Government to take over Jat debt

Public to foot bill for Jat Airways debt

Over a year after Serbia’s national carrier Jat Airways was transformed into Air Serbia, the Serbian government is seeking parliamentary approval to take over and repay debt amassed by Jat over the years. Under the agreement signed between the Serbian government and Etihad Airways for the latter’s minority takeover of Jat, the government has to provide 33.5 million euros in cash payments and a further 32 million to cover debt towards local companies, 80% of which are state owned. However, according to the draft bill, the obligations now total a whopping 155.3 million euros. The debt, which will ultimately be reimbursed by Serbian taxpayers, is owed to Belgrade Airport, maintenance company Jat Tehnika, the Directorate of Civil Aviation, the Serbia and Montenegro Air Traffic Services Agency, the Petroleum Industry of Serbia and several state owned banks.

According to the draft bill, the government will make part of the payments directly to Air Serbia, since the airline has already covered outstanding debt owed towards several local companies. The agreement signed between Etihad Airways and the Serbian government has been criticised over the state’s obligation to take over all of Jat’s debts. However, defending the move, the Serbian Prime Minister, Aleksandar Vučić, has said, “Have we not taken these measures, Jat would have been shut down, which would have caused economic and social problems”. The proposed bill is being urgently ushered into parliament, meaning lawmakers will debate the proposed legislation during the next sitting of parliament.

During its last year of operation, Jat Airways, for the first ten months of 2013, and Air Serbia, for the last two months of the same year, recorded a loss of 73 million euros. The Serbian carrier accumulated an operational loss of 45 million euros during 2013, while the remaining 28 million came as a result of errors made in previous financial reports. In an earlier statement, Air Serbia’s CEO, Dane Kondić, said, “We now turn to the future and thanks to our partnership with Etihad Airways and the strong support from the Serbian government, Air Serbia now has a strategy for recovery as well as the foundations for creating a profitable and strong company”. In line with earlier reports, Air Serbia expects to end the year with a profit of at least one million euros. Full financial results will be made public in May 2015.

      Yes i have! I have booked a flight VIE-BEG-VIE for 190EUR! Austrian for the same date 480 EUR! Today the same route also with Air Serbia 330EUR, the flight is in two weeks! If you want a cheap price you have to book one month earlier! But it is shamed, if you think that fly niki has prices between 60-100 EUR on the same route before there cut the route!!!

    2. Actually, if you want to find a more decent fare on Austrian then book it via lh.com

      This February Austrian had a fare for €481 on their website but it was €239 via Lufthansa's one.
      Air Serbia was €231... fail. At least with Austrian you get to fly on a jet or a Q400.

    3. Anonymous13:18

      You are saying OS was 239 and JU was 231, so how is that a "fail" for JU? I don't see a logic there. Or is it that you used to support JU before and now you don't?

      Delete
    4. Well, Air Serbia sends its Atr to Vienna which is much cheaper to operate than the Fokker birds. Plus, I am sure Austrian's overall cost is higher than the JU one, yet both of these airlines charge the same price between these two cities.

      Even though I like the Atr, it's much noisier and less comfortable than the Fokkers. One would expect JU to be cheaper.

    5. So... logically speaking, people would go for OS rather than JU.

      Opšte je poznato da je OS uništio JU na liniji za Beč. Kao prvo, ima vise frekvencija, ima jaku bazu te nudi vise mogućnosti za presedanje a kao što je Nemjee već spomnuo i cene su im približno iste.

      Letovi sa JU su dobri za njihova presedanja ali OS je vise gasterbajter-friendly sa onim letovima oko 15.00 i 18.00. Kao što je ovde već spomenuto, JU letovi sa Erbasom ili Boingom nemaju više od 60 putnika što je katastrofalno.

    158 milijuna = javni dug koji će Srbija platiti bankama, NIS-u, nabavljačima, aerodromima...
    16 milijuna = otpremnine za višak zaposlenih u Jatu platila Srbija

      Would be easier to close JAT and open new company. This way we got company that will be returning its invest 500 years if profits stay the same as projected this year, around 1 mil euro. This is too much for an airline, and when will AirSERBIA start to pay for services at BEG? Or do we have to pay another 500 mil euro for new terminal, because it won't be built from operational revenue?

      Even if you closed down JAT you would still have to repay its debt. And what would you do with a new airline set up by the government? They would put a moron as CEO, you would run into the same problem, you would loose all your slots, IATA, ICAO codes, loose all international agreements. Etihad pays for abosultelty everything except for old debts and the obligation the government made in the deal which is public. Half of the things Purger wrote are not true like paying for aircraft and training, which is completely false and he based on I don't know what. Also, remember who got JAT out of the deal with Airbus for 8 aircraft. Have you created a new company you would still have to pay for it.

