The Umbutho wamazwe ngamazwe oThutho loMoya (IATA) ikhuphe uphando lwezimvo zoluntu lubonisa ukuba nentumekelelo yokuhamba ishukunyiswa ziinkxalabo malunga nemingcipheko yokubamba i-COVID-19 ngexesha lohambo lomoya. Izicwangciso zokuqalisa kwakhona zeshishini zijongana nezona zinto ziphambili kubakhweli.
Iinkxalabo zokuHamba ngexesha le-COVID-19
Abahambi bathabatha amanyathelo okhuseleko ukuzikhusela kwi-COVID-19 nge-77% besithi bahlamba izandla rhoqo, i-71% ithintela iintlanganiso ezinkulu kwaye i-67% inxibe imbonakalo esidlangalaleni. Abanye abangama-58% kwabo baphononongiweyo bathe bayakuthintela ukuhamba ngenqwelomoya, nge-33% becebisa ukuba baya kuthintela ukuhamba kwikamva njengenyathelo eliqhubekayo lokunciphisa umngcipheko wokubamba i-COVID-19.
Abahambi bachonge ezona nkxalabo zabo zintathu zilandelayo:

Xa bekucelwa ukuba babeke amanqanaba amathathu aphezulu anokubenza bazive bekhuselekile, i-37% ikhankanye ukuhlolwa kwe-COVID-19 kwizikhululo zeenqwelo moya, i-34% yavuma ngokunyanzelwa kokunxiba iifemask kunye ne-33% yabonisa amanyathelo okwahlula-hlula kwenqwelomoya.
Abakhweli ngokwabo babonakalise ukuzimisela ukudlala indima ekugcineni ukubhabha kukhuselekile ngoku:
- Ukujongwa kobushushu (43%)
- Ukunxiba imaski ngexesha lokuhamba (42%)
- Ukungena kwi-Intanethi ukunciphisa unxibelelwano kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya (40%)
- Ukuthatha uvavanyo lwe-COVID-19 ngaphambi kohambo (39%)
- Ukucoceka indawo yokuhlala (i-38%).
“Abantu bayakhathazeka ngokucacileyo nge-COVID-19 xa beseluhambeni. Kodwa baqinisekisiwe ngamanyathelo asebenzayo aziswa ngoorhulumente kunye nomzi mveliso phantsi kwesikhokelo sokususa esenziwe yi-International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO). Oku kubandakanya ukunxiba imaski, ukwaziswa kwetekhnoloji yokunxibelelana kwiinkqubo zokuhamba kunye neendlela zokuhlola. Oku kusixelela ukuba sisendleleni elungileyo yokubuyisa ukuzithemba kukhenketho. Kodwa kuya kuthatha ixesha. Ukuba nesiphumo esiphezulu, kubalulekile ukuba oorhulumente basebenzise la manyathelo kwihlabathi liphela, utshilo u-Alexandre de Juniac, uMlawuli Jikelele we-IATA kunye ne-CEO.
Olu phando luye lwakhomba kwimiba ephambili ekubuyiseleni ukuzithemba apho ishishini liya kufuna ukunxibelelana nenyani ngokukuko. Eyona nto iphambili yabakhenkethi kwiibhodi ezibandakanya:
Umgangatho womoya wekhabhathi: Abahambi abakenzi zigqibo malunga nomgangatho womoya wekhabhathi. Ngelixa iipesenti ezingama-57 zabahambi bakholelwa ukuba umgangatho womoya uyingozi, ama-55% nawo aphendule ukuba ayaqonda ukuba acocekile njengomoya kwisibhedlele esisebenzayo. Umgangatho womoya kwiinqwelomoya zangoku, ewe, ungcono kakhulu kunenye yezinye iindawo ezivalelweyo. Kutshintshaniswa umoya omtsha rhoqo emva kwemizuzu emi-2-3, ngelixa umoya kwizakhiwo ezininzi zeofisi utshintshiswa amaxesha ama-2-3 ngeyure. Ngaphaya koko, isiCoci esiPhezulu seParticulate Air (HEPA) sibamba ngaphezulu kwe-99.999% yeentsholongwane, kubandakanya neCoronavirus.
Ukuncitshiswa kwentlalo: Oorhulumente bacebisa ukuba banxibe imaski (okanye yokugquma ubuso) xa ukudana ekuhlaleni kungenakwenzeka, njengoko kunjalo ngothutho lukawonkewonke. Oku kungqinelana nengcali ye-ICAO yokukhokela. Ukongeza, ngelixa abakhweli behleli kufutshane ebhodini, ukuhamba komoya wekhabhathi kusuka kwisilingi ukuya kumgangatho. Oku kuthintela ukusasazeka okunokubakho kweentsholongwane okanye iintsholongwane ngasemva okanye ngaphambili kwikhabhathi. Kukho ezinye izithintelo zendalo ekuhanjisweni kwentsholongwane kwibhodi, kubandakanya ukujolisa phambili kwabagibeli (ukunciphisa umda ukujongana ubuso ngobuso), ukubuyela umva okuthintela usulelo ukusuka kumqolo ukuya kumqolo, kunye nokuhamba okuncinanana kwabakhweli ndlwana.
