 Finnish national carrier Finnair's total passenger traffic increased in August, boosted by strong growth in demand for flights to Asia and Europe, it said on Friday. Finnair's total revenue passenger kilometres (RPKs) rose 19.8 percent to 1.77 billion in August, after a 16.5 percent climb in July, the company said in a statement.
Traffic was up 35 percent on Asian routes and nearly 30 percent on European flights, Finnair said in a statement, but added that demand for North America flights dropped 5 percent.
The carrier's overall passenger load factor remained unchanged year-on-year at 77.1 percent.
Finnair carried about 709,800 passengers in August.
