Moving back to the mundane, July pax figures:
Passengers: 919,000 +10.5%
Load Factor: 81.6% -2.3%
Short Haul Load Factor: 82.2% +1.2%
Long Haul Load Factor: 80.8% -6.7%
First Six Months:
Passengers: 5.3 million +6.7%
Load Factor: 76.4% -1.8%
The fall in long haul load factor was probably inevitable considering the new aircraft coming on stream.
As an aside, is there any chance that the Shannon and Cork specific discussions can be kept to the threads for those airports?
