But will these ambitious moves be enough to win over skeptical financial markets? Recent improvements, like the popular "Upfront Plus" seating and growing loyalty revenue, hint at progress. However, with a modest 0-2% pre-tax margin forecast for Q4 2024, markets may remain cautious. 🔐Read the full analysis here: https://bit.ly/3UJ6iGy

Porto Alegre Salgado Filho Airport (POA) resumed commercial operations on 21-Oct-2024, following its closure due to damage caused by flooding since May-2024. The airport is located in the capital of Brazil's Rio Grande do Sul State, home to approximately six percent of the country's population. As the state's major hub, POA being out of action for the best part of five months inevitably had a significant impact on Brazilian carriers' traffic. 🔐Read more: https://bit.ly/3CmewOv

Asia Pacific airlines face hurdles in their international recovery, with capacity still trailing other regions at 94% of 2019 levels, while North America and Europe have surged past pre-pandemic levels. Growth in the region has leveled off, rising just 4% in 2024, hindered by supply chain issues, slow demand recovery in key markets like China and Japan, and broader macroeconomic challenges. Thailand exemplifies the struggle, with visitor numbers still 13% below 2019 levels and key markets like China only 55% recovered. How will Asia Pacific airlines navigate these headwinds as they work toward a full recovery? Read the full analysis here: https://bit.ly/40CUNE7

We at Viva are very proud to announce that we have been recognized by CAPA - Centre for Aviation as Latin America's Leading Airline in Environmental Sustainability 2024. ✈ CAPA is one of the most trusted market intelligence sources worldwide for the aviation industry. The Environmental Sustainability Awards analyze airline practices globally to identify and honor those most committed to the environment. Here are some of the sustainability initiatives we have implemented at Viva: 🟢 We have the youngest fleet in Mexico and the 5th youngest in North America, consisting of 88 A320 and A321 ceo/neo aircraft, with maximum seat density (186 / 240 seats per aircraft) 🟢 We fly mostly non-stop routes with high load factors. Additionally, our Pratt & Whitney NEO aircraft allows us to burn 16% less fuel, resulting in greater operational efficiency. 🟢 We launched Mexico's first onboard waste separation and recycling program. 🟢 We developed a program that enables passengers to offset their carbon footprint when flying, calculating the carbon emissions per passenger. 🟢 At Los Angeles International Airport, we use Neste's MY SAF sustainable fuel blend, which allows us to claim 35% of the fuel used. Neste's MY SAF fuel is made entirely from renewable waste and residual raw materials, reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by up to 80%. ✅ This award motivates us to continue setting an example in the industry by implementing more eco-friendly practices. We are very grateful and will remain committed to driving innovation for the benefit of our passengers 👨👩👧👧 and planet 🌎 !

In late Sep-2024, SkyTeam and Eurostar signed a MoU to offer integrated air-rail journeys across Western Europe by 1H2025, marking SkyTeam's first partnership with a non-airline entity. The agreement will enable customers to book combined flight and rail itineraries in a single reservation. This was followed in Oct-2024 by the announcement of SkyTeam's MoU with Trenitalia to expand intermodal travel in Italy. As European countries increasingly promote rail over short haul air services, similar initiatives have been implemented in France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands. These air-rail alliances signal a growing trend towards sustainable travel and integrated transport solutions. 🔐Read more: https://bit.ly/3UCyI4L
