Gulf Air achieves best load factor in 5 years

Gulf Air said it has achieved its best February results in 5 years with the highest seat load factor for February since 2014, a month after launching the boutique airline strategy. The February 2019 results show Gulf Air’s strategic expansion with 75.7% seat load factor and a record number of 478,959 passengers.

The preliminary results for the month of March, based on first twenty days, also show record numbers that beat all March results since 2012 in both seat load factors and number of passengers, Gulf Air statement said. “With greater capacity and number of seats, it was challenging to hit the best seat load factors however we managed to achieve this goal.

Our passengers are proving to become more loyal and we see returning customers since the launch of our new fleet products the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner and the Airbus 320neo,” the CEO of Gulf Air Kresimir Kucko said.
