The two airlines carried a combined total of 3.4 million passengers, 6.3 per cent higher than last year.
Cargo loads rose by 4.2 per cent year-on-year, higher than the 2.9 per cent expansion in cargo capacity. As a result, cargo operations posted a load factor of 57.2 per cent, 0.7 percentage point higher year-on-year. During the month, cargo demand was supported by front-loading activity, in anticipation of growing uncertainty in the global trade environment.
