國泰集團公布七月份客、貨運量數據

2014年08月14日

國泰航空今天公布與港龍航空2014年7月份合併結算的客、貨運量。數據顯示， 7月的載客量和貨物及郵件的運載量均較去年同期上升。

兩航空公司在7月份合共載客二百七十九萬二千一百七十一人次，較去年同期上升4.2%，運載率上升0.6個百分點至85.6%。以可用座位千米數計算的運力則上升5.9%。今年首七個月的載客量上升6.1%，而運力亦增加5.4%。

兩航空公司在7月份運載的貨物及郵件合共十四萬六千七百四十五公噸，較去年同期上升19.4%，而運載率為64.7%，上升4.4個百分點。以可用貨物及郵件噸千米數計算的運力增加12.7%，而貨物及郵件收入噸千米數的升幅為20.9%。今年首七個月的載貨量上升10.1%，運力增加11.1%，而貨物及郵件收入噸千米數亦上升13.4%。

國泰航空收益管理總經理黃瑋彤表示：「7月是暑期旅遊旺季的開始，整個網絡均錄得高運載率。離港和抵港的長途航線需求尤其強勁，我們最新推出的每日第四班洛杉磯航班表現亦令人鼓舞。東南亞航線的需求略見反彈，而韓國仍是香港旅客的休閒旅遊熱點。上月份的頭等及商務客艙表現勝於預期，加上特選經濟艙業務穩健增長，有助紓緩收益率備受的壓力。」

國泰航空貨運營業及市務總經理薩孟凱表示：「繼表現強勁的第二季後，貨運需求在七月維持強勁增長，相比去年同期的載貨量亦有較預期為高的增長。貨運業務受惠於香港市場的需求，以及中國內地主要製造中心有明顯增長的貨品出口。7月份進出美洲市場的貨運需求理想，我們得以按航班計劃運作所有定期貨運航班至美洲所有航點。歐洲方面的貨運航班則較原定計劃少，不過我們現時已多利用波音777-300ER客機腹艙運載貨物。」

Cathay Pacific releases combined traffic figures for July 2014

14 Aug 2014

Cathay Pacific Airways today released combined Cathay Pacific and Dragonair traffic figures for July 2014 that show an increase in the number of passengers carried and cargo and mail tonnage compared to the same month last year.

Cathay Pacific and Dragonair carried a total of 2,792,171 passengers in July – an increase of 4.2% compared to the same month in 2013. The passenger load factor rose by 0.6 percentage points to 85.6% while capacity, measured in available seat kilometres (ASKs), increased by 5.9%. For the year to the end of July, the passenger volume rose by 6.1% while capacity was up 5.4%.

The two airlines carried 146,745 tonnes of cargo and mail in July, an increase of 19.4% compared to the same month last year. The cargo and mail load factor rose by 4.4 percentage points to 64.7%. Capacity, measured in available cargo/mail tonne kilometres, rose by 12.7% while cargo and mail revenue tonne kilometres (RTKs) flown were up by 20.9%. For the year to the end of July, tonnage rose by 10.1% while capacity was up by 11.1% and RTKs increased by 13.4%.

Cathay Pacific General Manager Revenue Management Patricia Hwang said: “July marked the beginning of the summer peak period and we saw high passenger loads across the network. Demand on long-haul routes was particularly strong, both into and out of Hong Kong, and our new fourth daily flight to Los Angeles got off to an encouraging start. There was some rebound in traffic to Southeast Asia while Korea remained the hot-spot for leisure traffic from the Hong Kong market. A better-than-expected performance in the premium cabins and the growing contribution from our Premium Economy class helped to ease the pressure on yield last month.”

Cathay Pacific General Manager Cargo Sales & Marketing Mark Sutch said: “After a strong end to the second quarter, demand remained robust in July and the year-on-year tonnage increase was above expectations. Our performance was underpinned by a strong Hong Kong market and a significant surge in shipments out of the main manufacturing centres in Mainland China. We operated a full freighter schedule to all points in the Americas in July with good demand in both directions. We operated fewer freighters to Europe than originally planned though we are now making better use of the belly space in our Boeing 777-300ER passenger aircraft.”
