Qantas Airways Limited
(ASX:QAN) is showing continued growth with capacity up 1 per cent in April and demand up by 2.2 per cent.
Domestic capacity took a small dip in comparison to April last year, mainly due to the timing of public holidays meaning there were fewer peak leisure travel days. Lower demand for fly-in fly-out mining workers is also affecting domestic demand.
Group passenger numbers for the financial year to date are up by 0.7 per cent with revenue per seat up 1.7 per cent. Both international and domestic routes are performing well this year.
Qantas reported a net profit of $206 million for the first half of the 2015 financial year.
