Serikali na Hatima ya ATCL

[Mpita Njia]

Hivi kwa nini Precision isipewe ATCL iiendeshe?

 

[Kite Munganga]

Alhajji Mataka alisema hana taarifa kamili kwa kuwa alikuwa likizo na kuelekeza apigiwe meneja operesheni, Mark Manji, ambaye alisema tatizo ni uwanja wa ndege wa Comoro kutokuwa na mafuta.
Mtu mzima hovyoooo!!!

“Wanatudaganya kwamba Comoro hakuna mafuta ya ndege lakini ni uongo kwa sababu mimi nimepiga simu kwa rafiki yangu ambaye anafanya kazi huko na ameniambia mafuta yako ila inasemekana ATCL inadaiwa zaidi ya Euro 30 milioni (Euro moja ni sawa na Sh1,480 za Tanzania) na kampuni ya mafuta,” alisema Ridhwan.

Mbinu za kudanganya za mwaka 47 ATCL bado mnazo mpaka leo?
Desemba mwaka jana zaidi ya mahujaji 1000 walikwama kwa zaidi siku 12 kwenye uwanja wa ndege wa Dar es salaam kutokana na ndege ya ATCLshirika la ndege la Tanzania (ATCL) kushindwa kuruka kutokana hitilafu za kiufundi.

HITILAFU KUU YA KIUFUNDI ATCL NI UONGOZI

Mkuu Kite..., duh kweli kazi tunayo kama hiyo ndiyo maneno ya ATCL manake.....

Unajua kuna kitu kwenye airline industry wamekuwa wanafanya especially kwa hizi regional airlines, kama destination haina fuel supply, then wanaacha mizigo kadhaa (au yote), na wanabeba extra fuel for return leg (with offcourse enough fuel for a diversion airports as per norm) kisha wanapeleka abiria pekee.... hii imezoeleka zaidi kwenye landlocked countries in Africa especially to airports such as Lubumbashi in DRC, South Sudan, Chad etc.... Huko nimeona Kenya Airways wakitumia mpango huu pia Ethiopian

That being said nadhani Mkuu Matakka inabidi afikirie majibu yake tena in the future!!!

Naomba kuwakilisha!!

Something needs to be done, afya na ustawi wa ATCL utaendelea kuwa mashakani.

Sioni sababu ya pesa za walipa kodi ziendelee kupotea bila ya kupatikana tija inayokusudiwa.

 

[Fundi Mchundo]

Hivi tunadhani waSwiss hawakuwa na uwezo wa kuibeba Swiss Air? Inatakiwa ifike mahali tujitue mzigo. Si lazima kuwa na National Airline. Iachwe iende.

ATCL planes' lease about to expire
CHARLES KIZIGHA
Daily News; Thursday,October 16, 2008 @21:00


DOMESTIC schedules of Air Tanzania Company Limited (ATCL) are likely to be seriously disrupted next week when the airline’s two leased Boeing 737 aircraft go abroad for mandatory intensive maintenance.

Sources told the ‘Daily News’ yesterday that the planes were going for the mandatory ‘check C’ because leasing contracts of one of them expire in December and the other in January. The leasing contracts demand that the plane should undergo a return check C which takes between four and eight weeks at a maintenance base selected by the owner of the aircraft.

This means, the schedules of ATCL would remain unstable for several months until current plans to retain the leased Boeing whose contract expire in January succeed and joins the skeleton fleet after the check C.

If ATCL’s efforts to retain the plane whose contract expires in January for one year succeed, it will then go for an ordinary ‘check C’ which is less intensive than the ‘return check C’, meaning that costs would be less.

“Costs of ‘return check C’ and ordinary ‘check C’ range between 800,000 US dollars (920m/-) and 1.5 m US dollars (1.7bn/-) depending on a number of factors including corrosion and this applies on the former check,” sources said.

The sources said that the national flag carrier would be left with two short range Dash 8 aircrafts for domestic routes and a leased Air Bus for regional flights when the two Boeing 737 leave.

