  • Excluding the four days of Air France pilot strike, the capacity remained stable (-0.2%) compared to June 2015
  • 7.0 million passengers, -1.9%
  • Slight decrease in load factor of the long-haul network, while stable in the short and medium-haul network
  • Excluding one-offs, the unit revenue per available seat kilometer (RASK) ex-currency down mid-single digit compared to June 2015, reflecting the weak supply-demand balance in the different regions of the network and increasingly soft local flows to France
  • The impact of the pilot strike on the June operating result is estimated around € 40million
