FY 2026 capacity outlook revised, unit cost guidance unchanged
For 2026, the Group retains an agile approach and expects:
- Capacity up by +2% to +3% compared to 2025 (previously +2% to +4%)-
- Unit cost1 up between 0% and +2%, including +0.5% from premiumization (unchanged)-
- Net capital expenditures below €3bn (unchanged)-
- Leverage ratio between 1.5x - 2.0x (unchanged)-
- Fuel bill is expected at USD 8.9bn3 in FY 2026, compared to previous quarter indication of USD 9.3bn³. The current expected fuel bill reflects an increase of USD 2.0bn compared to FY 2025.
Accounting notification
- The Group has early adopted IFRS 18. Accordingly, the figures for the prior year have been restated to align with the current year's reporting under IFRS 18.
Commenting on the results, Mr. Benjamin Smith, Group CEO, said:
"As expected, the sharp increase in fuel prices significantly impacted our results during the second quarter. Thanks to agile pricing and cost discipline, we were largely able to mitigate this strong headwind, proving once again the resilience of our business model. We delivered strong commercial performance on the back of a steady demand for premium travel, notably on the Asian and North American markets. Going forward, we still expect to navigate in a highly volatile environment. Our adaptability, especially when it comes to our network, will remain one of our strongest assets, together with the unwavering commitment of our teams.
As we execute on operational priorities, we are also moving forward with our long-term strategic ambitions, with consolidation and sustainability at the core of our action. These efforts will allow us to build a stronger Air France-KLM, a true European global champion that is ready for the future."

Adjusted operating profit declined impacted by the geopolitical situation in the Middle East and limited unit cost increase
In the second quarter of 2026, Air France-KLM welcomed 28.3 million passengers, up 3.9% year-on-year. As capacity increased by 2.6% and traffic by 2.5%, the load factor remained broadly stable at 87.7%.
The Group unit revenue per ASK was up 8.7% year-on-year at constant currency, due to premiumization, reduced industry capacity as a result of the Middle East conflict and increased ticket prices. Passenger network unit revenue increased by 8.7% as well, driven by strong yields throughout the quarter. In particular Asia, North America and Caribbean & Indian Ocean performed very well.
Cargo unit revenues increased significantly (26.7% at constant currency) thanks to strong demand resulting in an increase in load factor and yield and, especially in Asia, high unit revenues. Transavia unit revenues increased by 1.6% despite increased capacity.
Q2 unit cost4 was up 1.0% year-on-year, mainly due to supply chain related maintenance cost (+1.1%), premiumization (+0.4%), and higher staff costs (+0.6%), partly compensated by fuel efficiency (-0.4%) and reduced wet leases (-0.6%).
The adjusted operating profit amounted to €484 million, with a margin of 5.2%. This development was supported by an increase in unit revenue of €672 million which was fully offset by a fuel price increase of €804 million (including ETS €26 million) and an €80 million increase in unit cost.
Cash
In the second quarter Air France-KLM has signed a new multi-purpose credit facility (undrawn) for an amount of €1 billion with a syndicate of 12 international banks, further enhancing the Group's financial flexibility and diversified funding structure, and a €500 million5 5-year senior bond was issued with a 4.25% fixed annual coupon. During the quarter the following instruments were redeemed:
- €500 million Sustainability Linked Bond (coupon 7.25%)
- Circa €300 million KLM perpetual (CHF 270m, coupon 5.75%)
- The remaining €282 million of an initial bond of €500 million (coupon 3.875%)
In July, the Group redeemed €500 million perpetual bonds (coupon: 6.9%) issued by an ad hoc operating affiliate of Air France owning Maintenance assets to Apollo. The transaction three years ago supported Air France-KLM in its trajectory to come back to a positive equity position under IFRS and the Group thanks Apollo for the smooth partnership during this trajectory.
For the first half year, the Group reported a positive recurring adjusted operating free cash flow6 of €928 million, up €148 million year on year. This increase was mainly driven by net capex, which improved by almost €300 million mainly thanks to an agreement between KLM and Schiphol7. Cash flow before change in working capital was impacted due to the payment of the Cargo claim of €368 million. The working capital movement was impacted by the payment of deferrals inherited from the pandemic amounting to €251 million.
Net debt remained broadly stable at €8.4 billion. The leverage ratio stood at 1.6x, in line with the Group's ambition of 1.5x to 2.0x.
At the end of June 2026, cash at hand stood at €10.38 billion, above the targeted range of €6-8 billion.