The Boeing 737 which lost one of its two engines after sucking an object when it was preparing to take off at Mwanza Airport early last month was still grounded.

A few weeks ago, ATCL experienced similar disruptions when three of its planes developed technical problems and they were therefore grounded for a couple of days.

well... nothing new.. wameimbiwa hawakucheza..

 

[lee shaka]

What a shame!

hata vipofu hawaoni lakini wanasikia.

The whole government is full of corupt.

tutaendelea kuitwa vichwa vya wendawazimu.

At least they should try to merge with Precion Air to form Precision Air Tanzania like what Mramba proposed rather than waste money for few people

 

[Morani75]

heshima mbele wakuu... duh kweli sasa tulipofikia ndio mwisho wa kamba manake inaoneka jamaa wao badala ya kupumzika na kuangalia pale tulipoenda wrong wao wanaswaga kwa kwenda mbele kila mtu apate chake mapema..... Mkuu Ogah, nakumbuka maneno yako ya kwamba bao la kisigino, wow.............

Angalia mkuu Pinda anasema mambo yanaenda vizuri wameshasaini MOU, wow!

Pinda: ATCL privatisation plans in advanced stage

2008-11-07 10:32:28
By Rose Mwalongo, Dodoma

The government has admitted that Air Tanzania Company Limited (ATCL) is in a pathetic state and its operations would soon be privatised to a China firm.

The Prime Minister, Mizengo Pinda, told the National Assembly during the MPs direct questions to the Premier session here yesterday that the process to privatise the airliner was at a very advanced stage and a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on the project had already been signed.

Pinda was responding to a question by Dr Raphael Chegeni (Busega - CCM), who had wanted to know efforts taken by the government to rescue the ailing state-owned air carrier.

The MP claimed that the company was in a very poor state financially, failing even to re-fuel its planes.

In his response, Pinda said ?We need to see the problem in a broader perspective. The Airline had fuel debts from South African Airways and the government managed to settle them. We are working out for a sustainable solution.``

Meanwhile, the government has promised to table a bill on personal disabilities that would see the country ratify the convention for the same in the coming parliamentary session.

Prime Minister Mizengo Pinda told the Parliament yesterday while responding to a question by Zuleikha Yunus Haji (Special Seats - CCM), who had wanted to know when the government would ratify the convention on persons with disabilities.

In his response, Pinda said the government would table the bill in the next session and ensure that MPs endorsed it before the end of the session.

Kuna kingine ambacho hawajawaambia... sasa hivi imekuwa ni chukua chako mapema toka ATCL kabla wachina hawajaingia... I can't even try to mwaga yote yanayoendelea chini ya Mattaka.. naamini yeye na wenzie ni wahujumu uchumi.

ATCL is broke, industry watchers say
CHARLES KIZIGHA
Daily News; Thursday,November 20, 2008 @21:15


The national flag carrier, Air Tanzania Company Limited, is literally broke, and is so heavily indebted to its key suppliers that it is now often forced to cancel its scheduled flights, it has been learnt. According to impeccable sources, ATCL is forced to buy aviation fuel from BP Tanzania with spot cash or stay grounded, all because it is currently owing the firm over $3m (3.6bn/-) in outstanding fuel bills.

The airline’s fuel debt started accumulating during the first quarter of this year, and was flying on borrowed fuel until a ‘few weeks ago’ when BP plugged off its credit facilities. Contacted for comment, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Infrastructure Development, Mr Omari Chambo, said in a curt retort: “The government is working on the issue … we are working on this matter …let us stop there.”

He was reacting to reports of a possible arrangement under which ATCL would get fuel from an oil marketing company on condition that the government guaranteed the deal. The debt-ridden national airline buys aviation fuel with cash collected from its daily sales of tickets and freight charges, both now unreliable sources because of the airline’s frequent flight cancellations.

According to the sources, the airline has entered what industry watchers call a deadly cycle: every time the sales are poor, ATCL fails to operate altogether or delays its flights – and the travellers suffer in the end. The sources also say ATCL at times carries ‘very few’ passengers because of its unreliable flights, costing the airline even more dearly.

