India’s Jet Airways has recorded a fourth
consecutive month of growth for January 2010. The airline improved
on its impressive performance in December 2009, reporting a 30%
surge in international passenger traffic for January 2010
vis-à-vis the same period last year.
Domestic passenger traffic in
January 2010 also registered a 26% increase, as compared to the
same period last year, while the airlines’ average seat factor for its
international operations for January 2010 stood at an impressive
84.9%.
JetLite, Jet Airways' all-economy subsidiary, posted a 12.8%
growth in passenger traffic on a seat factor of 75% in January
2010.
The robust growth figures have been registered
despite disruption in flight schedules over North India due to
inclement weather and the fog in Delhi during the month of January
2010.
Mr. Nikos Kardassis, Chief Executive Officer,
Jet Airways (I) Ltd said, “Several new
strategic, marketing and network initiatives implemented during
the economic downturn are also now beginning to pay dividend,
enabling the airline to tap into demand revival at the shortest
possible notice. Increased business and leisure travel during the
winter months has resulted in higher yields and higher network
wide passenger load factors. Our focus to deliver an enhanced
customer service experience, will further help Jet Airways build
on its hallmark of convenience and comfort for its domestic and
international passengers.”
