SINGAPORE, 8 June 2023: The International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced continued strong passenger traffic demand in April against the backdrop of easing inflation and resurging consumer confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Total traffic in April 2023 (measured in revenue passenger kilometres or RPKs) rose 45.8% compared to April 2022. Globally, traffic is now at 90.5% of pre-Covid levels. At 81.3%, the industry load factor was only 1.8 percentage points below the pre-pandemic level.<\/p>\n\n\n

Domestic traffic for April rose 42.6% compared to the year-ago period and has now fully recovered, posting a 2.9% increase over the April 2019 results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International traffic climbed 48.0% versus April 2022, with all markets recording healthy growth, with carriers in the Asia-Pacific region continuing to lead the recovery. International RPKs reached 83.6% of April 2019 levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cApril continued the strong traffic trend in the 2023 first quarter. The easing of inflation and rising consumer confidence in most OECD countries, combined with declining jet fuel prices, suggests sustained strong air travel demand and moderating cost pressures,\u201d said IATA director general Willie Walsh.<\/p>\n\n\n