      Does anyone know for how long will state will allow for not paying airport services and for how long will fuel be cheaper? Is it defined in contract, or do we have to pay for it alongside with 25 mil for subsidy? I mean, tickets are now cheaper, but do we have to spend millions on company that will make most traffic from transit passengers (foreigners)? I know it will boost revenue of BEG through taxes and commercial services (shops and etc.) but I still think it's too much.

      Dvije upitne stavke od njih 30 je "pola toga nije točno"?

      I da, Air Serbia plaća leasing Etihadu, a platila je i školovanje Etihadu u Abu Dhabiu, te Air Berlinu (Etihadovoj firmi) u Njemačkoj (kao i preuzeđenja aviona). Obzirom na iskustva sa plaćama top managementa koji uopće nisu definirani nego navedeni kao "pošteni", te hitnost školovanja i nabavke ti troškovi niti su mali, niti su na razini tržišnih cijena, nego vrlo vjerovatno daleko iznad. Zato i jesto to tu dodatno napisano, a ne kao dio investicija koje se gore spominju.

      This is Jat's debt, and Serbian Govt. agreed to take it over as a prerequisite in order to sign the deal with Etihad and create Air Serbia.
      While nobody is happy about that much money paid by taxpayers, what would be alternative? That is the price paid for incompetent, politically appointed previous managements of Jat Airways. I would love to see the investigation of the dealings of all Jat's CEO's from 2000 onwards, most of them deserved to spend some time behind the bars for negligence and mismanagement.
      But that's up to the courts.
      So in order to sell such a loss making airline for decades, you would have to sacrifice something (a lot of money in this case). But we would continue to pay that money anyway shall Jat continued to exist in previous form and make losses.
      At least that has stopped, and Air Serbia is on the way to start making profit soon.
      As of some comments from our friends from Croatia, prepare yourself to take the very same steps if you want to sell OU to anyone, and if you find the interested investor because they will request the clear sheets, and some creative accounting popular across our entire region will not be allowed.
      Great day to anyone!

      Srbija je bila izdvojila 6,5 milona eur za otpremnine a potrosila duplo manje od tog iznosa, odakle 16milona??

      Delete
    14. Anonymous14:17

      Nevjerojatan si lažac. Ali nevjerojatan.

      Najpre nam poturaš da je (158+16+0,5+23+43+73+14+7+7) = 451. U stvarnosti to iznosi 341 milijun, fulao si tek za nekih 110 milijuna.

      Potom to sve prezentiraš kao iznose u EUR iako je večina službenih brojki bila objavljena u USD.

      Ali ono najgore od svega - i to si več ko zna koji puta učinio - je da si iste vrste troškova ponovio po dva ili tri puta kako bi napuhao svoj proračun na neke silne stotine milijuna i potom im još dodao 110 milijuna kao bonus.

      Za tvoju obavijest, gubitak od 70 milijuna u 2013-oj (koji ti nazivaš nekakvim "čudom") obuhvača onih 23 milijuna iz restrukturiranja i 43 milijuna premoščenih gubitaka. Dakle, 67 milijuna si namjerno udvostručio.

      Dalje, 14 milijuna direktnih subvencija ne postoje. ASL ne dobija nikakvu živu lovu od države več dobija oproste na aerodromu i na into-plane diferencijalu kod NIS. Buduči da si te oproste naveo zasebno, ovih si 14 milijuna jednostavno izmislio.

      Leasing ZRAKOPLOVA (a ne aviona), školovanje posada i plače senior managementa plača ASL iz svojeg tekučeg poslovanja. Ništa od toga ne plača država tako da tu imamo još 7 milijuna koje si izmislio a potom im dodavao neke buduče stavke koje su potpuno besmislene.

      Kada podvučemo crtu, tvojih 451 milijun prvo postaju 341 jer ne umiješ računati. Potom se tih 341 umanjuje za još 87 milijuna koje si izmislio ili navodio po 2-3 puta u svom proračunu kako bi napuhao brojke do neke razine koja bi zazvučala poput kakve senzacije.

      Tako nam ostaje 254 milijuna od kojih se 174 odnosi na čiščenje dugova Jata koji su svakako morali jednom biti očiščeni, potpuno nevezano uz Etihad.

