Both the total traffic growth (RPK) and the capacity growth (ASK) increased by 17 percent this month.
“The August traffic figures show that the positive development continues with more passengers and high load factor in all markets. We’re particularly satisfied with the development on our intercontinental operation, appealing to an increasing number of passengers on both sides of the Atlantic,” said CEO Bjørn Kjos of Norwegian.
Norwegian operated 99.6 percent of the scheduled flights in August, whereof 77.6 percent departed on time.
Norwegian’s fleet renewal program continues with full force in 2016 with the delivery of 21 brand new aircraft. The company took delivery of one Boeing 737-800 in August. With an average age of only 3.6 years, Norwegian’s fleet is one of the world’s “greenest” and most modern.
