Volaris Reports October 2023 Traffic Results:
2% YoY Demand Growth with an 89% Load Factor
Mexico City, Mexico, November 6, 2023 – Controladora Vuela Compañía de Aviación, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: VLRS and BMV: VOLAR) (“Volaris” or “the Company”), the ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC) serving Mexico, the United States, Central, and South America, reports its October 2023 preliminary traffic results.
In October 2023, Volaris’ capacity (measured in ASMs) increased by 2.4% year-over-year, while demand (measured in RPMs) increased by 2.2%; the result was a load factor decrease of 0.2 pp YoY to 89.5%. Volaris transported 2.7 million passengers during the month, a 2.4% decrease compared to October 2022. Demand (measured in RPMs) in the Mexican domestic market decreased by 5.2%, while demand increased by 20.1% in the international market.
Enrique Beltranena, Volaris’ President and CEO said: "In October, we entered the second month of reduced P&W engine availability. Our response involved intentionally scaling down domestic ASMs while capitalizing on Category 1 opportunities to redeploy capacity to the US market. The result of our approach matched last year's total ASMs, and at the same time, we have seen a positive demand response.
During our recent earnings call, we reaffirmed our commitment to delivering a reliable schedule aligned with our passengers' needs while simultaneously implementing accelerated engine inspections that will reduce our available aircraft.
Demand remains strong in both domestic and international markets, driving the domestic load factor to a new October record high. We are currently adjusting our Central America operations, adding more capacity to the US to meet increased holiday season demand."