      Na kraju vidimo da se iz tvog čitavog proračuna na potporu ASL odnosi 80 milijuna (73 milijuna gubitka u 2013-oj i 7 milijuna otpisa na BEG u 2014-oj). Pri tome se gubitak iz 2013-te odnosi na ASL samo u posljednjem kvartalu dok se u prva tri kvartala odnosi na Jat.

      Tvoj proračun je hrpa laži koju si več ranije prosipao ovdje i trebalo bi te biti sram zbog toga.

      @ INN-NS:

      ASL je iznajmljivala (po komercijalnoj ceni) pilote od Air Berlina kako bi premostila rupu koja je postojala u periodu obuke njihovih pilota za A319/A320 (koja je, opet, rađena u Berlinu). Takođe im je nedostajalo pilota zbog velikog povećanja operacija. Mislim da još uvek imaju neki mali procenat iznajmljenih pilota ali će vremenom sve popuniti svojim ljudima. Logično je da su iznajmljivali od Air Berlina jer je u pitanju drugi član EY "familije" koji je pri tome rezao troškove i verovatno imao višak pilota.

      Dakle, nije nikakav skandal nego je potpuno normalna stvar što su u jednom periodu letele iznajmljene posade. Onaj ko od toga pravi skandal je zlonameran ili glup, ali ništa pametniji nije onaj ko mu na to vrišti kako nikakvog iznajmljivanja nije bilo. Pre nego što kreneš da "braniš" ASL, raspitaj se malo o stvarima koje ti striko i Dodik možda nisu ispričali.

Kada je drzava vlasnik, gubitak kompanije placaju poreski obaveznici. Kada je privatna kompanija gubitnik, tada posao gubi menadzment, opada broj zaposljenih, prodaje se deo kompanije, cela ili bankrotira... U ovom slucaju dzep poreskih obaveznika ostaje nedirnut... Ova vlada ocigledno postavlja ekonomoju sa ostalim u tom kontekstu na svoje mesto. Sve sto se proglasava nacionalnim interesom, a ne stvara profit, placaju obaveznici poreski naravno. Kada se povecava porez zbog gubitaka, tada su najglasniji pristalice nacionalnih interesa. Ideologija je mekinje za narod a pojedince pretvara u licemer i siri socijalnu hipokratiju. Zdrav biznis jeste privatan biznis koji je pod kontrolom adekvatnih zakona. Srbija ide napred a putnicka avijacija jeste Prime exsample kako dalje.

      When JU800 was departing just before midnight in the summer (2355), the unofficial delay was so that crew were not payed for 3 days work but rather 2. JU crew are still payed in the old Jat system of flight allowances, which means a certain amount is payed per flying day (0000 - 2359). This delay is always made up inflight.

      As for the return (JU801), the organisation in AUH doesnt seem the best, 1 flight I did, the flight was fully boarded 25 minutes before STD but a delay from EY ground staff delivering flight documents resulted in doors being closed 10 minutes after STD. Add pushback, taxi time and hold at the runway, we landed 15 minutes behind STA in BEG. My next flight (JU801) was delayed as the computers were slow to respond during the boarding process for a full flight, making the boarding longer to complete. Neither did I find it impressive the Arab guy (prob Egyptian) asking his colleague (who was probably Indian) if he spoke 'that' language (Serbian). In question was if a wheelchair bound pax who didnt speak english was able to climb stairs as like always the ac in AUH is always on remote stand, which as well took a few minutes on it self to accomodate.

      Oh and the security screening in AUH is a horribly frustrating experience to put it nicely. No sense of urgency to accomodate pax on tight connections to fast track the security line (which was for flights which had already started boarding - my case with 5 others bound for BEG), resulting in arguing with staff. I am yet to have an AUH flight that departed or landed in BEG on its scheduled time. Nothing over 30 minutes, but 12:15 is 12:15, not 12:30, not 12:20, not 12:35, but 12:15.

    Danas je Rojters objavio da je Rublja devalvirala za 20 odsto i da ljudi čekaju u redovima da zamene Rublje u Evre i Dolare.

    Evo neki dan se tu vodila rasprava. Kako će to da utiće na nas? Mislim krediti, pa letovi za Moskvu, pa ruski kapital, pa Rusi kao jedna od 3 najveće turisičke nacije u Srbiji, pa NIS i kerozin za Er Srbiju...?

