NOVEMBER 2013 TRAFFIC

  • Passenger: rise in traffic (+0.9%) and decline in load factor (-0.8 point)
  • Cargo: slight increase in traffic (+0.4%) and load factor (+0.5 point)

Passenger

In November 2013, passenger traffic rose by 0.9% for a 2.0% increase in capacity. As a result, the load factor declined by 0.8 points to 80.3%. As expected, unlike last year, traffic benefited much less from the French All Saints Day school holidays1 , the postponement in travel due to Hurricane Sandy, and the timing of Thanksgiving. The Group carried 6.0 million passengers (-0.2%). Unit revenue per available seat kilometer (RASK) ex-currency was down relative to November 2012.

  • On the Americas network, traffic rose by 2.2% for capacity up by 5.3%. At 83.4%, the load factor was 2.5 points lower than the high level reached last year (86.0%). Capacity growth remains driven by the development of the Latin American network (+7.7%), the growth to/from North America being less strong (+3.8%).
  • The Asia network posted a 1.5% decline in traffic for stable capacity (-0.1%), the load factor falling by 1.1 points to 81.7%.
  • On the Africa and Middle East network, traffic was up by 2.0% for a 5.5% increase in capacity, the load factor standing at 75.6%, down by 2.5 points.
  • The Caribbean and Indian Ocean network remained dynamic: traffic was up by 3.7% for capacity up by 2.4%, the load factor increasing by 1.2 points to 87.4%.
  • On the European network, traffic declined by 0.6% while capacity was down by 2.8%. The load factor rose by 1.6 points to 73.9%.

Cargo

Cargo posted a modest 0.4% increase in traffic for virtually stable capacity (-0.3%), leading to a 0.5 point rise in load factor to 68.7%. Unit revenue per available ton kilometer (RATK) ex-currency decreased compared with November 2012.
