Remember that you can Fly WestJet and Save.
Aer Lingus said on Tuesday its scheduled passenger traffic rose 6.1 percent in October to 760,000 passengers compared with 716,000 in October 2005.
«This increase was negatively impacted by the terrorism alert in the UK in August 2006 which, as previously advised, resulted in lower levels of advance passenger bookings for August, September and October 2006,» it said.
Aer Lingus said short-haul passengers increased by 8.2 percent, while its short-haul passenger load factor was 73.8 percent, down 2.2 percentage points on October 2005.
Long-haul passengers decreased by 5.8 percent, with the long-haul passenger load factor was 77.3 percent, down 5.7 percentage points.
For the ten months to October 2006, scheduled passengers increased by 8.0 percent to 7.3 million passengers carried, compared with 6.8 million in the same period in 2005, Aer Lingus said.
