WestJet today announced July traffic statistics with a load factor of 79.7 per cent, capacity measured in available seat miles of 1.558 billion and revenue passenger miles of 1.242 billion.
\"Given our substantial growth in capacity, we are pleased with our strong load factor,\" commented Sean Durfy, WestJet President and CEO. \"As Canada\'s favourite airline, we continue to pick up more domestic capacity share month over month and now have 37 per cent of the domestic capacity. This July we had more than 100,000 additional guests flying with us than we did a year ago; this is in large part due to our great guest experience and high-value business model.
