Feb International Route analysis
Sources: -
Passenger figures: CAA
Average pax per flight: movements from a BHX Blog, libhomeradar and own notes
Load Factor: estimated from airline website configs and planespotters.net etc
Schedule International routes have been separated and as you can see some high load-factors for February. A couple have been removed as the mix between schedule and IT in the provisional figures are wrong such as SSH and CMF - I believe.
All you can say is what a difference a month makes as these seem good as stand-alone figures but compared to January 2013 they are amazing and not bad against Feb 2012 - Green shoots or shoot?
Fares in general were high on the sun routes but FR cities were lower.
One domestic of interest was Belfast at 116 pax or 74% load factor - fares were originally cheap but not too different to other UK routes.
