What have we accomplished 3 p

  • Paniel Sneebjörinsson Jan 11

We have gone from zero to 10 aircraft, over 500 employees and 38 destinations

  • Number of aircraft at year end
  • 2) 2020 = number of employees at the end of 2020. 2021-22 = number of employees at the end of Q3 = number of employees as of August 2028
  • 3) Number of seasonal and year-round destinations operated to and on sale

Our capacity has grown significantly

RASK

Note: Numbers above based on results for the period June to August 2022. The numbers on sides are based on quarter'y numbers, eg, Q covers the period July to September

1) RASK = Revenue per available seat kilometer. Includes only air free sold online. Revenue from onboard sales at third-party products, sales of third-party products, sales airports and cargo excluded

What is the conclusion?

Significant capacity growth nearly always leads to a decline in unit revenue

  • › Capacity/seats get added in bulks, i.e., for us, 180-214 seats per aircraft, whereas passengers do not come in bulks
  • › Despite significant growth in capacity, PLAY has managed to increase unit revenue

Historical data shows that exiting high growth mode leads to unit revenue improvement

Markets that we launched last year posted above average unit revenue growth this summer

  • › In summer 2023, we are seeing above-average improvement in unit revenue for markets that were June-August 2023 vs 2022 launched back in 2022
  • 31% of our capacity in summer 2023, measured in available seat kilometers, was new
    • › Close to half of the new capacity went on sale in Q1 2023, e.g., Amsterdam, Glasgow, Venice, Aalborg, Billund, Dusseldorf and Toronto
    • Short lead time to sell driven by uncertainty around access to airports, i.e., slots

Despite increased competition on some routes in summer 2023, our margins improved

Note: Summer refers to the period June - August

  • 1) Based on OAG Schedules
    • 2) Based on internal route profitability information

Outlook

Pilot Recruiting

  • › 18 pilots, out of 125, leaving in the next few weeks/months
    • › We have already hired to fill most of those positions, and they have started training
    • › Capacity during winter 2023/24 is 20% lower than during the peak summer 2023
    • › Upgrade process for next season has already started
    • We have advertised and already received hundreds of qualified applications

    • › Pilot turnover is therefore not an issue that will impact operations but it is always sad to see good people leave
  • › We made changes to our collective bargaining agreement (CBA) to bring our terms up to market standards
    • › PLAY is now very competitive in the European pilot market
    • This is on top of a compelling offer for pilots that includes a desirable work-life balance, schedule flexibility and rapid promotion opportunities

    • Changes to CBA estimated to increase CASK Ex-Fuel by 1% on annual basis in 2024

    • › Current CBA up for renegotiation in 2025

Fleet plan

Total Number of Aircraft1)

  • › Currently exploring the option of introducing seasonal wet lease capacity for summer 2024
  • PLAY has signed Letters of Intent for two additional Airbus A320NEOs for 2025
  • › Looking to expand the fleet to 14 aircraft in 2025 if aircraft can be secured at the right terms

Cash neutral operation

Neutral cash flow in 2023 excluding investments in fleet expansion
