• 7.5 million passengers, -0.6%
• Slight decrease in load factor of the long-haul network, while stable in the short and medium-haul network
• Excluding the estimated impact of the Air France cabin crew strike, the unit revenue per available seat kilometer (RASK) ex-currency down mid-single digit compared to July 2015, reflecting the weak supply-demand balance in the different regions of the network and soft local flows to France
• The impact of the seven day Air France cabin crew strike (period July 27th – August 2nd) on the operating result is estimated around € 90million

• On the Americas network, traffic rose 2.4% for capacity up by 1.6% leading to a 0.7 point rise in load factor to the record level of 91.3%
• The Asia network recorded a 4.6% rise in traffic and capacity, the load factor gaining 0.1 points to 89.4%.
• On the Africa and Middle East network, traffic increased by 1.3% for capacity up by 3.1%. The load factor declined by 1.5 points to 83.6%.
• The Caribbean and Indian Ocean network saw a 2.5% fall in traffic in line with the 2.3% reduction in capacity. The load factor was virtually unchanged (-0.2 points) at 85.2%.
• Traffic on the European network was stable (+0.1%) for capacity down 1.8%, leading to a 1.6 point improvement in load factor to 82.0%.

Cargo
Cargo recorded a 5.8% drop in traffic for capacity down 2.9%, the load factor declining by 1.8 points to 59.7%. Unit revenue per available tonne kilometre (RATK) ex-currency decreased compared with July 2012.

The group realised a satisfactory third quarter across all its businesses with the exception of cargo. In passenger, the limited capacity increase in the industry led to an improvement in unit revenues, which, for the group, were also helped by a positive foreign exchange effect due to the depreciation of the euro versus other currencies. On the other hand, the cargo business continued to deteriorate over the quarter. As previously indicated, measures undertaken in the context of the plan Transform 2015 are starting to have a significant impact on costs.

Recent developments

• On 7th July 2011, the Annual General Meeting approved the change in the financial year end, now fixed at 31st December.
• On 11th July 2011, Air France presented its new offer from Marseille in the context of its ‘provincial bases project’. As of 2nd October 2011, Air France will offer 13 new direct flights. This strategy will be extended in spring 2012 to Toulouse, Nice and Bordeaux.

As in the previous two months, unit revenue per available seat kilometer (RASK) ex-currency saw a strong year-on-year rise, with a marked recovery in both Premium and Economy classes. In long-haul, the rise was especially strong on the Asia and Americas networks. In medium-haul, the capacity adjustments undertaken in the context of the product overhaul led to a high load factor of 79.1%, the highest ever achieved since the merger of Air France and KLM. On the Paris-Europe routes, unit revenues were driven by the strong performance of the new ‘Premium eco’ class, aimed at the business traveler.
