AirFrance KLM December 2010 Traffic
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
* Passenger: rise in traffic (+2.0%) and load factor (+0.9 points)
* Cargo: rise in traffic (+2.1%) but decline in load factor (-1.7 points)
* Activity strongly affected by adverse weather conditions
The passenger and cargo activities were each affected by the periods of heavy
snowfall in December in both Europe and the United States. Unit revenues rose
slightly in passenger and more strongly in cargo. The impact on revenues of
these weather is estimated at 70 million euros.
Passenger business
Traffic rose by 2.0% in December with capacity up by 0.9% leading to a 0.9 point
rise in the load factor to 80.6%. The number of passengers amounted to 5.4
millions, down 1.6% due to flight cancellations, especially in medium-haul.
* On the Americas network, traffic was stable with capacity up 1.7%. The load
factor lost 1.5 points to 85.0%.
* The Asia network remained dynamic with traffic up 5.6% for capacity up by
6.7%. The load factor shed 0.9 points to 82.3%.
* The Africa and Middle East network saw a slight decline in traffic (-0.5%)
while capacity increased by 1.1%. As a result, the load factor declined by
1.2 points to 78.7%.
* The Caribbean and Indian Ocean network enjoyed a robust level of activity
with traffic up by 8.4% for virtually stable capacity (+0.3%). The load
factor gained strongly, rising by 6.3 points to the high level of 84.1%.
* The European network was the most affected by the weather. Traffic declined
by 1.1% while capacity was down by 6.1%. As a result, the load factor gained
3.6 points to 70.9%.
Cargo business
The cargo business was affected by the difficulties encountered by ground
transport. Traffic was up 2.1% for a 4.6% rise in capacity, leading to a 1.7
point decline in load factor to 68.4%.
Recent developments

Orly. This building, with a surface of 10,000 m² will double the capacity to
