Into the Abyss: As airlines fight to survive, the unknown awaits lessorsSophie Segal, global finance editorMuch has changed between the first quarter of 2020 and the final quarter of 2019. Last year's story was the grounding of the Boeing Max 737 fleet – something felt by only some. This year, there has been an industry-wide demand shock to the system due to the coronavirus. IATA director Alexandre de Juniac calls it an "apocalypse now" scenario.
Carriers around the world are battling for survival, with load factors deeply depressed and capacity slashed as they wade through the violent waters the health crisis has unleashed.
As the coronavirus devastates the airline industry and traffic contracts dramatically, fleet growth is a liability.
Capacity is down by 90% at certain carriers, and for an unpredictable duration. In fact, more than half of the passenger fleet is grounded due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and analysts are starting to suggest that growth could take years to recover.
Some small carriers have shuttered while several others have applied for bankruptcy protection. But to date, there have been no large airline collapses. Even as some carriers receive state relief, it's only a matter of time before aid can no longer replace revenue.
Amid a crisis it is hard to predict just how bad things are or could get, but it is likely that there will be changes to these rankings as the health situation unfolds.
Lessors have spent years building up their liquidity and rainy-day funds. But this is not a rainy day. This is a deluge. As financial providers to their customers, they will shoulder the burden of the crisis the industry faces despite their "hell-or-highwater" leases. And, these rankings will likely shift.
Readers should note that Cirium counts owned as well as managed aircraft in this ranking which means that companies that do not take ownership risk on all assets they manage can still rank highly in the tables.
Cirium is committed to ensuring that it has the most accurate aviation data in the industry and prides itself on sourcing data from the most reliable domains.At present we have many of the world’s leading lessors providing regular fleet portfolio updates with the information in the table below.
