April – May 2017 Passenger Traffic
2 million passengers and overall international traffic increased by 15%, while traffic to Athens increased by 19%!
AEGEAN’s international passenger traffic increased by 15% during April and May 2017, if compared to the same period in 2016. Significant momentum was achieved with the commencement of the summer season and the transportation of 1.2 million passengers. The Athens base—with the contribution and maturity of destinations launched in 2015 and 2016, but also with new destinations – launched in 2017—recorded the largest increase, with international passengers increasing by 19%.
Overall passenger traffic in the domestic and international network amounted to 2.1 million passengers, recording an 8% increase if compared to 2016. Even in the domestic network, the company maintained its total number of passengers stable, despite the reduction in Public Service Obligation Routes operated by Olympic Air, and the entry of new competitor airlines to the market.

First Quarter 2017 Trading Update
Higher passenger traffic with improved load factors
Kifissia, 23 May 2017
AEGEAN announces a trading update for the First Quarter of 2017 showing consolidated revenue at €151.9m, 3% higher compared to €147.9m in the first quarter of 2016. Passenger traffic rose by 5% compared to 2016, reaching 2.1m passengers, with significantly improved load factors. The company operated 7% less flights compared to the respective period in 2016.
Net losses after tax stood at €35.8m from €21.5m in the respective quarter of 2016. Fleet underutilization in the winter months along with the move of Easter into the second quarter of the year, weighed on results of the seasonally weakest quarter of the year.
Traffic in the international network increased by 17%. On the other hand, domestic traffic was 6% lower, as the Company adjusted the activity to soft demand with lower fares, reduced flights and hence achieving improved load factors.
Cash & financial investments reached €262m at period end 31.03.2017 [1].

A Historic Record of 13.2 million passengers
6% increase in traffic
International passenger traffic increased significantly by 15%
AEGEAN and Olympic Air passenger traffic increased by 6% in 2017. For the first time in the airlines’ history, the number of passengers surpassed the 13 million mark. More specifically, a historic record of 13.2 million passengers were carried; 750 thousand more than the previous year. It is worth mentioning that the increase in traffic is entirely due to the improved utilization of the network, since the number of flights operated in 2017 was not higher than in 2016.
Passengers traveled in the international network, which continues to be the main growth driver, amounted to 7.3 million passengers, recording an annual increase of 9%. On the other hand, despite the increased number of competitors, domestic traffic also increased, reaching 5.9 million passengers compared to 5.7 million in 2016, with frequent and appealing fare offers leading to higher load factors.
The strengthening of the Athens network has been the main focus of investment for yet another year. More specifically, international passenger traffic increased by 15%, while total traffic from AIA increased by 9%, with AEGEAN surpassing 10 million passengers for the first time, thus contributing to the traffic and tourist movement of the airport and the city of Athens.
In 2017, AEGEAN achieved historically high load factors, as a result of its successful commercial policy and efficient network management. Specifically, the load factor rate for the entire domestic and international network increased to 83%, compared to 77% in the previous year.

Great figures and strong growth.
Perhaps on the back of that they could let golds select seats free of charge in economy? Is there another airline that charges in these circumstances? Even BA allow it!

Obviously not enough to bankrupt the airline
. The new policies and other charges have actually had a postive impact in contributing to the financial results. Let us not forget that if it was not so easy to maintain *G on A3 this board would go quiet very quickly! The real business and revenue customer is what A3 care about.

Analyzing a bit the A3 schedule you will see that there are many domestic routes that are beating the international routes in term of Available Seats - no matter winter or summer. In Q2+Q3, the domestic AS is even higher than in the rest of the quarters.
Some roughly calculations bellow.
S2019, ATH JTR ATH
6 * 320 / 170 seats = 1020
4 * DH4 / 78 seats = 312
1 * 321 / 196 seats = 196
1528 * 2 = 3056 seats per day
---
S2019, ATH SKG ATH
9 * 320 / 170 seats = 1530
1 * 321 / 196 seats = 196
Total 1726 * 2 = 3452 seats per day
---
S2019, ATH HER ATH
7 * 320 / 170 seats = 1190
1 * 321 / 196 seats = 196
Total 1386 * 2 = 2772 seats per day
---
S2019, ATH JMK ATH
5 * 320 / 170 seats = 850
3 * DH4 / 78 seats = 234
Total 1386 * 2 = 2772 seats per day
---
S2019, ATH RHO ATH
6 * 320 / 170 seats = 1020
Total 1020 * 2 = 2040 seats per day
Total for this 5 routes per day = 14.452 seats available
In Q3 there will be 92 days. So, 1.329.584 seats with only 5 routes.
In Q3 2018 there were 5.732.000 total seats. So the routes above represents 23.20% from the total of Q3.
I made the calculations using the max number of seats per plane and not deducting the eventual business class seats on certain flights.
