Mr.Business

我理解的Swap就是进入一个合约，将那笔借来的美元的兑换设定为1美元兑换RM3.80，现在AirAsia还钱时，1美元是兑换RM3.20, 因此AirAsia每还1美元就赚RM0.60。

A currency swap (or cross currency swap) is a foreign exchange agreement between two parties to exchange a given amount of one currency for another and, after a specified period of time, to give back the original amounts swapped.

AirAsia X in US$2b deal with Airbus
By Anna Maria Samsuddin

BUDGET long-haul carrier AirAsia X has firmed up orders for 10 additional units of the A330-300, with a list value of US$2 billion (RM6.4 billion), bringing the airline's total order for the aircraft to 25 units.

Under an agreement signed with European-based airframe maker Airbus, the aircraft will be delivered progressively over the next five years.

Chief executive officer Azran Osman-Rani said the additional orders are in line with the airline's aggressive network expansion plans.



It aims to introduce more new medium-haul routes in Australia, China as well as India - targeting cities such as Amritsar, Poona, Jaipur, Calcutta and Ahmedabad.

The airline also plans to start flights to Japan by late 2009 or mid-2010.

To serve its long-haul networks, he said the carrier may buy 25 new generation widebody planes, either the A350s or the Boeing B787s.

"We now have more planes in our arsenal to ramp up our global route network. We will have real scale to dominate Asia Pacific over the next five years," he said at the agreement signing ceremony, witnessed by Transport Minister Datuk Ong Tee Keat in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.

Meanwhile, Azran said AirAsia X is also looking at buying or leasing two long-range A340s for its long-haul flights to London's Stansted Airport, scheduled to take off by the fourth quarter of this year.

"We've got UK and Malaysian government approvals and airport support. Everybody is ready to receive us ... but this depends on aircraft availability," he said.

AirAsia X, which commenced flights in November last year and had carried some 120,000 passengers, has already placed orders for 15 A330s, two of which will be delivered later this year and another two in 2009.

It now flies from Kuala Lumpur to Australia's Gold Coast and to Hangzhou in China using one leased plane.

Airbus chief operating officer John Leahy said the AirAsia group is reshaping the future of the Asia Pacific air transport industry.

"The long term confidence of AirAsia X in the long haul, low-cost model is inspirational and we are delighted to see this further endorsed by the A330."

Meanwhile, on the latest development on Malaysia Airline's six A380s order, Leahy expressed confidence that the national carrier will not cancel its order.

"No, we are not discussing a cancellation at this point. We don't want to comment on ongoing discussions and negotiations but I'll be hopeful that we'll have something to announce in the not-too-distant future," he added.

Branding:
AirAsia among world's most innovative firms

AIRASIA Bhd has been recognised as one of the world's most innovative companies by Fast Company magazine, the only Asean brand and the only airline to make it to the "Fast 50" list.

Other notable companies include Google, Nike, Facebook, Apple, Disney, GE, BMW and IBM.

AirAsia ranked number 43 this year on the "Fast 50" list, announced in the March 2008 issue of Fast Company.

From green consumer-products phenomenon Method to 100-year-old Corning, which spends US$2 million (RM6.38 million) each workday on R&D, the list celebrates companies that are redefining the rules of business through new ideas.

Twelve of the 50 firms are based outside the US. Fifteen of them are based in and around the Silicon Valley.

"This is a feat we are very proud of, considering we are placed in the same platform as some of the most recognised brands in the world. We are humbled by this news as we've evolved from a Malaysian brand to an Asean brand within a short span of six years and to be recognised on the global front by the coveted Fast Company magazine, is indeed very rewarding," AirAsia group chief executive officer Datuk Tony Fernandes said in a statement.

Fast Company editors described AirAsia as "innovative down to its corporate bones".

"Most passengers think of it as one carrier, but it's actually a co-branded collection of several, a unique structure Tony Fernandes devised to allow AirAsia to set up hubs in three countries (Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia)," it said.

It also credited AirAsia for operating costs that are the lowest of any airline in the world, and so are its fares.

Previous awards won by AirAsia include "Airline of the Year 2007" by the Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation (CAPA) and the "Best Low Cost Airline in Asia" by Skytrax Research of London.

Fast Company's final 50 were selected from a list of 300 finalist companies. The magazine placed a high premium on companies that had demonstrated significant innovation over the past year. Actual rankings were determined by vote by a panel of editors and writers.

Fast Company is a monthly business magazine that reports on innovation, digital media, technology, change management, leadership, design and social responsibility. It was launched in November 1995 by Alan Webber and Bill Taylor, two former Harvard Business Review editors.

嚴重虧損‧美國ATA廉航倒閉

國內 頭條新聞  2008-04-04 08:10

ATA航空面對嚴重虧損，難以繼續運作。
（吉隆坡）美國第10大及知名廉價航空公司──ATA航空週四（4月3日）宣佈結束營業，停止所有運作及取消現有及未來的航班。

這項宣佈也導致超過2200名員工面臨失業，ATA航空也表示不再提供客戶預購機票服務。

ATA航空公司在文告中說，所有乘搭ATA航班抵達芝加哥中途國際機場的乘客將在週四早上乘搭班機回國，所有員工也受促不必上班。

公司說，在面對嚴重虧損下，難以繼續運作。

“ATA航空客戶受促尋求其它航空的服務。”

公司表示，那些使用信用卡購買機票的客戶，必須聯絡其信用卡銀行或旅遊代理，尋求退還未繳付機票或已過賬的款項。

公司說，至於那些用現金或支票直接繳付給ATA的客戶，目前不能索求退款。

在這之前，ATA航空公司申請破產保護，成為美國第一家申請破產保護的廉價航空公司。據報導，燃油價格持續攀升導致運營成本增加，加上其他廉價航空公司的競爭壓力不斷增大，是ATA航空公司申請破產保護的主要原因。

