Malaysia Airlines mette in vendita tutti i suoi A380


quindi il progetto di Malaysia Airlines e' di creare una nuova compagnia e girarle tutti I 380 riconfigurati a 700 posti.
pertanto 700 posti x 8(voli al giorno) x 365 (giorni l'anno) = 2.044.000
non fa una piega!

Ipotizzando di intercettare tutti (ma proprio tutti) i pax che dall'estero si recano in pellegrinaggio alla Mecca. Mi pare ipotesi quanto meno azzardata.

Number of pilgrims per year

There has been a substantial increase in the number of pilgrims during the last 92 years, and the number of foreign pilgrims has increased by approximately 2,824 percent, from 58,584 in 1920 to 1,712,962 in 2012.[90] Because of development and expansion work at Masjid al-Haram, the authority restricted the number of pilgrims in 2013.[91][92] The following number of pilgrims arrived in Saudi Arabia each year to perform Hajj.

Il problema, pero', e' che l'Hajj capita per un mese/due all'anno...
 
possibile che MH non è riuscita a piazzare nemmeno un 380? che prezzo faceva? quello di listino Airbus? non posso credere che nessuna compagnia fosse interessata all'acquisto

Malaysia A380 Decision Deepens Airbus Worries

May 1, 2015Jens Flottau | Aviation Daily

Airbus Group Chief Financial Officer Harald Wilhelm says he “cannot see” the alleged decision byMalaysia Airlines (MAS) to sell or lease out its entire Airbus A380 fleet “impacting our campaigns” for more orders.
MAS is understood to have decided to phase out its six Airbus A380s over time in an effort to reduce its long-haul capacity and to focus on a more regional network, a significant part of its restructuring. According to one senior airline source, MAS and Turkish Airlines have been talking about a lease deal for two Malaysia aircraft as Turkish expands its long-haul capacity. MAS said on Friday that it is "still working to finalize the business plan" and that "exploring fleet options to enhance viability of long-haul sectors is one area being looked into."
Ex-Aer Lingus CEO Christoph Mueller took over as MAS’s new Managing Director and CEO on April 30, replacing Ahmad Jauhari Yahya.
Wilhelm said on Thursday that the move was “a fleet-planning decision by a customer.” Airbus separately said that the aircraft “has enjoyed great success with MAS and is extremely popular with the airline’s customers.” IAG CEO Willie Walsh separately said on the same day that in principle he would be open to considering second-hand A380s, but that decision is still a few years out, in his opinion.
But contrary to Wilhelm’s remarks, the availability of six very young second-hand A380s on the market must be highly unwelcome news for Airbus as it struggles to find new customers for the aircraft. Airbus is already dealing with remarketing six A380s coming from the canceled Skymark order, some of which have already been built.
It is also facing the very real prospect that Turkish Airlines may opt to at least partly go for used aircraft, rather than the fleet of all-new A380s it has also been considering. Pricing power, too, will be affected, in campaigns in which the MAS aircraft arise as an option.
According to Wilhelm, A380 production of 30 aircraft is sold out in 2015-16, but there are open slots in 2017. “We still have time to add to [the order book],” he said.
Airbus plans to break even in terms of production costs for the first time in 2015, but for that target to be met, the manufacturer cannot reduce the annual rate too-far below 30 units.
Once confirmed, MAS will be the first airline to decide to retire an operational A380 fleet. In addition to Skymark, other orders have been canceled, including those by Hong Kong Airlines and Kingfisher. Air France and Lufthansa have reduced the number of units they will take. On the other hand, Emirates continues to expand its A380 fleet and now has a total of 140 aircraft on firm order.

Ma come, Malaysia Airlines riduce il long haul e si concentra sul regional? Ma che fa come fece Alitalia? Fra l'altro, soprattutto AirAsia ma anche Tiger offrono un servizio notevole, con frequenze e destinazioni da major (esperienza diretta). Non riesco proprio a capire.

Circa il destino del 380, una sua eventuale scomparsa dal mercato sarebbe per noi utenti una bella perdita. Nessun altro aereo si avvicina nemmeno lontanamente al confort, acustico ma non solo, dell'A380; è una macchina che per il passeggero veramente fa la differenza (e purtroppo pure per le tasche della compagnia, a quanto pare)

Si, ma l'Umrah e' stata estesa a quasi tutto l'anno, con solo poche settimane di black out ;)

L'articolo di OneShot parlava di Hajj, pero'. E se non sbaglio il terminal dei pellegrini, e la tendopoli, sono aperti solo durante l'Hajj. Al di la' di tutto, sei A380 per fare solo KL-Jeddah mi pare una vaccata, ma d'altronde dalla Malaysia se ne sentono parecchie in questi giorni!
 
Metto qui, dopo Malaysia anche PIA ha intenzione di creare una divisione dedicata al trasporto pellegrini diretti all' Hajj:

PIA Pakistan mulls setting up own Hajj/Umrah unit

PIA - Pakistan International Airlines (PK, Karachi Int'l) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Bernd Hildenbrand says the carrier is considering setting up a separate dedicated unit to cater specifically to Hajj and Umrah operations.

He made the comments during a recent Karachi Rotary Club press event where he also alluded to plans to increase PIA's fleet to sixty aircraft by 2020.

The national carrier transported around 52,000 passengers from several Pakistani cities to Saudi Arabia during this year's Hajj, the CEO said. Several thousand more are expected to make the Umrah pilgrimage wherein pilgrims are ferried to Jeddah.

This year, PIA used its own fleet of aircraft, including its soon to be retired A310-300 fleet, to handle Hajj traffic.
