Lyon was very good considering the 5-6 month gap from when BACON
ceased. However it was averaging 39 in March but off course the SKI
season was still in swing (there was snow in Europe - just
).
Some other selective routes: -
Krakow 2186 - average pax 137 load factor 92%
Lisbon 4617 - average pax 136 load factor 91%
Barcelona 7661 - average pax 128 load factor 86%
Marseille 3226 - average pax 95 load factor 65%
Warsaw 4022 - average pax 118 load factor 79%
Galway 893 - average pax 34 load factor 44%
Waterford 1881 - average pax 38 load factor 57%
Toulouse 1545 - average pax 35 load factor 72%
Cologne 3750 - average pax 89 load factor 60
Dubai 32557 - average pax 271 load factor 77%
Newark 9745 - average pax 162 load factor 93%
Delhi 3272 - average pax 74 but transits I believe were good
Ashkhabad - 4991 average pax 147 about 77%
Islamabad 7107 - average pax 197 load factor 60%
Dundee 1605 average 18 or 39% based on 90 rotations
Pity that no other airline can make a 92% load factor work
(Krakow) as it has two months since its demise was known -
what a disappointment.
The PK ISB was up but still a low load factor (Ramadan affected it?)
Galway and Cologne are going and no surprises there unless Galway
reappears in summer.
Still a bit surprised that Toulouse is going even if they have wiped
about 2500 pax off per month. I have not posted Hamburg but it is
still struggling, Stuttgart perked up a little and so did laod factors on Dusseldorf. However I agree with Daza and I think other airlines would
do better.
Newark continues to frustrate, can't make money with two a day
or ten a week but they must be turning people away with constant
load factors of 90%. Again I trust it is the lack of business pax.
Dubai was up about 7000 and the evening EK38/37 is nearing capacity
on a regular basis with its connections to Aus, are you watching Qatar?
