Wizz Air Holdings Plc (WIZZ.L) on Monday said that it carried 6.35 million passengers in the month of July, up 7 percent from the 5.95 million passengers flown in the same period last year. Seat capacity climbed 8 percent during the month to 6.84 million seats from 6.33 million seats a year ago.
The Hungarian low-cost airlines said that July's load factor declined 1.0 percent to 92.8 percent from 93.8 percent year-on-year, impacted by the Middle East geopolitical crisis and the delayed replacement of cancelled Tel Aviv services.
During the month of July, the company's CO2 emissions per revenue passenger kilometre or RPK declined 1.8 percent to 50.9 grams from last year's 51.8 grams. Total CO2 emissions rose 2.2 percent to 534,072 metric tonnes from 522,661 metric tonnes in the year-ago period.
Wizz Air Holdings said that flight services to Tel Aviv will resume on August 8, initially covering 10 routes across 8 countries, with full restoration of 24 routes to 11 countries to be done by mid-September. Expansion in Central and Eastern Europe is ongoing, including a new base at Warsaw Modlin Airport launching in December this year, and additional A321neo aircraft at Kraków, Katowice, and Skopje, it added.
The company said that a total of 40 new routes have been announced, with more than 30 originating from the region.
For the rolling 12-month period, Wizz Air said that it carried 65.4 million passengers, a growth of 5.5 percent with capacity up 4.2 percent to 71.8 million seats. Load factor during the rolling 12-month period rose 1.1 percentage points to 91.1 percent.
