sema nin... hii biashara ya usafiri wa ndege hapa East Africa imepamba moto sana... tutegemee ushindani mkubwa sana. Mambo yafuatayo yaweza kutokea ni either kampuni mpya kushindwa kuendelea na biashara au kampuni kubwa zilizowahi kutawala kuendelea kupata hasara kutokana na ushindani kutoka kampun mpya...hivyo kupelekea kupoteza soko na hata kuuza ndege zao kbsa na kupunguza ajira, hasa hasa Kenya Airways, Rwanda airways na ethiopia ... kitakachomvusha kweny ushindan huu ni yule tu mweny business plan nzuri na yule atakaekubali kuendelea na biashara licha ya kupata hasara kipindi hiki cha ushindani. Wazo tu!!
In May 1991, Air Tanzania leased a Ethiopian Airlines N767-200ER, 9 months later it was returned, then there was Alliance Air 1994 to 2000 with a single B747SP (Air Tanzania had 10%, Gov't of Tanzania had 5%), while SAA (South African Airways had 40%) and Uganda Airlines had 10% and the Uganda Government 5%, 30% held in trust. It was a disaster, the accumulated loss was $US 50m in 6 years! flying London (LHR) to Entebbe, Dar es Salaam (DAR) and Kilimanjaro), see photos in Comments.
Now, widebody experiment #3, and still Air Tanzania is NOT ready for a widebody, little connecting/feed traffic (beyond and behind traffic), competition from Kenya Airways, and soon new Uganda Airlines #2 with 2 x A330-900 and 4 x CRJ900?
Then it faces competition at home at DAR from the likes of Emirates, Egyptair, Etihad, Ethiopian, flyDubai, Qatar, Swiss, SAA, Turkish, Rwandair? and they think they can compete with 1-2 B787-8's?
The above airlines have lost of feed for their flights and their 1-stop can be a whole lot cheaper than a non-stop.
This is going to be a national disaster, but President Magufuli will find out very quickly Air Tanzania cannot compete with the BEST.
