Norse Atlantic Airways is to increase the number of aircraft leased out on charter operations as demand falls following the summer peak.
The budget transatlantic carrier saw September carryings rise by 111% year-on-year to 132,556.
The average load factor was up by 22 percentage points to 78% as it ran 503 flights.
The airline also operated five ACMI [Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance] charters last month.
Founder and chief executive Bjorn Tore Larsen said: “We have seen continued strong demand at the beginning of the month, as expected this has begun to soften towards the end of September in certain markets as we transition to our winter schedule.
“We have already successfully completed five ACMI/charters in September and this will continue to grow throughout the winter contributing a positive revenue stream for the company as we optimise the use of our fleet in the most efficient way during this period.
“At the beginning of the month we announced our new Paris to Los Angeles route that will operate from May 2024.
“We have also extended the availability of our flights across our summer network through to October 2024, allowing customers to plan their travel for the year ahead and avail of the best prices available.”