Akukho mfuneko yamanyathelo okushenxisa eluntwini kwibhodi yenqwelomoya evela kumagunya ahlonitshwayo okuhamba ngenqwelomoya afana ne-US Federal Aviation Administration, i-European Union Aviation Safety Agency okanye i-ICAO.
“Akuyomfihlo ukuba abakhweli banexhala malunga nengozi yokosulela kwibhodi. Kuya kufuneka baqinisekiswe zizinto ezininzi ezakhelwe-ngaphakathi zokulwa intsholongwane yenkqubo yokuhamba komoya kunye namalungiselelo okuhlala ajonge phambili. Ngaphezulu koku, ukuvavanywa ngaphambi kwenqwelomoya kunye nokugqunywa kobuso kuphakathi kwezinye iindawo zokhuselo ezenziwa ngumzi-mveliso noorhulumente ngengcebiso ye-ICAO kunye noMbutho wezeMpilo weHlabathi. Akukho bume bungenabungozi, kodwa zimbalwa iimeko ezilawulwa njengekhabhathi yenqwelomoya. Kwaye kufuneka siqinisekise ukuba abahambi bayayiqonda loo nto, utshilo u-de Juniac.
Akukho Sisombululo sikhawulezayo
Ngelixa phantse isiqingatha sabo baphononongiweyo (iipesenti ezingama-45) bachazayo ukuba bazakubuyela ekuhambeni kwisithuba seenyanga ezimbalwa bufikile ubhubhane, oku kwehla kakhulu ukusuka kuma-61% abhalwe kuphando luka-Epreli. Ngokubanzi, iziphumo zovavanyo zibonisa ukuba abantu abalahlekanga incasa yabo yokuhamba, kodwa kukho iibhlokhi zokubuyela kumanqanaba okuhamba ngaphambi kwexesha lobunzima:
- Uninzi lwabahambi abaphononongwayo baceba ukubuyela kuhambo ukuya kubona usapho kunye nabahlobo (57%), ukuya ekhefini (56%) okanye benze ishishini (55%) ngokukhawuleza emva kokuba ubhubhane udambile.
- Kodwa, ngama-66% athe bazokuhamba kancinane ukuzonwabisa kunye nezorhwebo kwihlabathi lasemva kobhubhane.
- Kwaye iipesenti ezingama-64 zibonise ukuba bazakukuhlehlisa ukuhamba de imeko zoqoqosho ziphuculwe (ezobuqu nezabanzi).
“Le ngxaki inokuba nesithunzi eside kakhulu. Abakhweli basixelela ukuba kuya kuthatha ixesha ngaphambi kokuba babuyele kwiindlela zabo zakudala zokuhamba. Iinqwelomoya ezininzi azicwangcisi ibango lokubuyela kumanqanaba e-2019 kude kube ngo-2023 okanye ngo-2024. Njengoko ezinye iindawo zehlabathi ziqala indlela ende yokubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo, kubalulekile ukuba oorhulumente bahlale bethembekile. Ukuqhubeka kwamanyathelo okunceda njengokunciphisa ukusetyenziswa kwayo, ukunciphisa irhafu okanye ukunciphisa iindleko kuza kubaluleka kwixesha elizayo, utshilo u-de Juniac.
Esinye sezona blocker zikhulu ekubuyiseni imboni kukuhlukaniswa kwabantu. Abanye babahambi abangama-85% baxele inkxalabo yokuvalelwa bodwa ngelixa beseluhambeni, inqanaba elifanayo lenkxalabo kwabo baxela inkxalabo ngokubanzi yokufumana intsholongwane xa besihamba (84%). Kwaye, phakathi kwamanyathelo abahambi ababezimisele ukuwathabatha xa beziqhelanisa nokuhamba ngexesha okanye emva kwalo bhubhane, yi-17% kuphela eyabika ukuba bazimisele ukuvalelwa bodwa.
“Ukuvalelwa yedwa ngumbulali wemfuno. Ukugcina imida ivaliwe kwandisa intlungu ngokubangela ubunzima bezoqoqosho ngaphandle kweenqwelo-moya. Ukuba oorhulumente bafuna ukuqalisa kwakhona amacandelo abo okhenketho, amanye amanyathelo asekelwe kumngcipheko ayafuneka. Uninzi lwakhelwe kwizikhokelo ze-ICAO zokuThatha, njengokujonga impilo ngaphambi kokuhamba ukutyhafisa abantu abaneempawu zokuhamba. Iinkampani zeenqwelo moya zinceda lo mzamo ngemigaqo-nkqubo yokubhukisha kwakhona ebhetyebhetye. Kule mihla yokugqibela siye sabona i-UK kunye ne-EU zibhengeza izibalo ezisekelwe kwingozi yokuvula imida yazo. Kwaye amanye amazwe akhethe iindlela zokuvavanya. Apho kukho umyolelo wokuvula, kukho iindlela zokukwenza ngokuthembekileyo,” utshilo u-de Juniac.
