Domestic Market
In January, GOL still recorded a significant 17.8% reduction in the domestic market supply. This reduction was chiefly due to the discontinuation of Boeing 737-300 related to the shutting down of Webjet's operating activities and the relocation of domestic capacity to international operations.
Load factor in the domestic market came to 2.1 p.p. up over January 2012, reaching 73.5% in the period. Due to the reduced supply mentioned above, demand in the period was 15.4% down year-on-year.
International Market
Supply in January on the international market was 34.2% up year-on-year, chiefly due to new daily routes to Santo Domingo, Miami and Orlando which started by the end of last year. Demand in same period increased by 18.8%.
Load factor on the international market was 8.6 p.p. down year-on-year, due to the fact mentioned above associated with the aging period effect of new routes which started on December 15, 2012.
