Glossary:
- "RPKs" Revenue Passenger Kilometers represent one revenue-passenger transported one kilometre. This includes itinerary and charter flights. The total RPKs equals the number of revenue-passengers transported multiplied by the total distance flown.
- "ASKs" Available Seat Kilometers represent the number of available seats multiplied by the distance flown. This metric is an indicator of the airline's capacity. It equals one seat offered for one kilometre, whether or not the seat is used.
- "Load Factor" equals the number of passengers transported as a percentage of the number of seats offered. It is a measure of the airline's capacity utilization. This metric takes into account the total passengers transported and total seats available in itinerary flights only.
- "Passengers" refers to the total number of passengers transported by the airline.