      Devalvirana Rublja
      = manja kupovna moć Rusa = manje će Rusa da leti i u turizam = nije dobro za nas

      = slaba Rublja = problem sa investicijama i sadasnjim kapitalnim investicijama = NIS i druge ruske investicije u Srbiji u problemima

      = preskupa nafta koja se ne isplati da se vadi = manje ruske nafte = NIS u problemima

      = kreditna linija staje = što ako će opet da zatreba za penzije i plate, odakle?

      A Europa i Amerika pamte. Pamte tko nije stao iza njih u Ukrajni, gdje se Putin šepurio na vojnoj paradi, kako se nije htelo da se podrže sankcije...

    A few facts that seem to have been lost in all of this:-

    1. The accumulated debt of JAT would have had to have been paid, irrespective of any strategic investment in the airline. If it had of gone into bankruptcy, the taxpayer would have had to pay this debt - so the taxpayer is no worse off.

    2. If it had of gone into bankruptcy, 2000 people would've gone into unemployment.

    3. it didn't and now people are still employed, new people are being employed and everyone is paying taxes and contributing to the state bgt

    4. The airport has doubled the number of people passing through it and the value of the airport for any future privatization has more than doubled

    5. As for the leasing of aircraft, all 10 airbus have been leased through BBAM and CIT - NOT Etihad. A simple check with either of these 2 lessors will confirm this.

    6. Etihad's entry into JAT ensured that the USD23.8m deposit paid by the old Yugoslav govt to Airbus in 1998 has been rescued and offset against the purchase of new NEO aircraft. Most importantly, it also ensured that Airbus did not pursue a USD500m lawsuit against the govt of Serbia for breach of contract after they did not go forward with their purchase of aircraft.

    7. All training of pilots was done by airberlin at commercial rates - not at some inflated rates.

    It obviously suits some out there to continue with this misinformation.

      6 = 5

      and 6. So Serbia could for same amount of money buy those planes and than sell it to someone, or sell and lease back tham. Or get deal to buy ATR's or something else. No, need for Etihad to be involved. And for sure that is not reason to get into that huge investment, much bigger rhan those 28 millions of deposit or some other millions as fee (and for sure it is not half of billion, what is much more than 6 planse price is)

      @Anon at 5:19PM:

      OMG here we go again, zombie h8trs are back. All of this has been rectified before, so let’s protect our brains from hungry zombies once again:

      1. “if that would be not enough…” LOL tiny word “if” proves you have no idea you are talking about. Rewind 12 to 18 months and see how almost penniless old JAT was during its deathbed days. There is no IF!
      And then you continue “…it would be not paid”. WTF?!?! This is NOT how it works! Do you have any idea about financial guarantees?!? GoS would be left holding the bag!!! This alone proves you have no business discussing this topic! But you want to be humiliated all the way, so be it:

      2. WTF how could have (in case of a bankruptcy) JAT pilots just step out from 733, casually walk over to Wizzair and get A320 job?!? Do you have ANY idea many had a hard time switching to Airbus even though extensive paid training was provided to them?!?!

      3. This is an airline blog, we are not going to dissect every other topics.

      4. What?!?! Totally wrong, privatization is possible! New owner does not have to give any discounts, contractually that would be GoS to take care of! Just bake it into a contract, what’s the big deal? And WTF do you mean “Serbia does not have the money to pay for that”?!? Well they just took responsibility for that.

      5 & 6. What A6 registrations?!?! Air Serbia does not have any A6 registered planes, you have been asleep for a looong time. Look at the links you provided to tell you the current state. And what’s your problem with maintenance in AUH? That’s C check, other stuff is done in BEG. Do you even care to think about C and D check capabilities, or even how many EU and US carriers outsource similar jobs to low cost MRO’s around the world? Didn’t think so.

      7. You have a hard time separating “pilot” from “cabin crew” or “management” training. What was done by AB and what by EY? You have no idea, don’t you?

      There...feels good to take out another zombie h8tr...

      Everyone knows that Air Serbia had fleet shortage inherited from JAT and could not immediately get all 10 Airbus planes. Etihad initially assisted with those two A319 including the pilots. That was not a secret and planes were reregistered long time ago

    Anonymous at 5:19 you must be one of the useless ex-JAT employees that got fired and now can't stand to see Air Serbia flourishing.

    Second, your ''facts'' are wrong...

    A6-SAA, now YU-API is leased directly from BBAM. The period you are talking about was the interim solution until JU pilots were trained to operate YU registered aircraft. It is the same case with ex-SAB - now YU-APJ.

    This is an aviation blog, not a political tabloid, give it a rest and vent your frustrations elsewhere and lets the rest of us enjoy aviation in its glory.
