Carbon emissions of Provincial Administrative Regions from the airlines in China

This paper seeks to calculate the overall emissions of China’s 413 main domestic routes in 2018, containing the Landing and Take-Off (LTO) emissions and Climb/Cruise/Descent (CCD) emissions. First, the standard calculation method of LTO emissions proposed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is applied to calculate the LTO emissions of 413 routes and 40 airlines. Next, the modified Fuel Percentage Method (MFPM) is used to calculate the CCD emissions of main aircraft types at various distances. Then the overall emissions are split into the Provincial Administrative Regions (PARs) on the routes to discuss the probable carbon compensations, which is the core to build an aviation carbon trading mechanism. China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, and Air China are the top three airlines in emissions. Guangdong has the most carbon emissions from airlines, but it may get the third most carbon compensation from the airlines.

Aviation Risk Management to Comparative Performance in Air China with American Airlines

<p>This paper presents a model comparison between the Air China and American Airline. The aim of this study is to research on strong and weak points of these companies on the grounds. Both the countries are from in the continent of Asia and North America and the world. It also concentrates on the domestic and international aviation sector to comparative both Air China and American Airline with political and economic volatility. The sample of SWOT is used to test indexes and to measure volume of strengths and weakness to both the firms. The model represents one of the tools of Aviation Risk Management to evaluate Air China through find all the elements of development and address the weaknesses and shortcomings of the Chinese aviation company in order to compete with the major international airlines.<strong></strong></p>

The Operational Impacts of Government Restructuring of the Airline Industry

In July 2000, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) called for the consolidation of the 10 state-owned air carriers into three groups, headed by Air China, China Eastern, and China Southern. A few months later in November 2000, the State Council of China mandated that this consolidation be accomplished by the third quarter of 2001. As part of this mandate, the CAAC yielded its management control of air carriers with its focus now being on safety and regulatory issues. Furthermore, the CAAC was required to divest itself of assets held in many of the state-owned airlines and its interests in more than 120 airports around China, except Beijing Capital Airport. Utilizing data from the International Civil Aviation Organization for 2003 and 2004, this study investigates the operational impacts of this industry restructuring. The relative operational efficiency of Air China, China Eastern, and China Southern is compared to a sample of Asian, European and United States flag carriers. Data envelopment analysis is utilized to derive efficiency scores for individual airlines. The operational efficiency model used in this study is derived from that utilized by Schefczyk (1993). The underlying structural drivers of efficiency are then investigated via a tobit analysis with implications for managerial policy discussed.
