Investor Info April 2012 Investor Relations Traffic for April in line with previous month’s strong performance The Passenger Airline Group continued its yield focused capacity management in April, adding just 1.5 per cent to capacity while the number of flights remained stable (-0.2%). Sales increased by 4.0 per cent, so that the passenger load factor improved by 1.8 percentage points to 78.5 per cent. The pricing environment also developed positively.
Traffic figures of Passenger Airline Group (Month yoy %)
All airlines reported higher sales and load factors. Lufthansa Passenger Airlines (including Germanwings) improved its passenger load factor by 1.3 percentage points while capacity remained virtually stable (+0.5%). At SWISS and Austrian Airlines too, the sales increase significantly outpaced capacity growth, so that both airlines registered improved load factors. The positive trend was reflected in all traffic regions. In European traffic sales were up by 5.7 per cent and the load factor rose by 0.8 percentage points. In the Americas traffic region capacities were further reduced; the load factor improved by 2.7 percentage points as sales went up at the same time. Sales in the Asia/Pacific traffic region picked up by 5.7 per cent. With capacity holding virtually stable, the load factor here rose particularly steeply (+3.9 pts.). In the Middle East/Africa traffic region the passenger load factor was stable compared with last year (+0.1 pts.) at slightly greater capacity.
Traffic figures by region (Month yoy %)
Tight capacity management was again the watchword in the freight business. Lufthansa Cargo reduced its capacity in April by 9.8 per cent. Although sales declined by 11.1 per cent, the cargo load factor was nearly the same as last year’s (-1.0 pts.).