Fleet renewal
Fleet renewal is a cornerstone of the Group's Transition Plan for climate change mitigation. Air France-KLM continues to take delivery of new generation aircraft consuming up to 25% less fuel per passenger km and reduce the noise footprint by up to 63% compared to the previous generation aircraft they replace.
At the end of June 2026, 38% of the Group's fleet consisted of new-generation aircraft, up 8 points compared to end of June 2025. The Group plans to have up to 80% of its fleet composed of new-generation aircraft by 2030.
GHG intensity (SBTi standard)
At the end of June 2026, the indicator was 905 gCO2eq/RTK, which represents a 1.2% reduction compared to end of June 2025.
Competitiveness and decarbonization
On June 12, 2026, Air France-KLM took part in the Paris Air Forum. The Group's presence reflected both the breadth of challenges currently facing the aviation industry and Air France-KLM's determination to engage constructively in the debates shaping its future: geopolitical resilience and fair competition; decarbonization and regulatory reform to address the competitive distortions created by regulations such as the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) mandates, which place European carriers at a structural disadvantage compared to their international competitors. The Group's leaders made clear that while the current environment is demanding, Air France-KLM remains committed to its strategic direction.
Post quarter event
TAP Air Portugal
On July 29, Air France-KLM announced it has submitted a binding offer to Parpública?for the acquisition of a 44.9% to 49.9% stake in TAP Air Portugal, marking a decisive step in the airline's privatization process.
The bid is welcomed by Air France-KLM joint venture partner and shareholder Delta Air Lines. Delta Air Lines' support and alignment reflects a shared ambition to further strengthen Portugal's global connectivity, particularly on the North Atlantic.
If selected, Air France-KLM would position Lisbon as its unique Southern European hub, reinforcing the Group's global network and expanding connectivity to key markets, particularly in the Americas and Africa. TAP's leading position on strategic routes to Brazil would be a strong complement to Air France-KLM's existing route portfolio, which is already connected to a dense domestic network in Brazil as part of a long-standing partnership with Brazilian carrier GOL.
As part of the binding offer submitted today, Air France-KLM laid out its plan to develop new Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) activities in Portugal, complementary to the continued development of the Group's own activities in France and Netherlands.

Sale KLM Catering Services
On 1st of July, KLM and gategroup completed the acquisition of KLM Catering Services (KCS). Gategroup now holds a 75% stake in KCS, while KLM retains a 25% interest and will remain closely involved in the onboard services for its passengers. KCS will in any case continue to serve as KLM's caterer for the next twenty years.
The partnership is part of KLM's "Back on Track" improvement program. By joining forces with gategroup, a global leader in airline catering and hospitality with operations in more than 60 countries, KLM is taking an important step toward preparing KCS for the future. In the period ahead, gategroup and KLM will continue to work together on the further development of KCS, with a focus on quality, reliability, innovation, and sustainability. At the same time, work is underway on a new facility at Schiphol.

Update on fuel price
Given the current hedges and forward curves, the full year 2026 hedging result amounts to USD 1.6bn11 and the hedging result in Q2 amounted to USD 0.6bn. Despite hedging, a total fuel bill of USD 8.9bn¹ is estimated for 2026, representing an increase of USD 2.0bn¹, compared to FY 2025.
The percentage of fuel consumption already hedged for 2026 is 67% and 40% for 2027. Given the volatile market, strict adherence to the Group's hedging policy was suspended from April 1st, 2026 and partly resumed in May, with a focus on 2027 and beyond.
In response to the Middle East conflict and the reduction of industry capacity, the Group swiftly reallocated capacity by upgauging its fleet to Asia and East Africa and added additional flights. Air France-KLM introduced measures to mitigate the fuel price impact by including a higher carrier-imposed surcharge per ticket, following similar strategies by competitors. On the cost side, measures were also taken, discretionary costs are being minimized and the hiring of non-operational staff has been put on hold.
FY 2026 capacity outlook: actively managed to optimize returns in a volatile context
The Group expects:
Air France-KLM Network:
- Long haul: Circa +2% (previously +2% to +4%)
- Short & Medium haul: Circa -1% (previously stable)
Transavia:
- Circa +8% (previously +8% to +10%)
Air France-KLM Group:
- Total: +2% to +3% (previously +2% to +4%)
FY 2026 capacity outlook revised, unit cost guidance unchanged
The Group retains an agile approach and expects:
- Capacity up by +2% to +3% compared to 2025 (previously +2% to +4%).
- Unit cost12 up between 0% and +2%, including +0.5% from cabin premiumization (unchanged).
- Net capital expenditures below €3bn (unchanged).
- Leverage ratio between 1.5x - 2.0x (unchanged)-

| Operating margin (%) | 6.1% | -3.5 pt | 4.5% | +0.7 pt | ||
Compared to the second quarter of 2025, total revenues increased by 9.7% to €7.6 billion. The adjusted operating profit reached €466 million, down €134 million year-on-year at constant currency. The decrease is fully driven by the increase in unit cost and increase in ETS cost.
Due to the geopolitical issues in the Middle East the fuel price spiked in March, but given the delay in pricing, this increase was visible in the second quarter. Thanks to active passenger yield management and benefits from increased demand, mainly on non-stop Asia, India and East Africa routes due to Gulf hub avoidance, and thanks to strong Cargo unit revenues, the fuel price impact was fully offset for the Network business.
Cargo showed a positive unit revenue development compared to last year due to strong industry demand and increased pricing following the rising fuel price.
The operating margin of the Network business amounted to 6.1%, a decrease of 3.5 points compared to the second quarter of 2025.
Premium and long-haul demand continued to support strong yields

