Yesterday, 9, Azul announced its traffic data for the month of November. Although covid's impacts are still very large in the international market, the domestic flights market closed well above the levels registered in 2019, causing the month's result to surpass November 2019.

The seating capacity in ASK (seats available times flown kilometers) was 3.057 billion in the month of November this year (2.874 billion domestic and 183 million international). In November 2019, there were 2.979 billion, being 2.315 billion domestic and 664 million international.

Demand, measured in RPK (paying passengers times flown kilometers), was 2.493 billion, with 2.337 billion domestic and 155 million international. Before the pandemic, there were 2.456 billion, with 1.902 billion domestic and 533 million international.

The aircraft occupancy rate was 81.5%, compared to 82.2% before the pandemic. The recovery of aviation, especially the international one, is still covered with uncertainty with the arrival of the omicron variant.
