Air Serbia posts record 2017 Q1 results - Cargo transport increases by 70%, number of passengers equals 453,859
The Belgrade-based airline carried 453,859 passengers in the first three months of 2017, representing a year-on-year increase of 8 per cent compared to Q1 2016, when Air Serbia carried 419,824 passengers.
The growth in passenger traffic was mirrored by a dramatic rise in cargo tonnage, with 1,490 tonnes transported in the quarter, up by 70 per cent over the 877 tonnes flown in 2016.
Available Seat Kilometres, a measure of Air Serbia’s passenger-carrying capacity, stood at 834 million at the end of Q1 2017, an increase of 20% over the same period last year. In spite of the significant increase in capacity, the seat load factor grew to 67 percent, up from 63.6 percent in Q1 2016.
– The introduction of these new services, as well as other exciting developments we have planned for 2017, will ensure the upward trend of Q1 continues into the year – said Dane Kondic, Chief Executive of Air Serbia.
