    Oct 24, 2014 (LBO) – Sri Lanka state airlines, SriLankan and Mihin air to get 150 million US dollars in year 2015 as the last phase for the development of its servicers, President said presenting a budget for 2015 at the parliament.

    He said the two airlines have gained the capacity of handling 25 airlines catering to 44 countries with 90 destinations, through the capitalization and reform made over the past few years.
    “The government believes the capital of the island are the government institutions and government assets.” President Mahinda Rajapaksa said.

    He said 48 out of the total 58 government institutions have been turned to profitable establishment over the past years.

    You mean issue shares ?

    For that they have to reach profitable state. That is very difficult for a national carrier due to many factors. (other than popular mismanagement charges)

    Return on capital invested is very low for an airline i.e. about 4-5 %
    In contrast,  for pharmaceuticals it is 25%  and IT services is around  20%.

    In related industries, when airlines ROIC is a very low 4% it is 44% for travel agents, 20% for GDS ticketing , 15% for freight forwarders and 6% for airports.

    We have other reasons for bad performance in this industry.
    1. We have low fuel efficient aging fleet.
    2. When we dry lease air craft from outside we pump most of our revenue to other parties.
    3. We have to compete with other airlines who get low cost funding and low cost fuel. Hence we can't increase ticket prices.

    ◙ Although we see a loss  , we have to consider indirect income  such as their efforts to  bringing more tourists to the country.

    Low fuel prices and re-fleeting can  take SriLankan Airlines to sound position and ease affecting budget deficit in coming years

    In 2013 SriLankan Airlines, the national carrier of Sri Lanka,  signed an MoU (memorandum of understanding) with Airbus Industries for six A330-300s and four A350-900s. The airline, an all Airbus operator, has chosen the highly reliable A330 and the latest generation A350 XWB (extra wide bodied) aircraft as part of its long-haul fleet renewal.

    The delivery of new, fuel efficient, wide-body fleet  is scheduled  starting from Oct. 2014.
    Arrival of six Airbus A330-300 begins from October 2014  and highly sophisticated , very high fuel efficient, bran new four Airbus A350-900 will arrive in 2017.

    At the moment SriLankan has 6 high fuel burning A340-300   in its fleet , one time long haul favourites, quickly became obsolete due to arrival of fuel efficient 777 & A330s.
    These 4 engined A340 s have been the headache for our airline due to its very low fuel efficiency and was one of the main reason for its high losses.  

    Jet fuel accounts for 47% of SriLankan’s operating expenditure . In the financial year ended on 31 March 2013, SriLanka’s aircraft fuel cost was Rs. 63.75 billion.

    They procure about 65% of the jet fuel locally at high cost (with the taxes and other levies) whereas some others operate from places where fuel is cheaper.  

    Taking  fuel cost as at 337 USC/gal SriLankan  planned to become profitable in 2017 and at the moment the price has gone down to 270 range. If this price levels remains for next few years it will be an added bargain for our airline.

    The first brand new A 330-343,   4R-ALL  is going to arrive this month as planned and it will start a new chapter in our air transport indusstry.  It is the 1564th of A330 production line and powered with two RR Trent 772B-60 engines.
