Ke koi nui nei nā noho papa kiʻekiʻe i Lebanona, ʻAigupita, Ioredane a me Suria e like me ka nui o nā Qataris a me nā kamaʻāina i hoʻololi i nā hoʻolālā huakaʻi, e waiho ana i nā wahi e like me US, ʻEulopa a me Australia ma hope o ka maʻi maʻi H1N1.
I ka pehu ʻana o nā maʻi maʻi H1N1 i kekahi mau ʻāina Komohana, ua hoʻololi nā mea hoʻomaha he nui i kā lākou hoʻolālā huakaʻi kauwela a ke holo nei i Beirut, Cairo, Alexandria, Amman a me Damaseko, wahi a nā kumu huakaʻi huakaʻi i nehinei.
ʻO nā huakaʻi i kēia mau kūlanakauhale Arab mai Doha ke ʻike nei i kahi "ʻoihana ukana maikaʻi" mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kauwela, wahi a kahi mākaʻikaʻi huakaʻi.
"He paʻakikī loa ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi noho papa mua ma kahi mokulele Qatar Airways i Beirut i kēia mau lā. ʻOiai he koi koʻikoʻi no nā noho papa mua i nā kūlanakauhale ʻē aʻe e like me Cairo, Alexandria, Amman a me Damaseko pū kekahi, ʻaʻole ia i ka nui o ka mea e ʻike ai ma ke ala Beirut, "wahi āna.
ʻO nā mokulele ʻo Qatar Airways i kēia mau kūlanakauhale ʻAraba ka hapa nui o ka hoʻonohonoho papa ʻelua - ka mua a me ka hoʻokele waiwai.
Wahi a nā kumu ʻoihana, ʻo nā wahi e like me Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Lādana, Vienna, Zurich, Gold Coast kokoke i Brisbane a me Florida a me Los Angeles ma US, kahi i hoʻohuli ai i nā mākaʻikaʻi he nui mai Qatar, ʻaʻole i makemake ʻia i kēia manawa ma muli o ka ke piʻi nei ka nui o nā maʻi maʻi maʻi H1N1 ma laila.
"Ua nui kaʻu mau hoʻopau ʻana i nā tiketi i kēia mau kūlanakauhale i nā pule i hala. Ua hoʻololi ka nui o nā ʻohana Qatari i kā lākou hoʻolālā huakaʻi kauwela, makemake i nā kūlanakauhale Arab ʻoiai ʻo Beirut a me Kairo, i nā wahi hoʻomaha o South East Asia, ʻEulopa, ʻAmelika a me Australia, "wahi a ka luna o kahi hui huakaʻi alakaʻi.
ʻO ka uku tiketi, koe wale nō ma ka papa mua, he 15% a 20% haʻahaʻa ma mua o ka makahiki i hala, wahi a nā kumu. ʻO kēia ma muli o ka hāʻule ʻana o ka noi no ka huakaʻi leʻaleʻa ma muli o ka hoʻokele waiwai honua.
ʻO ka ʻoihana mokulele honua i hoʻopilikia maikaʻi ʻia e ka emi ʻana o ka hoʻokele waiwai e hōʻeha hou ʻia e ka laha ʻana o ka puaʻa. No ka ʻoihana mokulele hiki mai kēia i ka manawa maikaʻi loa.
Ma ke ao holoʻokoʻa, paʻakikī nā mokulele e hoʻokō i ka hāʻule ʻana o ka noi, ma hope o ka nui o nā poho ma muli o ka piʻi ʻana o ke kumukūʻai wahie jet i ka makahiki 2008 a me ka hopena o ka hoʻokele waiwai.
No ka makahiki 2009, manaʻo ʻo IATA i nā poho o ka honua ma mua o $4.5bn no ka ʻoihana mokulele, he kiʻi i manaʻo maikaʻi ʻia i nā pule e hiki mai ana inā laha ka maʻi H1N1 ma ka ʻāina a i ʻole he piʻi wikiwiki o nā hihia i hoʻopilikia ʻia.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- Although there is a heavy demand for first class seats to other Arab cities such as Cairo, Alexandria, Amman and Damascus as well, it is not to the extent one sees on the Beirut route,” he said.
- Industry sources said destinations such as Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, London, Vienna, Zurich, Gold Coast near Brisbane and Florida and Los Angeles in the US, which used to attract many tourists from Qatar, are ‘less preferred' this time round due to the rising number of H1N1 flu cases there.
- Ke koi nui nei nā noho papa kiʻekiʻe i Lebanona, ʻAigupita, Ioredane a me Suria e like me ka nui o nā Qataris a me nā kamaʻāina i hoʻololi i nā hoʻolālā huakaʻi, e waiho ana i nā wahi e like me US, ʻEulopa a me Australia ma hope o ka maʻi maʻi H1N1.
