nokubuya yase-US sasingu-$316. Uma kuqhathaniswa, imali yokugibela ngo-2000 yayingama-$314 ukuya nokubuya, okuyinkomba ecacile yokuthi imali yokugibela ayizange ihambisane nokwehla kwamandla emali.
Irekhodi labagibeli bamazwe ngamazwe
Isibikezelo sasehlobo siphinde siveze ukuthi isibalo sabagibeli bamazwe ngamazwe kulindeleke ukuthi sifinyelele irekhodi elisha. Kubagibeli abayizigidi ezingama-206.2 okulindeleke ukuthi bahambe ngezindiza zaseMelika kuleli hlobo, abayizigidi ezingama-26.3 bazobe behamba ngezindiza zamazwe omhlaba. Lesi silinganiso sidlula irekhodi langaphambilini labagibeli abayizigidi ezingu-25.8 abandize ngehlobo lika-2010.
“Ukukhula kwezokuhamba ngezindiza emhlabeni wonke kuqinisekisa indima ebalulekile edlalwa izindiza zezentengiselwano ekuxhumaniseni i-United States nomnotho womhlaba. Eminyakeni eyishumi ezayo, iningi lokukhula kohambo lizokwenzeka ngaphandle kwemingcele yethu kwezomnotho ezisathuthuka. Ukuze kube lula ukuncintisana kwe-US futhi kuhlangatshezwane nesidingo samakhasimende, izinkampani zezindiza kufanele zikwazi ukusebenza endaweni evumela ukwanda kwamanye amazwe, "kusho uCalio.
Ngaphakathi, cishe abagibeli abayizigidi ezingu-180 bazondiza kuleli hlobo, besuka ezigidini ezingu-177.3 abandiza ehlobo lika-2010. Irekhodi laqoshwa ngo-2007, lapho abagibeli abayizigidi ezingu-192.4 bandizela kuleli phakathi nezinyanga zasehlobo.
Amanani Amandla Aphezulu Naguquguqukayo Ahlala Eyinselele
Izinkampani zezindiza zisakhathazekile ngezintengo zamandla aphezulu kuleli hlobo kanye nomthelela wazo kukho kokubili isidingo kanye nezindleko zokuhlinzeka ngesevisi yomoya. “Nakuba isidingo sokuhamba ngendiza siqhubeka nokuba ngcono, amanani entengo kagesi aphezulu futhi aguquguqukayo angaphazamisa imizamo yokululama,” kusho uCalio.
Ngekota yokuqala, izinkampani zezindiza zase-US zikhokhe amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyi-11.4, okukhuphuke ngamaphesenti angama-30 kusukela ngesikhathi esifanayo ngo-2010. Intengo kaphethiloli wendiza manje isisezingeni eliphezulu kakhulu kusukela ngekota yesithathu ka-2008.
Amathiphu Abahambi
I-ATA ikhuthaza abagibeli ukuthi babheke ikhasi layo lensiza ukuthola amathiphu okuhamba anconyiwe. Ikakhulukazi, abahambi bayelulekwa ukuthi bakhumbule lokhu okulandelayo:
Buyekeza iwebhusayithi yenkampani yezindiza ondizela kuyo ukuze uthole izinqubomgomo ezifanele, izinsiza, izinhlelo zesevisi yamakhasimende kanye nezaziso zokuxwayisa ngokusebenza kwendiza.
Ngaphambi kokusuka uye esikhumulweni sezindiza, qiniseka ukuthi uhlola imephu yokubambezeleka kwesikhumulo sezindiza iFederal Aviation Administration (FAA).
Zonke izindiza ezingamalungu e-ATA zithobela ngokugcwele Uhlelo Lokuvikeleka Kwezindiza Ezokuthutha (TSA) Okuzosho ukuthi abagibeli bangalindela izinkinga zokuphepha ezimbalwa esikhumulweni sezindiza.
Khumbula ukuthi i-TSA idinga ukuthi abahambi bezindiza balandele Umthetho wayo 3-1-1 woketshezi, amajeli nama-aerosols ezikhwameni ogibela kuzo uma bedlula ezindaweni zokuhlola ezokuphepha.
