Und hier noch eine schlechte Nachricht von/für Thai Airways:
June 3, 2005
Thai Airways said on Friday it filled 71.6 percent of its seats in April, down from April and the same period a year earlier.
The 54 percent state-owned carrier, which is hoping for a recovery in passenger traffic after the December 26 tsunami while facing high fuel prices, said in a statement it filled 71.9 percent of its seats in March and 72 percent in April 2004.
It filled 67.7 percent of passenger and cargo capacity in April, down from 68.7 percent in March and 66 percent in the same period last year, it said.
The airline carried 1.47 million passengers in April this year, down from 1.54 million in March and 1.64 million in April 2004, it said.
The airline said it carried 10.8 million passengers and filled 72.1 percent of its seats in the first 7 months of its current financial year, which runs from October 1 to September 30.
That compared with 11.8 million passengers and a 73.4 percent passenger load in the same period a year earlier, it said.
Major rival Singapore Airlines said it filled 65.8 percent of the space available on its planes for passengers and cargo in April, down from 66.3 percent a year earlier.
Hong Kong´s Cathay Pacific Airways said its April passenger traffic rose 10.7 percent from a year earlier to 1.21 million.
