Dve veľké letecké spoločnosti v USA vyhlásili bankrot | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Dve z pätice najväčších amerických leteckých spoločností vyhlásili bankrot. Delta a Northwest Airlines majú už dlhšie finančné problémy, najnovšie ich zasiahli stúpajúce ceny palív. Vypočujte si správu Guta Hariho. Just about every airline in America has been struggling since that fateful day when two planes crashed into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre four years ago. Overall, the industry has lost forty billion dollars. Delta has been trying to live with large debts in a tough environment where cheaper airlines have been competing for its customers. North-West has found it particularly hard to meet its benefits and pensions obligations and has been wrestling with a bitter strike over the summer. But what's undoubtedly tipped these two major players over the edge is the recent hike in the price of oil, passed onto them as cripplingly expensive jet fuel. Delta says that applying for what is known as Chapter Eleven protection will help it to address financial challenges and support ongoing efforts to become a simpler, more efficient and cost-effective airline. Both will be hoping to emerge from this with fewer financial commitments and a clearer strategy for surviving in a tough and difficult market.
