SAS Carried Almost 400,000 Passengers in
December 2020
|
Almost 400,000 passengers flew with SAS in December,
an increase of 18% when compared to October, but a decline of 80%
year-on-year.
At the same time SAS reduced its capacity by 6%
compared to November, which corresponds to a reduction of 74%
when compared to last year.
The load factor was 33%, an increase
of some 8 percentage units compared to the previous month,
but down 38 percentage units when compared to November 2020.
The increase in passengers and load factor
compared to November was mainly driven by an
increased demand for domestic travel during the holiday season.
“The overall demand continues to be heavily
impacted by continued restrictions, with holiday travel
significantly below normal levels in December,” said Rickard Gustafson, CEO SAS.
“SAS continues to
adapt its capacity according to the demand, that is expected to
stay at low levels throughout the winter season. However, we’re
encouraged by the recent vaccine developments and initiated
COVID-19 vaccination programs, providing a foundation for a future
normalization of our industry.”
