March pax
The individual route analysis is also out but only looked at long-haul
in depth but some of the European routes were very average. I assume
due to business closing for Easter - the leisure routes were fine.
Dubai 36412 - 294 per flight 83%
Newark 8789 - 143 per flight 81%
Ashkhabad 5803 - 161 per flight or 85% approx
Islamabad 9570 - 266 per flight or 81% (first time the 777 has hit 80%)
Not included Air India as it is difficult to judge how many BHX seats
are available with the transfers but 2736 from ATQ is lowish.
Still a bit to go I would assume before EK upgrade the evening flight
but it is still heading in the right direction. Good to see CO recover from
that awful February (still down on 2007) and PK finally break 9000.
