Amstelveen/ Paris - The pick up in both the passenger and cargo businesses continued in July, both in terms of traffic and unit revenues. This improvement reflects both an upturn in demand as well as prudent capacity management.
Passenger business
Traffic rose by 1.2% in July with stable capacity, leading to a 1.1 points increase in load factor to 86.2%. Passenger numbers amounted to 6.9 million.
As in the previous two months, unit revenue per available seat kilometer (RASK) ex-currency saw a strong year-on-year rise, with a marked recovery in both Premium and Economy classes. In long-haul, the rise was especially strong on the Asia and Americas networks. In medium-haul, the capacity adjustments undertaken in the context of the product overhaul led to a high load factor of 79.1%, the highest ever achieved since the merger of Air France and KLM. On the Paris-Europe routes, unit revenues were driven by the strong performance of the new ‘Premium eco’ class, aimed at the business traveler.
- On the Americas network, traffic declined by 1.4% with capacity down 1.5%. The load factor gained 0.1 point to 90.1%.
- Traffic on the Asia network was dynamic (+5.1%) for capacity up 2.4%. The load factor stood at 90.1%, a rise of 2.3 points.
- On the Africa and Middle East network, traffic was up 3.4% with capacity up by 3.1%. The load factor was slightly up (+0.3 points) at 85.3%.
