(firmenpresse) - (DGAP-Media / 07.08.2013 / 07:59)
In July, airberlin welcomed more than 3.4 million passengers on board and
was able to keep capacity utilization in yearly comparison at a very high
level of 86.62 percent.
In the course of its flight plan optimization, airberlin has reduced the
available seat kilometers (ASK) by 3.8 percent to 6.005 billion (previous
year: 6.242 billion). Therefore, the revenue passenger kilometers (RPK)
likewise decreased, i.e. by 4.7 percent to 5.202 billion (previous year:
5.459 billion), accentuated by a slightly lower number of last-minute
travelers related to the elevated temperatures recorded in July.
In the first seven months of 2013, airberlin was able to increase fleet
capacity utilization to 84.88 percent, i.e. by 2.7 percentage points in
yearly comparison, and welcomed a total of more than 18 million passengers
on board. The available seat kilometers totaled 32.630 billion and the
revenue passenger kilometers amounted to 27.697 billion.
For 2013, airberlin has changed the way it calculates its capacity
utilization. The capacity utilization calculation is now determined
according to the sector standard, and the revenue passenger kilometers
(RPK) are compared to the available seat kilometers (ASK). For the purpose
of a yearly comparison, the capacity utilization for 2012 was likewise
calculated anew.
