IndiGo monthly passenger traffic: Jan-2006 to Jul-2012
Jul-2012 load factors data shows that in addition to transporting the largest number of passengers in the month, IndiGo, as usual, reported the strongest load factor at 75.5%, although this was down significantly from 86.5% in Jun-2012, reflecting seasonal trends as the peak summer season ends and the domestic market enters its lean season. No airline reported month-on-month load factor gains in Jul-2012, while IndiGo and Air India were the only two airlines which reported marginal increases in load factors in Jun-2012. The sharpest decline, as expected, was seen at Kingfisher, reporting load factors of only 53% despite operating a quarter of the number of aircraft it did a year earlier.
