SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN FINNAIR'S ASIAN TRAFFIC — UNIT REVENUES ON THE RISE
FINNAIR PLC STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 7 July 2010 AT 09:00 SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN FINNAIR'S ASIAN TRAFFIC — UNIT REVENUES ON THE RISE In June, Finnair's Asian traffic grew by 26 percent compared with the previous summer's figures. The growth of all scheduled traffic was 12 percent. ”The demand for Asian traffic is growing noticeably. We are increasing our capacity to destinations in Asia. Next summer, we will open a new non-stop route to Singapore”, says Finnair's President & CEO Mika Vehviläinen. Including leisure flights, the growth in Finnair's total revenue passenger kilometres was eight percent compared to June last year. Leisure traffic decreased by nine percent compared with last June. In June, the passenger load factor covering all Finnair flights was 77 percent, which is approximately three percentage points better than last year. The unit revenue of Finnair's scheduled flights per passenger kilometre increased by six percent in the second quarter compared with the previous year, whereas during the first half of the year the unit revenue decreased by one percent. One significant factor is that the demand for business class has increased by almost 40 percent. On Asian flights, the number of passengers in business class increased by over 50 percent. “In addition to the growth in the overall demand, particularly corporate travel has increased no matter the travel class. The demand comes, above all, from European and Asian markets outside Finland. The change in passenger structure during the year has improved the unit revenue significantly. The price level is however clearly below 2008”. The total number of passengers on Finnair flights during the beginning of the year was 3.5 million. Out of this number, 450,000 passengers travelled on leisure flights. The number of passengers on scheduled flights was on last year's level. The amount of cargo and post carried in June was 54 percent higher compared with June last year. This significant increase is mainly due to the cargo flights from Helsinki to Hong Kong and Seoul that began in May. Also the amount of cargo carried on scheduled flights increased by over 30 percent. In June, 87.3 percent of all Finnair flights were on schedule, which is 1.7 percent less than in June last year. The percent of punctual scheduled flights was 88.7 percent. This is a decrease of 1.8 percent compared with the situation in June last year.
