Abakhweli abangaphezu kwezigidi ezihlanu baseBritane banokufumana amaxabiso aphuma kwintengiso yohlahlo-lwabiwo mali njengoko iinqwelomoya zonyusa ixabiso labo, zizisa ixesha lokuhamba ngexabiso eliphantsi.
Abenzi beholide abalungiselela iholide yesiqhelo yasehlotyeni kule veki banokufumanisa ukuba xa beza kubhukisha ikhefu labo elilandelayo amaxabiso ohambo awafikeleleki.
Amaxabiso amatikiti kulindeleke ukuba anyuke nge-10 leepesenti kulo nyaka kwaye ngokulandelayo njengoko ixabiso leoli linyusa amatyala ezithuthi zenqwelomoya.
Ukunyuka okumangalisayo kwexabiso leoli, eliphindeke kabini kulo nyaka uphelileyo, phantse ngokuqinisekileyo kuya kukhokelela kutshintsho olumandla kushishino lweenqwelo moya xa kuphela eli xesha lasehlotyeni. Abathwali baya kunyusa amaxabiso, banciphise inani leenqwelomoya abazinikezelayo kwaye amagama athile awaziwayo aya kuphuma kwishishini.
Ukunyuka kwamaxabiso kuya kuba kothusa ngokukhethekileyo abantu abahamba ngeeholide abaqhelana neenqwelomoya ezingabizi kakhulu kubathwali bexabiso eliphantsi okanye iinqwelomoya zebhajethi, ezifana neRyanair kunye ne-easyJet.
Ingqikelelo yokuthwala uhlahlo lwabiwo-mali, eyangeniswa evela e-United States malunga neminyaka eyi-15 eyadlulayo, iguqule indlela abantu abahamba ngayo eYurophu. Iinqwelomoya, ezixabisa i-1 nje yeedola, zenze ikhefu langempelaveki ukuya kwizixeko ezinjengeBarcelona okanye iDublin phantse zithengwe ngokungxamisekileyo.
Abathwali bemveli belizwe, okanye ilifa, baye babuna phantsi kokhuphiswano oluqatha oluvela kwiinkampani zeenqwelo moya, eziye zasebenzisa ukuthotywa kweendleko ezingapheliyo ukuvelisa amaxabiso aphantsi. Abakhweli baye bakuvuyela ukuncama ubunewunewu obuncinci obufana nokutya, iziselo zasimahla kunye nezihlalo abazabelweyo ngembuyekezo yexabiso eliphantsi.
Uqingqo-mali lweenqwelo-moya kunye nokusetyenziswa kakhulu kwe-intanethi ukubhukisha iihotele kuye kwakhuthaza iintsapho ezininzi ukuba zicwangcisele iiholide zazo kunokuba zithenge ipakethe kubakhenkethi.
Ukuthandwa kwabathwali bebhajethi kuye kwavumela ukuba bakhule ngokukhawuleza, kwiminyaka embalwa kuphela iRyanair ibe yinqwelomoya enkulu kunazo zonke eYurophu, ithwele abagibeli abaphindwe kabini njengeBritish Airways. Ukunyuka ngokukhawuleza kwexabiso leoli, nangona kunjalo, kuthetha ukuba iinqwelomoya ezininzi zilahlekelwa yimali.
UDouglas McNeill, umhlalutyi wezothutho eBlue Oar, umzi-mveliso othengisa amasheya kwisiXeko, uthe: “Ixabiso lokukhwela liyenyuka ngokucacileyo kwaye liza kuqhubeka lisenjenjalo kwikamva elibonakalayo.”
Ngokutsho kwabahlalutyi ukunyuka kwe-10 ekhulwini kwiintlawulo ngokuqhelekileyo kukhokelela ekuweni kwe-6.5 ekhulwini kumanani abakhweli. Iinqwelo-moya eziqikelelwayo zithwala abakhweli baseBritani abaqikelelwa kwizigidi ezingama-45 ngonyaka. Ukuba imali yokukhwela inyuka ngeepesenti ezingama-20 kwisithuba seminyaka emibini, imfuno yabakhweli ibonakala iza kuwa ngaphezulu kwezigidi ezihlanu.
UMartin Ferguson, umnxibelelanisi wohambo lweshishini kwi-Travel Trade Gazette, ushicilelo oluyingcali, uthe: “Kukho intetho okwethutyana kwizangqa zeshishini malunga nokuphela kwe-£1 yenqwelomoya. Yinyani ngokungathandabuzekiyo. Yonke into ixhomekeke kwixabiso leoli.”
Abathwali bebhajethi baya kuzuza ukonyuswa kwemali yokukhwela ngokubiza imali eyongezelelweyo ngokujonga imithwalo kunye nokukhwela kuqala.
UDoug McVitie, umhlalutyi weenqwelomoya eArran Aerospace, umcebisi, uthe: “Abakhweli kuya kufuneka baziqhelanise nokuhlawula imali encinci. Iinqwelomoya zohlahlo lwabiwo-mali ziya kuzisa iindleko ezingakumbi zokuhlawula iindleko zazo kwaye mhlawumbi yinto nje yexesha ngaphambi kokuba iqhula elithile licebise ukuhlawulisa ngokusebenzisa indlu yangasese. Amava onke ohlahlo lwabiwo-mali olubhabhayo aya kuba mnandi ngakumbi. ”
IBritish Airways, iLufthansa kunye ne-Air France zonyusa amaxabiso azo ngeentlawulo zepetroli, ezihlawulwa ngaphezulu kwexabiso lokukhwela eliqhelekileyo. Intlawulo eyongezelelweyo ye-BA inyuke kathathu kulo nyaka kwaye ngoku yi-£218 ebuyayo kwezona nqwelomoya zinde.
Esinye isicwangciso-qhinga esivuleleke kushishino lweenqwelo moya iya kuba kukunciphisa inani leenqwelomoya ezizisebenzayo kunye nokurhoxisa iindlela ezingenangeniso. IRyanair ibhengeze kwiiveki ezimbini ezidlulileyo ukuba iza kumisa iinqwelomoya ezisibhozo eStansted kunye nezinye ezine eDublin kobu busika. I-EasyJet ithe kwiveki ephelileyo izakuphungula umthamo wayo ngeepesenti ezili-10 xa iyonke kunye neepesenti ezili-12 kwiStansted.
Ukuncitshiswa komthamo kunokuba ziindaba ezimbi kubanini bezindlu zesibini eFransi naseSpain abathenge iipropati zabo becinga ukuba bazokwazi ukuhamba besebenzisa ibhajethi yenqwelomoya yenqwelomoya.
Abathwali belifa elikhulu baya kunciphisa umthamo, ngakumbi kwiindlela ezimfutshane zaseYurophu. Inqanaba eliphakathi leenqwelomoya, ezincinci, abathwali belizwe njenge-Alitalia, baya kucinezelwa kakhulu ngokunyuka kwamaxabiso eoyile. Abahlalutyi balindele ukuba batyhalelwe ekubeni bangabinamali okanye bathengwe ngabakhuphisana nabo.
Umnumzana McVitie uthe: "Abona bathwali belifa baya kuphila ngenxa yeendlela zabo ezinde kwaye uhlahlo lwabiwo-mali olukhulu luya kuphila kuba basaza kufikeleleka ngakumbi kunabanye abaqhubi beemoto ezimfutshane. Wonke umntu ophakathi usengxakini yokwenene. Eli shishini liza kujongeka lahluke kakhulu kwiminyaka embalwa. ”
