When we talked about the aviation industry before, we always thought that airlines would not lose money, because the scale of airlines was particularly large and the flow of people was particularly large. It's hard to imagine an airline company losing money, but it did happen during the COVID-19 epidemic.
The three major domestic airlines lose 37 billion a year.
March and April are the time when major companies release their annual financial reports, and airlines also release their own financial reports. We can see that the three major domestic airlines have suffered losses to varying degrees. China Southern Airlines lost 508%, Air China lost 65.438+0.44 billion yuan and China Eastern Airlines lost 565.438+0%. Together, these three airlines lost 37 billion yuan, which is a big blow to the aviation industry.
The main reason for the loss is the COVID-19 epidemic.
The reason is very simple, because last year was a year in which the epidemic in COVID-19 continued, so the flow of people was particularly small last year, and many areas also introduced relevant restrictions. Last year, the flights of major airlines were basically at a standstill. Although the plane did not fly, the operating cost and labor cost of the plane still exist, which is also an important part of the airline's loss. Now that the COVID-19 epidemic has gradually subsided, the losses of airlines will be reduced immediately.
The aviation industry can recover in a short time.
Let me emphasize that this is my personal opinion, because I feel that the global economy is gradually recovering and various exports are opening up one after another. Under this premise, the aviation industry will get good development opportunities, at least the passenger flow will be much more than before.
An important reason for the loss of the aviation industry last year was that no one flew, and cargo transportation was also a problem. These two problems will be solved this year, so the aviation industry will definitely recover gradually.
