US airlines’ cautious capacity approach proves beneficial

22-Jul-11 10:41 AM

Cautious capacity growth plans for 2011 highlight concerns among US carriers in adding back seats at a rate that could create the excess capacity situations of previous post-recession recoveries. Instead, airlines are focussing on the protection of yields and profits as escalating fuel costs threaten the global aviation industry’s profits.

The company doubled operating revenues from USD339.3 million to USD637.3 million, clearly boosted by its acquisitions of both Midwest and Frontier airlines last year.
