Iqela leenkampani iYao lifumene iAsia Spirit, inqwelo moya yokuqala yelizwe kunye neyokusebenzisana kuphela egxile kwiindlela ezincinci ezihanjiweyo, ekunokwenzeka ukuba zidityaniswe neSoutheast Asia Airlines (SeaAir), inqwelo moya yenqwelo moya eqeshiweyo efunyanwa yinkampani.
Umthombo obambekayo kuthethathethwano uthe usihlalo wenkampani u-Alfredo Yao utyikitye isivumelwano sokuthenga i-Asia Spirit phakathi kwiveki ephelileyo. Umthombo, nangona kunjalo, awuvezanga isixa esichaphazelekayo kuthengiso.
Umthombo uphinde waqaphela ukuba iAsia Spirit inokudityaniswa neSeair.
Igosa eliphezulu lathi u-Yao uqaphele amandla okuhamba ngenqwelomoya ngenxa yeshishini elikhulayo kungekuphela kwiiPhilippines kodwa nakulo lonke elase-Asiya.
Inkampani enobundlongondlongo yasekhaya, edume ngeemveliso zayo zesiselo phantsi kweqela leZesto, ijonge uninzi lweepesenti ezingama-60 kwi-SeaAir.
I-Asia Spirit yasekwa yi-Airline Employees Cooperative (AEC), iqela lamalungu angama-36 asekwayo aneendlela ezahlukeneyo zokuhamba ngenqwelomoya, ngoSeptemba 1995 njengenqwelomoya yabakhweli basekhaya kunye nomsebenzi wokuqhuba iinkonzo ezicwangcisiweyo kwiindawo zabakhenkethi nakwizikhululo zeenqwelomoya ezikwinqanaba lesibini nakwinqanaba eliphezulu apho ezinye iinqwelomoya sukuba nabuganga bokusebenza.
I-Asia Spirit izama ukuphuhlisa ezinye iindawo ezinokubakho kwezokhenketho, ngokuhambelana neSicwangciso seSebe lezoKhenketho. I-AEC ibhaliswe kunye neGunya loPhuhliso lweNtsebenziswano phantsi kweOfisi kaMongameli weRiphabhlikhi yasePhilippines kunye nezinye iiarhente ezilawulayo.
Inkampani yenze isiphithiphithi xa ibhabha isiya kwiindlela eziziisekondari neziphezulu ezihlala zingakhathalelwanga kwaye ngaphandle kwenkonzo yenqwelomoya ethembekileyo.
Yabhabha yaya eSan Jose, Cauayan, Boracay, Masbate, Virac, Daet, Batanes nase Tablas ziphuhlisa ezi ndlela zaphinda zamisela unxibelelwano kunye ne-Mainila.
U-Antonio G. Buendia Jr. usebenze njengomongameli wenkampani kunye noJoaquino Ernesto L. Po njengesekela-mongameli.
Inkampani, nangona kunjalo, yahlupheka ngokwezimali njengoko iinqwelomoya ezinkulu zakha ukhuphiswano olomeleleyo kwiindlela ezaziphuhliswe kwaye zahlakulwa nguMoya waseAsia.
Umzekelo, yayiqhele ukubhabha iye eTagbilaran kodwa xa iCebu Pacific yalahla amaxabiso ayo eAsia Spirit kwanyanzeleka ukuba ayeke ukukhonza indlela yaseTagbilaran.
Umthombo wathi ngokufunyanwa kweAsia Spirit, iYao Group kulindeleke ukuba idibane neSeair, inqwelomoya yenqwelomoya ehamba ngeendlela ezifutshane kwiziqithi zeli lizwe zabakhenkethi, ukuqinisa ukusebenza kwayo.
Umthombo wongeze ukuba uYao ugqibile ngepesenti ezingama-60 eSeair ngasekupheleni konyaka ophelileyo.
Ngaphantsi kwesicwangciso, iQela leYao liceba ukwandisa ukwanda kweenqwelomoya kwi-SeaAir kwilizwe kunye nokubhabhela kwamanye amazwe akummandla.
I-SeaAir yayinezicwangciso zokukhuphisana kuhambo lohlahlo-lwabiwo mali olwandayo kunye nokwandiswa kwemisebenzi yayo eSingapore naseMacau emva kokuba yenze isivumelwano noTiger womoya ixesha elide lokuqeshisa ii-A320s zexesha elide.
Inkampani ilinde nje ukuvunywa yiBhodi yeAeronautics yeLizwe yokubhabha iindlela zamanye amazwe.
Ngaphambili, inkampani icwangcise ukubhabha yaya eMacau naseSingapore isebenzisa ii-A320s ezimbini ukusuka eDiosdado Macalapagal International Airport eClark.
Iinqwelo-moya ezimbini ziya kongezwa kwiinqwelomoya ezikhoyo zeSeair ze-7 LET-410, iinqwelomoya ezine zeDornier 328, indiza yolwandle yeDo24ATT.
Nje ukuba zonke izibonelelo eziyimfuneko zifunyenwe, inkampani inokuqhubeka nesicwangciso sayo sokucela iphakheji yenkuthazo phambi kweBhodi yoTyalo-mali.
Yinqwelomoya yokuqala eyi-135 yasePhilippines ehambelana nemigangatho ye-ISO 2001.
Okwangoku, iSeaAir isebenza eyayo indlu yokugcina isendaweni. Isibonelelo seemitha ezili-1,200 e-Clark Airfield, ePampanga.
Inenqwelomoya ezili-13 ezi-8 ezi-19 ezihleli abantu 410. Iinqwelomoya ezi-5 ezishiyekileyo ziyafumaneka ukuze ziqeshwe kwaye zine-2 iDornier-28 (abakhweli abali-9), i-1 Piper Cherokee (abakhweli aba-3), i-1 Alouette kunye ne-1 yeCitabria.
Ibaleka ukukhetha indawo kwilizwe kubandakanya iClark, Antique, Bacolod, Baguio, Baler, Bantayan, Basco, Caticlan kunye neKalibo, Busuanga, Butuan, Cagayan de Oro, Calbayog, Camiguin Catarman, Zamboanga, Jolo kunye Tawi-Tawi.
