March 07 2025 - 8:30AM
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
February 2025 preliminary
traffic results.
In February, Volaris’ ASM capacity increased by
3.4% year-over-year, while RPMs for the month grew by 2.5%. Mexican
domestic RPMs increased 3.6%, while international RPMs rose 0.7%.
As a result, the load factor decreased by 0.7 percentage points
year-over-year to 85.2%. During the month, Volaris transported 2.2
million passengers.
Enrique Beltranena, Volaris’ President and CEO,
said: “February loads remained robust across both domestic
and cross-border markets, in line with historical trends for a
typical low-season month. We will maintain a proactive approach to
capacity management and fare modulation to preserve strong load
factors and cope with the impact of local currency depreciation and
softer cross-border demand. We will closely monitor forward booking
patterns and will continuously adjust capacity to match
demand.”
