  1. good morning Nicholas, a query, A was returned according to the schedule 330 as the past was planned 7 Ultra Air made its inaugural flight in Colombia and thus becomes the ninth regular airline in the country??

    Apart from when Tame's aggressive campaign to recover the national market would begin as indicated???

    Specifically and concretely, the flights to Manta from Quito are still very expensive and nobody controls

    Thanks

    1. No, its return to the owner is delayed for approximately 17 Ultra Air made its inaugural flight in Colombia and thus becomes the ninth regular airline in the country. Tame started adjusting his home frequencies, The first step was to increase flights and adjust schedules to Cuenca.

      The prices of the tickets to Manta or other destinations have nothing to do with the aggressive campaign and in Ecuador, Fortunately, there is no market control and price control, the market dictates them.

  2. Congratulations David for your excellent comment that I fully share and that I have been supporting on several occasions in this column by Nicolas

  3. The fundamental thing is to make TAME a solvent airline. Fleet approval, profitable destinations and internationalization can be discussed when its restructuring objectives have been achieved in all its stages.

    Like Bruno a while ago I suggested the same thing and Nicolás also gave his opinion regarding saving the UIO-NYC route but it has to be profitable. An aircraft like the A321LR is suddenly not the solution, maybe a B767-300ER or a B787-8 are smaller than an A332 but I see that it is a more complex issue related to cost-benefit in terms of profit for TAME. The ethnic passenger plays a crucial role on the route and hence it does not matter which plane is used..

  4. Unfortunately this is the typical story of all state airlines, that in the end becomes a burden for all Ecuadorians, because in the end it is those who pay. For decades, this company was run by completely incompetent people who had no idea how to run an airline, worse knowing how to adjust to changes in the market or take advantage of opportunities. Apart, no marketing vision, without any vision of development, It is a typical airline that has no identity or vision, and examples are left over to know where they end. Launching international routes without being able to have a clear development plan, nor have a clear idea of ​​what identity will be given to the airline, is committing corporate suicide. If any person who had been in the head, I would have had some intuition of what it is to drive an airline, maybe the story would be different. The only step that TAME should follow (If I wanted somehow to stay alive), is to stop seeking to be independent, and become a subsidiary of a truly aviation company, but for that to happen, TAME should have someone at the helm who knows how to take the bankruptcy protection step and thus fire all unnecessary employees, return non-own aircraft, cut with all lost operation (the government routes to the east pass them to FAE), y ya entonces tendria algo de valor en «potencial» para saber venderse como una opcion viable para ser fial de algun concorcio que desee una operacion o soporte de rutas en la region, as IAG, AFKLM, LH, DELTA, EMIRATES, etc. They should only see the history of the Cup and its submission to what was Continental, to become something similar. You don't have to invent the wheel, there is no way to survive in this market alone.

  5. Nicholas; but if the route to New York undergoes restructuring during this year, what will happen, what plans will TAME have, the new aircraft or aircraft that will come to cover this route within a year…???
    There are many unknowns that the airline leaves in this case.
    What was the restructuring and homologation of the aircraft fleet?, for both national and international flights…??
    The suspended route should be restructured with more modern aircraft, efficient and that generate less expenses than the current aircraft, the A330 that is going, such as an A321LR that would be a bit uncomfortable due to the hours of travel but less expensive to maintain, or stick with a wide cabin like a B787 which is more comfortable, quieter and uses less fuel as well as other resources, From my point of view, TAME must have a lot of technicality and be very cautious when restructuring this route, which in a year is supposed to start again according to the DGAC resolution..

  6. The inefficiency of the state apparatus I hope as many inoperative people are fired or better that this airline disappear , sell it or rent it ,As an Ecuadorian I feel ashamed .
