I-Airlines for America (A4A), inhlangano yezohwebo yemboni yezinkampani zezindiza ezihamba phambili zaseMelika, namuhla ilinganise ukuthi abagibeli abayizigidi ezingu-45.7 bazohamba ngezindiza zase-US phakathi nenkathi yohambo lwamaholide asebusika wezinsuku ezingu-18 kusukela ngoLwesine, Dis. 20, kuze kube yiLanga, Jan. 6. Lokhu kuzoba ukunyuka ngamaphesenti angu-5.2 ngaphezu kwabagibeli abalinganiselwa ezigidini ezingama-43.4 abandiza ngesikhathi esifanayo ngonyaka odlule.
Ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nesilinganiso esilindelekile sabagibeli abayizigidi ezingu-2.54 ngosuku - ukwanda kwabahambi abangu-126,000 ngosuku kusukela ngonyaka odlule - izindiza zase-US zizohlinzeka ngezihlalo ezengeziwe ezingu-143,000 nsuku zonke kuwo wonke amanethiwekhi azo omhlaba.
“Ngenxa yezindleko zezindiza eziphansi kakhulu, abahambi bakhetha ukuhamba ngezindiza zezindiza zase-US ngezinombolo ezirekhodiwe, ikakhulukazi ngesikhathi samaholide esimatasa,” iPhini Likamongameli we-A4A kanye Nosomnotho Omkhulu u-John Heimlich. “Ukwenyuka kwezinketho zabathengi kanye nemali yokugibela ehambisana cishe nesabelomali ngasinye kusize inani elirekhodiwe labantu eliya esibhakabhakeni ukuvakashela abathandekayo, ukuqhuba ibhizinisi noma ukujabulela ukuphumula ngamaholide.”
Inani labagibeli bansuku zonke kulindeleke ukuthi lisukela ku-2.1 liye ku-2.9 million. Izinsuku zokuhamba ezimatasa kakhulu ezilindelwe ngokulandelana okulinganiselwe yilezi:
ULwesihlanu, Disemba 21
ULwesine, Disemba 20
ULwesithathu, Disemba 26
Izinsuku zokuhamba ezilula kakhulu kulindeleke ukuthi kube usuku olwandulela uKhisimuzi kanye nosuku lukaKhisimusi, lulandelwe nguMgqibelo, Jan. 5.
Izinkampani zezindiza, i-TSA ziyaqhubeka nokusebenza ndawonye ngaphambi kwesikhathi esimatasa sokuhamba ngamaholide
Ngemva kwesikhathi esimatasa kakhulu se-Thanksgiving yokuhamba ngendiza emlandweni, izindiza zase-US ziyaqhubeka nokusebenza ngokubambisana ne-Transportation Security Administration (TSA) ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuphepha nokuvikeleka kwezigidi zabagibeli namalungu eqembu abahlolwa ezindaweni zokuhlola ze-TSA usuku ngalunye ngaphambili. baqhubeke nezindiza zabo ezisukayo.
“Izinkampani zezindiza zitshala imali futhi zisebenza ngokubambisana ne-TSA, okuhlanganisa nokwandisa ukusetshenziswa kwe-biometrics kanye nobuchwepheshe bokuhlola obusha nokukhuthaza abagibeli abengeziwe ukuthi babhalise Ezinhlelweni Zabahambi Abathenjwayo,” kusho iPhini Likamongameli Wezokuphepha Nokuqondisa i-A4A uLauren Beyer. “Lezi zinto ezintsha zisenza sivikeleke kakhulu futhi zithuthukise ulwazi lwabagibeli. Ukuphepha kwabagibeli nabasebenzi bethu kuhlala kuyinto ehamba phambili embonini, ikakhulukazi ngesikhathi samaholidi amatasa.”
Izinkampani zezindiza, izikhumulo zezindiza zibambisana ezinhlelweni zengqalasizinda yesikhumulo sezindiza ngaphandle kwentela eyengeziwe kubagibeli
Ngezindleko zezindiza eziphansi ngokomlando kanye nesidingo esikhulayo sokuhamba ngendiza, izindiza zisebenza ngokubambisana nezikhumulo zezindiza ezweni lonke ukuze ziqinisekise ukuthi ulwazi lwamakhasimende luhle, kusukela ekungeneni kuye kokwehla.
Izinkampani zezindiza zase-US ziyaqhubeka nokutshala izimali ezishisiwe kungqalasizinda yesikhumulo sezindiza ukuze zithuthukise futhi zandise izinsiza. Ukusebenzisana kwezinkampani zezindiza nesikhumulo sezindiza sekuvele kuholele kumaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-130 kumaphrojekthi okuthuthukisa izimali eziqediwe, eziqhubekayo noma ezigunyazwe ezikhumulweni zezindiza ezinkulu kunazo zonke zezwe lase-US kule minyaka eyishumi edlule kuphela ngezinhlelo ezengeziwe zemisebenzi. Intuthuko iphinde ibe namandla ezikhumulweni zezindiza ezincane nezimaphakathi nasezikhungweni zempahla ezweni lonke.
I-A4A sekuyisikhathi eside ikhuthaza ngokumelene nokukhushulwa kwezintela kumphakathi endizayo, icaphuna izinsiza eziningi ezixhaswe kakhulu ezitholakala ezikhumulweni zezindiza zamaphrojekthi amasha, okuhlanganisa u-$3.3 wezigidigidi wemali engenayo evela ku-Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) ngo-2017 kuphela. Izikhumulo zezindiza nazo zikwazi ukufinyelela ngaphezu kuka-$14.5 wezigidigidi ezigciniwe zemali ezinganqunyelwe kanye nokutshalwa kwezimali kanti Isikhwama Sezindiza Nezindiza Zezindiza (AATF) sinemali esele engabophezeleki engu-$6 billion, amaphrojekthi eHhovisi Lesabelomali seCongressional azokhula afinyelele irekhodi lamaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-8.7 ekupheleni 2020.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- airlines continue to work collaboratively with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to ensure the safety and security of the millions of passengers and crew members who are screened at TSA checkpoints each day before continuing on to their departing flights.
- Ngezindleko zezindiza eziphansi ngokomlando kanye nesidingo esikhulayo sokuhamba ngendiza, izindiza zisebenza ngokubambisana nezikhumulo zezindiza ezweni lonke ukuze ziqinisekise ukuthi ulwazi lwamakhasimende luhle, kusukela ekungeneni kuye kokwehla.
- “Airlines are investing and work in close coordination with the TSA, including by expanding the use of biometrics and innovative screening technology and encouraging more passengers to enroll in Trusted Traveler Programs,”.
