Due to the numerous national holidays in May this year, some of which fell in June last year, the scheduled segment tended to be driven by tourist rather than business traffic in May 2008. Around 983,400 passengers were carried in May overall (scheduled and charter segments), a 4.1% increase on last year, with the total load factor also rising in May to 75.0%, 2.5 ppts more than in May 2007.
With an approximate total of 4.2 million passengers carried in the period from January to May, an increase was reported of 3.2%. At 73.8%, the load factor stood at approximately the same level as last year overall (-0.2 percentage points). |
