The FINANCIAL — KLM welcomed 3.6% more passengers in June this year, with capacity up 2.2% in available seat kilometres. Consequently, load factor for June rose to a record 90.5%.
Looking at the first six months of 2018, we see that our revenue passenger kilometres (RPKs) are up 5.4%, with capacity up 4.2% compared to the first half of last year. This resulted in a 1% increase in load factor during the first half of the year, in which KLM welcomed 16.6 million passengers, up from 15.6 million in the first half of 2017.
KLM Cargo kept its traffic virtually stable during the first half of the year, while reducing capacity by 1.9%, which led to a 1.2% increase in load factor to 66.3%.
Transavia saw its load factor rise by 2.9% in the first half of 2018, with traffic up 3.3% and capacity down slightly.
