Izindiza zaseMelika ezihlukumezekile zisika izihlalo ezisezingeni lokuqala nezamabhizinisi zivuna abaqeqeshi ezindizeni zamazwe ngamazwe njengoba zilinde izimpawu zempilo ohambweni olusezingeni eliphezulu olungase lubonise ukululama okubanzi.
Kuze kube manje, lezi zimpawu ziyindlala, kodwa uma ukusimama komnotho womhlaba wonke kubambeka, izindiza ezinemizila ehamba phambili yamazwe ngamazwe zizolulama ngokushesha okukhulu.
Kuze kube lokho kwenzeka, nokho, abathwali bomhlaba wonke abazinze e-US - ikakhulukazi labo abanobukhona obukhulu be-transpacific - bazohlupheka kakhulu kunezimbangi zabo.
“Lokho kuzoba umkhuba wokubukela ehlobo ukuze sibone ukuthi sithola noma yiluphi uhlobo lokulinganisela ekwehleni konyaka nonyaka emalini engenayo yeyunithi yabagibeli ngasohlangothini lwamazwe ngamazwe,” kusho uBill Warlick, umhlaziyi wezindiza kwa-Fitch Ratings.
"Lokho kungaba yinkomba ehamba phambili yokuthola kabusha imali engenayo embonini."
Eminyakeni yakamuva, izindiza ezifana ne-UAL Corp's United Airlines kanye neNorthwest Airlines, ezathengwa ngonyaka odlule yi-Delta Air Lines Inc, zaqinisa amakhabethe asezingeni lokuqala nelebhizinisi ezindizeni ezinde ngethemba lokuheha abahambi abanezithende ezinhle.
Baphinde bazama ukususa amandla emizileni yasekhaya eqhudelanayo baye ezindizeni zamazwe ngamazwe ezinabantu abaningi futhi ezinenzuzo enkulu futhi baqhudelana kanzima ukuze bathole amalungelo okundizela e-China.
"Bangaphikisana ngokuthi, isikhathi eside, kuzoshayela uhlobo oluthile lwemali engenayo yeyunithi embonini," kusho u-Warlick. "Kodwa okwamanje, kunzima ukusho ukuthi kukhona inzuzo enkulu kulokho kutshalwa kwezimali."
Ukuhamba kwezamabhizinisi kwehle ngokushesha selokhu kwaqala ukuwohloka komnotho ngonyaka odlule kanti izinkampani eziqaphela ukonga zinciphise ukuhamba. Abanye bathenga izihlalo ezishibhile ezindizeni ezithatha uhambo olude, okushiya izinkampani zezindiza zijahe ukugcwalisa amagumbi aphezulu.
NgoMeyi, i-United, enabantu abaningi base-Asia, yabona isiminyaminya samazwe ngamazwe sehla ngamaphesenti ayi-15, yedlula ukuncishiswa kwamanani ngo-8.7 kuleyo mizila. Ukugcwala kwe-United emizileni yasePacific yehle ngamaphesenti angama-21.4 njengoba inciphise ngamaphesenti ayi-12.7 ukusuka kumthamo wayo.
I-Delta, enesizinda eTokyo, ithe ukuhamba kwezimoto kwamanye amazwe kwehle ngamaphesenti ayi-14.6 ngoMeyi, kanti ukuminyana emigwaqweni yayo yasePacific kwehle ngamaphesenti angama-31.6 ngokuncipha ngamaphesenti angama-20.5.
I-American Airlines, okuyiyunithi ye-AMR Corp, ibike ukwehla ngamaphesenti angu-8.9 kwezimoto zomhlaba wonke ngoMeyi kanye nokwehla ngamaphesenti angu-6.7 kwethrafikhi yasePacific.
UKUHWEBA PHANSI
Okunye ukwehla kungenzeka kube umphumela wokukhathazeka ngegciwane lomkhuhlane we-H1N1 ngaphezu komkhuba wesikhathi eside wokwehla kwesidingo sokuhamba.
“Indawo eyodwa ebuthaka kakhulu ababhekene nayo njengamanje uhambo lwamazwe ngamazwe oluphambili futhi luyingxenye yabo enenzuzo kakhulu,” kusho uJim Corridore, umhlaziyi wezindiza kwa-Standard & Poor's. "Ngokusobala, bangathanda ukubona izimpawu zokuthuthuka kulelo cala."
Ifuna ukuhambisana noshintsho olufunwayo olusuka ezihlalweni ezisezingeni lokuqala nezamabhizinisi, i-United ihambisa ezinye zalezo zihlalo emakilasini ashibhile.
"Sinyusa kancane isibalo esiphelele ngoba sifaka abanye abaqeqeshi," kusho uGreg Taylor, iphini likamongameli omkhulu we-UAL wezokuhlela nezinhlelo zebhizinisi, engqungqutheleni yabatshalizimali ngeledlule.
"Ukudonsa amaphesenti angu-20 ezihlalo zekilasi lebhizinisi endaweni yamanje kuyindawo enhle yokuba."
I-Delta ithe ngesonto eledlule izonciphisa umthamo wamazwe ngamazwe ngamaphesenti angu-15 kusukela ngoSepthemba. I-AMR iphinde yamemezela ukujula komthamo kanye nezinye izindiza okulindeleke ukuthi zilandele.
"Sibhekene nokuncipha okukhulu kohambo lwezinkampani okuhlangene nokudayisa okunonya esiye sabhekana nakho, okuholele ekutheni kube buthaka kakhulu ikilasi lokubhuka kanye nengxubevange yamakhabethe endizeni yethu," kusho uMongameli we-Delta u-Ed Bastian engqungqutheleni yabatshalizimali eyedlule. isonto.
"Sizizwa sengathi siyasimama, kodwa lokho akusho ukuthi ukululama okwamanje."
