Aeroflot Group Passenger Traffic Up 13.7% in 10M 2015


Aeroflot PJSC  announces operating results for Aeroflot Group  and Aeroflot – Russian Airlines  for October and ten months of The operating results of Aeroflot Group and Aeroflot – Russian Airlines for October and ten months of 2015 were significantly influenced by the Group’s participation in a major program to carry passengers of Transaero airline. During the month of October, until all Transaero flights ceased on October 26, Transaero passengers flew aboard Transaero flights operated by Aeroflot Group as well as aboard Aeroflot Group’s own scheduled flights.

A special operational centre was established to handle the situation, and it reassigned Transaero passengers with the goal of minimising financial expenses associated with carrying passengers. The traffic figures presented in this document account only for Transaero passengers carried aboard Aeroflot Group flights. This totalled 88,700 passengers, or 259.2 million revenue passenger kilometres. Aeroflot -Russian Airlines carried the largest number of Transaero passengers, 61,100 passengers or 178.3 million revenue passenger kilometres. When including passengers that flew aboard Transaero flights under Aeroflot Group operational management in September and October 2015, the total number of passengers carried was 1.9 million.

Servicing Transaero passengers required insignificant changes in Aeroflot Group’s flight timetable, including additional flights on a number of routes and allocation of larger aircraft. These tactical changes, though they had an effect on available seat kilometres, were a part of the operational programme. OrenAir supplied additional capacities for Transaero passengers who were clients of the travel agency Biblio Globus, beyond the scope of the operational programme.
