2011-07-07 08:00:00 CEST 2011-07-07 08:00:10 CEST REGULATED INFORMATION Finnair Oyj - Company AnnouncementJune 2011 Traffic PerformanceFINNAIR PLC STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 7 July 2011 AT 09:00 In June 2011, Finnair traffic measured in Revenue Passenger Kilometres rose by 13.3% compared with June 2010. Capacity measured in Available Seat Kilometres grew by 15.8%, over 30% in Asian traffic mainly as a result of Singapore route launch. “Long-haul business travel demand continued to develop positively and business class travel grew in June, particularly in Asian traffic. Business class demand in total grew by a fifth during the second quarter. Business travel to Japan is recovering but remains to be below last year's levels. However, the travel directed from Japan to Europe has remained solid. Despite substantial capacity growth, the overall load factor dropped only slightly,” says Finnair CFO Erno Hildén. The unit revenue per passenger kilometre remained flat during the second quarter. In scheduled traffic the unit revenue change was -1.1 %. The situations in Japan and Middle East in addition to the overcapacity in the domestic market were reflected in unit revenue development compared to previous year. From the beginning of the summer season some of the previous leisure flights have been operated as scheduled services. The capacity change in Finnair's leisure traffic results from these changes in addition to flight cancellations to Egypt and Tunis. The arrival punctuality of Finnair flights in June was 82.6% (87.3%) of all flights arrived on schedule. The arrival punctuality of scheduled flights was 83.5% (88.7%).Punctuality figures were affected by, among other things, air traffic control restrictions in Finland and border control congestion in Helsinki.
