Αποτέλεσμα εικόνας για Aeroflot passenger traffic up 10.2% in 8M 2016

Aeroflot PJSC (Moscow Exchange ticker: AFLT) today announces traffic statistics for Aeroflot Group (“the Group”) and Aeroflot – Russian Airlines (“the Company”) for August and the first eight months of 2016.
8M 2016 Operating Highlights
In the first eight months of 2016, Aeroflot Group carried 28.7 million passengers, up 8.9% year-on-year. Aeroflot airline carried 19.0 million passengers, a year-on-year increase of 10.2%. Group and Company revenue passenger kilometres (RPKs) increased by 12.2% and 10.6% year-on-year, respectively. Available seat kilometres (ASKs) rose by 8.2% year-on-year for Aeroflot Group and by 8.4% for Aeroflot airline. The passenger load factor increased by 2.9 percentage points (p.p.) year-on-year to 81.9% for the Group and by 1.7 p.p. year-on-year to 81.6% for the Company.
August 2016 Operating Highlights
In August 2016, Aeroflot Group carried 4.5 million passengers, up 6.4% year-on-year. Aeroflot airline carried 2.8 million passengers, a year-on-year increase of 6.1%.
Group and Company RPKs increased by 12.2% and 6.7% year-on-year, respectively. ASKs rose by 9.3% year-on-year for Aeroflot Group and by 5.9% for Aeroflot airline.
On domestic routes, Group passengers carried and RPKs grew by 1.2% and 4.8% year-on-year, respectively. ASKs decreased by 0.1% year-on-year. Company passengers carried on domestic routes were up 3.2%, while RPKs declined by 0.9% and ASKs declined by 4.3%. The decrease in Company’s ASKs was due to postponement of aircraft deliveries required for summer schedule operations and respective adjustments in the flight program.
On international routes, Group passengers carried rose 14.4% year-on-year while Group RPKs were up 19.3% year-on-year. ASKs for the period increased 18.2% year-on-year. Passengers carried on Aeroflot airline international flights increased 8.8%, RPKs increased by 11.7% and ASKs rose 12.5%. International traffic growth was supported by a decline in competition as several foreign carriers reduced flight frequencies to Russia, Aeroflot airline’s international transit traffic through its Sheremetyevo hub and Transaero’s exit from the market, which triggered a reallocation of domestic and international routes amongst market players.
As a result of these factors, the passenger load factor increased by 2.3 p.p. year-on-year to 89.7% for the Group and by 0.6 p.p. year-on-year to 88.5% for the Company.
