September CAA Provisional Stats

The CX Load Factor that Ringwayman mentions was similar to those of some of the other long haul routes:

ATL +8% / LF 85.6%

ORD +7% / LF 82.1%

MIA n/a / LF 87%

JFK +184% LF 92% (AA, DL, TCX flights only and assumes nil pax for PIA)

EWR -1% / LF 93.2%

PHL -16% / LF 75.4%

IAD -11% / LF 83.7% (based on reduction to 5 x wkly from end of first week. if it was 6 wkly or happened later, then LF is lower)

Also worth noting, LAS was up 42% and MCO 12%

Non-US routes LF or Average Loads A/L

EK +5% / LF 86.3% (assumes b777 flights were all 3 class)

EY +4% / AL 327

QR +45% / AL 209

SQ +13% / AL 188

SV +65% / AL 226

TK +45% / AL 150 (based on 3 flights daily - is the 3rd flight daily?)

Overall, good or pretty reasonable with 1 exception I would say. The usual proviso of all flights operating and my calculations being right!

Egyptair was down 10% but not sure how frequency compared.

Have not worked out Canada but Toronto was up a lot, Calgary down slightly and Vancouver flat.
