percent compared to May last year, while the load factor was down 2 percentage

as the summer programme is approaching cruising speed. For Norwegian, May also
brought a solid 12 percent increase in passengers compared to last year.
"I'm satisfied with the passenger numbers in May. About 650,000 of our
passengers travelled to southern Europe destinations in May. The average flying
distance increased 7 percent, demonstrating our significant capacity growth to
beach destinations. Our capacity has been significantly increased overall for
the summer season, and we look forward to welcoming even more passengers through
the busy summer holidays," said Geir Karlsen, CEO of Norwegian.
The capacity (ASK) was 3,466 million seat kilometres, up 19 percent from the
same period last year. Actual passenger traffic (RPK) was 2,843 seat kilometres,
an increase of 16 percent from May 2023. Unit revenue including flight related

of flights departing within 15 minutes of scheduled time, was 86.1 percent, up
1.2 percentage points from May last year.
Widerøe delivering good numbers
Widerøe's results in May show an increase almost across the board. While the
airline keeps similar capacity as previous months, and identical to May last
year, they have flown over 10 percent more passengers this year.
"I am very pleased to see Widerøe continuing to deliver good results. The load
factor increased an impressive 7 percent, with the majority of the improvement
coming on the commercial network. I want to thank the Widerøe team for the great
work they are doing", said Geir Karlsen, CEO of Norwegian.
For Widerøe the capacity (ASK) in May remained unchanged at 179 million seat
kilometres. The actual passenger traffic (RPK) was 124 million seat kilometres,
