The Norwegian Air group reported a “solid” October with total carryings of more than 2.5 million.
Norwegian Air flew almost 2.2 million passengers as it operated an average of 85 aircraft, while regional arm Wideroe achieved a record 372,757.
The result came on the back of a 10% year-on-year rise in capacity at the Scandinavian low cost carrier with a load factor close to 87%.
Group chief executive Geir Karlsen said: “This October has been solid, and I am pleased that we have delivered increased unit revenue and load factor, while at the same time delivering double-digit capacity growth.
“With the winter season and Christmas holidays approaching, we are excited to see a strong booking momentum for both Norwegian and Widerøe.
“We have just opened our new base in Gran Canaria, which, in addition to the new and exciting leisure routes, will support our operations in the upcoming winter season.”
He added: “Wideroe continues to go from strength to strength, and I’m impressed to see the good work our colleagues are doing to make sure the product offering appeals to a record number of growing passengers.”
