SAO PAULO, Oct. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- GOL Linhas
Aereas Inteligentes S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA: GOLL4 and NYSE: GOL),
(S&P: B, Fitch: B-, Moody's: B3), the largest low-cost
and best-fare airline in Latin
America announces its preliminary air traffic figures for
September 2014. Comparisons refer to
September 2013, 3Q13 and 9M13.
- The 3Q14 and 9M14 domestic load factor totaled
78.3% and 77.0%,
respectively.
- The load factor growth, more than offset the
slight reduction in yield over 3Q13, led to year-over-year
PRASK growth of 9.1% in the quarter. Fares in the
quarter accompanied Brazil's
challenging economic activity scenario.
- Domestic supply had 4.2% cut in 3Q14 and
2.9% 9M14, in line with the Company's 2014 guidance of an
annual reduction between -3% and -1%.
- Domestic demand increased by 6.8% in
the quarter and 8.3% in 9M14. GOL captured¹
55% of the industry's demand growth in
2014.
- The number of passengers on board reached 29
million in 9M14, 10.4% up on the same period in 2013. In
September, GOL transported 3.2 million passengers, a
5.8% year-over-year increase.
- International market demand climbed by 30.3%
in 3Q14, fueled by the 8.3 p.p. growth in the load
factor. GOL maintained its focus on gradually increasing its
presence in other countries to achieve a higher revenue level in
foreign currencies.
