February down 5.4% & January route analysis

Source: CAA Provisional Figures

February 2018 Passenger figures 764901 compared to 2017 of 809239.

However the bright spot was Emirates although down the average pax per flight was 531 - not many routes in the world that can beat that mainly because there isn't that many 615 seat aircraft.

Air India average 222 or 87% which basically means the messing around of the service by adding two direct Amritsar flights and reducing Delhi to five a week direct hasn't altered the figures hardly at all although March will be the first complete month.

January 2018 Analysis. Load factors estimated based on seat maps and the pax per flight from flight radar 24 and as you can see some routes have missing data. There are a few horrors but generally very good and considering the demise of Monarch, the reduction by Flybe and the loss of the New York flights and third Emirates it is not a bad showing.

NB. As data is taken from a FR24 (paid subscription) it can have some "data holes" through no fault of their own but this can lead to some errors in the average pax and thus load factor but usually the percentage error is low
