Concerned about the impact of Omicron shares, the government and ruling parties have decided to change the measures to reduce the aircraft fuel tax on fuel used in domestic flights. The aircraft fuel tax is 18,000 yen per kiloliter since FISCAL 2011. This fiscal year, we have reduced the price to 9,000 yen as a special measure, based on the actual situation of airlines affected by the new Corona. The government and ruling parties initially decided not to allow this special measure in the next fiscal year, but decided to continue in light of the impact of Omicron stock. Mr. Miyazawa, chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party's Tax Research Council, said, "We will talk about how much we will reduce the amount of reduction in the future," and expressed his intention to continue discussions within the ruling party on the extent of the reduction.

Background

The losses caused by the epidemic to the Japanese aviation industry are immeasurable. A brief introduction to the self-redemption of ANA, the leader of The Japanese aviation industry

(1) Throttling: ANA has formulated a plan to implement salary cuts for 15,000 employees and cancel the winter allowance equivalent to the year-end bonus. Including the previous salary cuts, summer allowance halving and other measures, the income of ANA employees will fall by about 30% on average this fiscal year. In addition, ANA decided to suspend its expansion of routes and arranged for the early retirement of 35 aircraft during the fiscal year.

In order to reduce labor costs, ANA plans to temporarily reduce its workforce by 3,500 employees by fiscal year 2022. In addition to encouraging employees to voluntarily leave or retire early and freezing the recruitment of new employees, ANA is negotiating with large companies such as Toyota Motor Corporation to second employees to work in other companies to achieve the purpose of temporarily reducing personnel.

(2) Due to the long-term shortage of professional talents in Japan's aviation industry, even in the face of operational difficulties caused by the epidemic, Japanese airline companies are still trying to avoid layoffs and retain talents. In the early days of the sharp decline in business, airlines mainly used employee rotation. With the development of the epidemic, we have shared employees with enterprises and administrative agencies in industries that are relatively short of personnel. This is also a common practice among airlines in Japan.

(3) JAL expects that even if the epidemic ends, it will be difficult for domestic and international business travel demand in Japan to return to pre-epidemic levels. To improve the utilization rate of aviation, expanding domestic tourism demand is an important way. Therefore, JAL decided to help all parts of Japan tap into their potential, develop more tourism products, and stimulate tourism demand.

(4) During the epidemic period, train employees. JAL sends flight attendants with a severe shortage of workloads to various parts of Japan, giving full play to their specialties in reception, and helping local governments improve tourism services through training and exchanges. This will not only promote the development of local tourism, but also help flight attendants to acquire more knowledge of sightseeing spots.

(5) Diversified development. The company is reducing the proportion of aviation business, expanding new businesses, and diversifying. JAL is also actively looking for new growth points. In late September 2020, JAL announced that it had signed a cooperation agreement with the American MattEight Drone Company to conduct market research on the drone logistics business in Japan, and intends to use drones to open up a new business for medical supplies express delivery.

Spacious and comfortable personal space for the journey

The emergence of new strains of the virus has cast a shadow of uncertainty on the global aviation industry, which is gradually recovering.

Due to the emergence of the Olmiqueron strain, many countries have strengthened epidemic prevention measures. The U.S. has barred almost all foreign travelers who have stayed in eight southern African countries in a 14-day period and may raise entry testing requirements. Both Japan and Australia have decided to delay plans to open their borders. This will deal a new blow to air travel demand, especially international travel demand. Some analysts pointed out that the global aviation sector may once again encounter fluctuations in demand, especially the recovery of international travel demand, which is already slow to recover, is expected to be further delayed. International rating agency Fitch has said the emergence of covid-19 variants such as Omilon shows that the aviation industry is still facing continued fluctuations in demand, and the agency has lowered its expectations for global air travel demand this year and next.
