Read MoreHide Full Article
Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes S.A. reported air traffic figures for November. Traffic, measured in revenue passenger kilometers (RPK), climbed 3.8% to 3.4 billion. While international RPK declined 13.2%, domestic RPK grew 6.3% in the month.
On a year-over-year basis, consolidated capacity (or available seat kilometers/ASKs) was up 6.4% to 4.21 billion, primarily on 8.9% expansion in domestic capacity. Moreover, the carrier witnessed an 8.3% increase in passenger count during November.
Load factor, percentage of seats filled by passengers, deteriorated to 80.7% from 82.7% a year ago as traffic growth was outpaced by capacity expansion. While domestic load factor declined due to the effects of an unscheduled aircraft maintenance, International load factor decreased due to low demand in Argentina and Chile.
