Industry insiders believe that Juneyao Airlines Co.Ltd(603885) the launch of the above series of products is mainly to deal with the limited profitability caused by the outbreak of the epidemic.
From the financial report, the performance of Juneyao Airlines Co.Ltd(603885) is under great pressure after the epidemic, and it has not been completely relieved until the end of 2021. In 2020, Juneyao Airlines Co.Ltd(603885) achieved an operating revenue of 10.102 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 39.69%, and a net profit loss of 474 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 147.64%.
According to the third quarterly report of 2021, the revenue of Juneyao Airlines Co.Ltd(603885) in the first three quarters increased by 27.33% year-on-year to 9.129 billion yuan, and the net profit loss was 49.8111 million yuan; In the third quarter, the revenue increased by 2.67% to 3.081 billion yuan, the net profit decreased by 177.63% and the loss was 152 million yuan. The company said in the announcement of annual performance loss in 2021 that the aviation industry was still affected by the epidemic in 2021, and it was expected that the company’s annual net profit in 2021 would lose about 33000 yuan to 42000 yuan.
Not only Juneyao Airlines Co.Ltd(603885) , in fact, the whole aviation industry is still not completely free from the adverse impact of the epidemic. In order to deal with the difficulties brought by the epidemic, many airlines led by China Eastern Airlines have successively launched a variety of promotional products, which are designed from the aspects of time, space and specific groups, including “flying at will on weekends”, “flying at will in the morning and evening” (personal version and enterprise version) “Enjoy in 567 VIP room”, “fly in the west”, “fly in the bay area”, “children’s Changfei card” and other products.
In this regard, Qi Qi, a civil aviation expert, said in an interview with the reporter of the international finance news, “Due to the epidemic situation, the average price of air tickets is still relatively low. Therefore, this kind of equity cashing products still have value for the airline company and can recover part of the cash flow; in addition, the airline company also needs to have some outstanding places in marketing to attract attention, drive passengers’ awareness of products through promotion and strive to obtain priority in the same industry. ”
In addition, Qi Qi also mentioned that equity products have the problem of diluting the profit margin of airlines, “No matter from the perspective of product itself, profit space or satisfaction, it is not a normal (operation mode) , airlines mainly rely on traditional channels to complete major sales. Therefore, although equity products will alleviate the operation of airlines to a certain extent, they can not play a leading role. In addition, when using such marketing tools, the airline company also needs to pay attention to increasing the flexibility of marketing. How to use flexibly according to the epidemic situation and the changes of local epidemic prevention policies is the ability that the airline company should have at this stage. “
