Privatization: Problem or Opportunity?

fateful day has arrived. Without really knowing why, the government started to privatize the public body that managed, with a proven success, the English airports and air navigation, as well as other airports in various parts of the world. In this article, I will briefly some details of this process before going on to give my opinion on the subject, with particular emphasis on our airport. I hope therefore also encourage yours.

If you ask me, illogical. If anyone has answers consistent to the following questions, and even having a socialist government, please (and do not say with any pitorreo), let us know. With consistent answers I mean not having to do with locals and, especially, Catalan.

"Why privatize a public entity providing satisfactory service to users efficiently and with lower rates of environment?

"Why is privatized, it is one of the few public bodies that have surplus (ie, yields dividends to the state) ?

"Why is privatization of the institutions really supportive and unifying the whole state, which manages both airports in less developed areas as some of the largest in Europe, fulfilling an important social work ?

"Why are privatized, when it creates problems in the market environment, or alter the activities of the ?

"WHY SO NOW we won AENA EARNED WHEN ALL ARE GOING TO GO TO JUST A FEW HANDS, AND UP We risk losing AIRPORT QUALITY ON THE NET, THAT may be impaired ?


Well, the truth is that this alienation not much. Like it or not is done . And it privatized deprivatize is rarely seen, but now we have the example of Aerolineas Argentinas. The chosen formula was as follows. Said first and fast, AENA will be AE and NA, ie the one hand is the airspace, which remains entirely public (thank goodness). are the English airports will suffer a partial and gradual privatization to reach 30% , at least at this time. If the figure is there, things do not look so bad, the problem is that once the door opens, the pressures of increasing private. Let's leave it there.

As for the participation of the Autonomous Communities in the management of airports, I must say that here or we go, we did not come. Communities Because only participate directly in the airport management when installing more than 30 million passengers a year , read Madrid-Barajas and Barcelona-El Prat and exceptionally Palma de Mallorca (23 million pax.) For have strategic importance, as Zapatero said the Balearics offer that opportunity last weekend.

Now, mentioning the title of the post: Do you think that privatization is an opportunity or a problem León Airport?

I personally I feel that there are a couple of faces on the coin. On the one hand, it is true that the 100 million euros investment in our AENA airport in the last 9 years would have caused problems in accountability, up from 30% of private capital that seeks to benefit the principal objective.

However, it can be an opportunity for, if indeed there is a compelling and interest on the part of employers Leon, is to build a center of air cargo in a position to benefit from the location and underutilization of the field Leon flight. Or a site where Lagunair conditions, if this is the case in the future. Because it is very sad, I think, to pass something like what happens to the railway line of the Via de la Plata, where entrepreneurs from different and even the multinational Renault are continually asking for its reopening, and nobody makes them any attention.

not to say this that no one could have developed the project with AENA entirely public, much less. Only I think now the vision of economic performance in network will move each particular facility. We will have to try to minimize their losses as possible, and even turn them into profit ... (Look at Girona airport ex-deficient, how they sought the life ...) And no, no I think airports are closed, really. At least not in the short term.

Greetings!