“In a number of occasions, an aircraft is available (filled with fuel enough to operate Dar/KIA/DAR) but you find only 10 passengers turning up … instead of 50 … and may be 15 on the return leg,” the sources add. Last Saturday and Sunday, the sources revealed that ATCL failed to operate its Dar es Salaam-Entebbe flight – simply on account of huge operating costs. The daily flight to Johannesburg is unreliable for similar reasons.

 

[Mzee Mwanakijiji]

It is not broke, it is being mismanaged and CCM's government don't give a rat about it; Sasa hivi kina Mattaka na makuwadi wao wa ufisadi wanakwapua kila senti ya shirika hilo wakitaka kuhakikisha Wachina wakija wanaanza zero! Karibu mwaka mmoja mzima tumepiga kelele tumeonekana tuna wivu! Waliache lifilisike na life.

 

[Bulesi]

Mwanakijiji wewe ni mtu makini sana ni lazima uzungumze ukiwa na facts sio unazi!! ATCL haijapewa hata senti tano na serikali toka ndoa yao na SAA ivunjike sasa hizo senti wanakwapua wakina Mattaka zinatoka wapi? Toka mangement hii iingie na board yake mpya wamekuwa wakijitahidi kuhahkikisha ndege zinaruka bila msaada wowote wa serikali walioahidiwa!! Render to CEASAR what is SEASAR'S

Najua hawajapewa hata senti moja na serikali lakini katika akili zao timamu wakaenda kununua madege hayo na kukodisha na kuanzisha safari mpya na kupeleka marubani kwenda kusoma nje, na kuagiza marubani kutoka Uingereza na Ufaransa n.k sasa hizo fedha wanazoanzishia miradi na kutumia namna hiyo zimetoka sayari gani?

 

[Kang]

This Airline is going to die, the sooner we realize this the better for all of us.
The Airline industry is highly competitive, and the margins are very low, that together with our highly inefficient government will either cause the end of ATCL or it will be constantly in need of tax payer money.

 

[Mpita Njia]

Ndege ilikuwa katika kasi ya kuruka, ghafla abira mmoja mwanamama akaona kuwa tairi likuwa linawaka moto, akapiga kelele. Abiria wenzake walioona wakaungana naye na bahati nzuri pilot alifanikiwa kuisimamisha ndege na zimamoto wakawahi kuzima moto.

Ajali hii ilitokea majira ya kati ya saa 8 na 9 alasiri hii. Lakini, abiria niliyezungumza naye anasema tangu walipoondolewa kwenye ndege na kuwekwa kwenye vyumba vya kusubiria, hakuna ofisa yeyote wa ATCL aliyekwenda kuwajulisha lolote zaidi ya kuelezwa kuwa hawatasafiri leo.

Anasema hawajapewa chakula cha mchana licha ya kuwa waliripoti uwanjani saa 4 na safari yao kusogezwa mbele wala hawajataarifiwa watalala wapi.

Hii si siasa, nimeiweka hapa with a view kuwa kutokana na unyetiw ake ndipo itakapoonwa na wengi kwa muda mfupi. Mods can do the transering when they deem fit.
Naomba kuwasilisha

 

[Invisible]

Pole zao, lakini si watu walishaarifiwa kuwa ndege hizi zimechoka sana? Si mara ya kwanza kusikia incidences za namna hii...

RIP ATCL

ILA SINA HAKIKA KAMA TUNA MUDA MREFU KABLA YA JANGA ...NI MFULULIZO WA ALMANUSRA KWA MWAKA SASA. HALI SI NZURI WAJAMENI

WALE STAFF WA MWANZA WANAJUTAHIDI SANA KWA UWEZO WAO LAKINI WHAT DO YOU EXPECT IKIWA WAO PIA HAWAJUI KESHO ITAKUA VIPI?

TUMERUDI MJINI NA TUNAKULA ZE KICK KINAFIKI