行李管理費詳情
亞航7日宣佈
（吉隆坡3日訊）亞洲航空（AIRASIA，5099，主板貿易）將在4月7日，宣佈行李管理費詳情。
一般預計，亞航將征收每件行李2至3令吉費用。

根據亞航所發出的邀請函顯示，總執行長拿督東尼費南德斯將在本月7日中午12時，召開圓桌匯報會，向媒體講解旗下所有航線的行李管理費用。

早前報導指出，亞航將在短期內，向乘客征收行李附加費，減緩高油價帶來的衝擊。

該公司高級商務副總裁陳凱霖今年初說，今年內將征收行李費，每件行李收費或2至3令吉。

她說，一旦落實行李費，也將同時調降機票價格。

東尼去年底曾指出：“與其向每位乘客征收燃油附加費，不如向攜帶行李的乘客征收，這樣比較合理。”

他說，行李越多，飛機的燃油消耗就越大，也需要更多員工搬運行李。

另一方面，東尼今日在曼谷透露，最早將在今年10月啟飛印度，以迎合日增的旅遊需求。

他指出，計劃從吉隆坡飛往印度南部的馬杜拉及科欽，及啟動曼谷至加爾各答航線。

東尼也透露，聯號公司亞航長程（Airasia X）也有意開啟印度北部阿木里查及迪拜航線。

美或衰退·廉航受惠 亚航乐观看待需求 2008/04/04 10:10:53
●南洋商报


（曼谷3日讯）美国经济可能衰退，廉价航空公司反而将从中受惠，我国著名区域廉价航空公司亚洲航空（AirAsia，5099，主板贸服股）就是一个很好的例子。


亚洲航空总执行长拿督东尼费南德斯今日指出，由于美国经济放缓，预料将有许多乘客将改为搭乘廉价航空，因此对航空市场的需求保持乐观态度。

他说：“当经济衰退时，人们在节省开销时想到的第一件事，就是削减旅游及娱乐休闲的开支，所以他们可能会设法改买较便宜的机票，改搭廉价客机。”

“所以显而易见的是，美国经济衰退，我们反而将从中受惠（更多客机乘客改搭廉价航空公司）。”

东尼也预期，亚洲国家预料将进一步开放廉价航空市场，允许更多的廉价客机使用它们的机场。

“未来的6年内，您将会看到亚洲的天空会有很大的改变，但我不认为，任何人必须对这些转变感到害怕，因为大家各有各的市场。”

东尼说：“航空领域是一个与政治因素息息相关的领域，但我们（航空业者）必须保持正面的态度。”

他预测，亚洲的廉价航空领域，预计将较美国及欧洲的廉价航空市场更为乐观。

亚洲数码媒体推广品牌 诺基亚大马称冠 2008/04/02 17:54:06
●南洋商报


(吉隆坡2日讯）全球最大手机品牌诺基亚（Nokia）膺选为大马“杰出数码媒体推广品牌”，而3家本地流动电讯公司则紧随其后，联同亚洲航空（AirAsia，5099，主板贸服股），成为大马5大最广受数码媒体推广的品牌。


除了大马，诺基亚也成为香港及新加坡最广受推广和认知的品牌。

数码网络居次

在“杰出数码媒体推广品牌”排名大马10大的品牌当中，3大流动电讯公司的排名分别是第二的数码网络（DiGi，6947，主板基建股）、第三的明讯（Maxis）及第四的天地通（Celcom），亚洲航空排名第五。

接下来依序为TM Net、马电讯（TM,4863，主板贸服股）、蚬壳（Shell，4324，主板工业产品股）、汇丰银行（HSBC）及国家石油（Petronas）。

全球领先的市场透视及资讯公司TNS颗拍《Digital Media》杂志，公布以上名为“杰出数码媒体推广品牌”的研究结果。

这项研究乃市场首次进行，主要探讨亚洲区互联网使用者对以数码媒体推广的认知度及其成效。

TNS在6个市场共访问了3千零五名年龄介于15至39岁的亚洲区互联网使用者，分别是香港（501人）、中国（498人）、台湾（500人）、新加坡（500人）、大马（505人）及泰国（501人）。

其中，大马受访者是505个由TNS 6th dimension网上小组抽取的马来西亚互联网使用。

消费者对各数码推广渠道的可信性各有不同：生产商或品牌网站相比手机短讯和电子游戏内的广告更可靠，他们对后者的广告都持怀疑态度。

各个亚洲市场对数码推广渠道的信任程度差异显著；中国大陆和台湾市场对此信任程度较低，而在马来西亚和泰国则相对较高。

TNS马来西亚董事经理西蒂诺芭雅表示：“马来西亚很多大品牌和广告商，在如何透过数码推广管道提升消费者对其品牌的认识这方面都做得很好，尤其是消费电子产品行业的品牌。”

根据研究结果显示，亚洲使用数码媒体进行推广的品牌中：移动设备和其营运商最经常被回想起的：在6个受访的市场中，诺基亚于一半市场占榜首，而于另外两个市场亦名列首5位。

金融业回想频率高

金融行业在东南亚地区被回想起的频率也相当高。

快速消费品、尤其是速食食品和汽水饮品被回想起的频率，于６个市场中的其中４个排名首5位。

在马来西亚，专属网页是最广泛被回想起而用于市场推广的数码媒体类型。有64％受访者表示曾经浏览多个在研究中名列前茅的品牌专属网页。

马来西亚受访者除了记得他们所看过的内容之外，对此还很接受－83％受访者表示看过某品牌利用数码媒体的推广之后，对该品牌会更感兴趣。