| Unit revenue per ASK (€ cts) | 9.34 | +6.2% | +8.7% | 8.75 | +4.3% | +7.0% |
During the second quarter of 2026, capacity in Available Seat Kilometers (ASK) was 1.7% higher than last year. Traffic growth (1.1%) has led to a slightly lower load factor of 86.9%. Yield at constant currency showed an increase of 9.2%, leading to a unit revenue increase of 8.7% year-on-year at constant currency. The yield increase was mainly driven by the front cabins (La Premiere, Business) with a double-digit growth and Premium yield growth of 9.1%. Yield in the economy class was up 6.1%.
During the second quarter we observed the following trends in:
North Atlantic
Unit revenue was up, driven by a strong 8.9% yield increase. The performance was particularly strong in front cabins, despite significant capacity growth.
Latin America
Capacity grew by 4.5% while unit revenue grew on the back of a healthy yield development (+5.5%), and broadly stable load factor.
Asia & Middle East
The Group's capacity to Middle East was reduced by 80% while Asia showed a modest growth of almost 4%, resulting in a total capacity reduction of 4%. Asia benefits from Gulf hub avoidance, in particular in India. This effect is however decreasing with Gulf carriers' capacity close to pre-war levels. Yield growth year-on-year amounted to 20.3%.
Caribbean & Indian Ocean
Yield in this region grew by 11%, supported by some attractive destinations. Load factor benefited as well with an increase of 1 point compared to the same period last year.
Africa
Strong performance driven by a yield increase of 8.6%, however the load factor went down by 2.2 points. East & South Africa benefit from Gulf Hub avoidance.
Short and Medium-haul
Geopolitical dynamics continued to drive high-yielding long-haul connecting traffic. This was complemented by strong local close-in demand for European and domestic routes for Air France. Strategic initiatives also contributed significantly, including the successful transfer of part of the ORY short-haul seat to CDG, supported by long-haul connecting traffic as well as strong corporate demand.
Cargo: Very strong unit revenue development

| Unit revenue per ATK (€cts) | 16.26 | +24.0% | +26.7% | 15.23 | +8.4% | +12.6% |
Global air cargo capacity started to normalize towards the end of Q2, as Middle East disruption eased, Gulf hub capacity was restored and operational pressure reduced. However, demand continued to outpace capacity growth on several key lanes, keeping the market relatively tight.
In 2026's second quarter, the Group's Cargo business achieved an impressive increase of revenue per ATK against a constant currency of 26.7%. Since the Middle East conflict started, reduced industry capacity and strong industry demand, fueled by demand for semiconductors and AI-related hardware, increased the Group's yield by 17.2% and load factor by 3.7pt to 49.2%. Cargo carried 237 million kilograms, representing an 8.9% increase year-on-year. The capacity grew 2.9%, despite limitations in full freighter capacity due to scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and traffic increased by 11.3% year-on-year.
Transavia: positive unit revenue development insufficient to mitigate fuel price increase

| Adjusted Operating Profit (€m) | -35 | -52 | -265 | -84 |
| Operating margin (%) | -3.3% | -5.2pt | -16.3% | -4.0pt |
In the second quarter, Transavia's capacity in Available Seat Kilometers grew 7.3%, while traffic increased by 9.3%, resulting in an increase in load factor of 1.7 points. Yield remained broadly stable, resulting in a unit revenue increase of 1.6%.
The capacity growth is accompanied by focused actions on unit cost reduction and network profitability, in a highly competitive environment. Transavia France and Transavia Netherlands are both currently in the middle of a fleet transition from B737 to the A320-NEO family. Due to the geopolitical situation, Transavia cancelled flights to and from Israel, Lebanon and Saudi Arabia and experienced negative booking trends to nearby destinations like Egypt, Cyprus and Turkey.
Transavia France results are temporarily impacted by taking over Air France operations at Orly which was completed by the end of the first quarter.
Maintenance business: Continued growth in third party revenues

In the second quarter, the third-party revenues went up 9.5% and total revenues increased by 2.9%. The supply chain remains highly disrupted, particularly as a result of GE90-related challenges and the geopolitical situation, slowing margin improvement. The adjusted operating profit and the operating margin remained at the same level as last year.
Joint venture Air France-KLM and Aercap
Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance and AerCap Holdings N.V. have announced the signing of an agreement to establish a 50/50 LEAP engine leasing joint venture to support the growing demand for LEAP spare engines. The joint venture follows the memorandum of understanding announced at the Paris Air Show in 2025, and is subject to the necessary approvals by the relevant authorities.
The joint venture will provide spare engine support to AFI KLM E&M customers operating LEAP-powered aircraft worldwide and is expected to initially acquire approximately 40 new CFM LEAP-1A and LEAP-1B spare engines. Deliveries are scheduled through 2032, with the first four LEAP engines expected to be available to AFI KLM E&M customers by early 2027.

| Operating margin (%) | 4.1% | -5.9pt | 2.5% | -1.2pt |
The adjusted operating profit reached €225 million in the second quarter, down €290 million year-on-year. The operating margin decreased by 5.9 points compared to Q2 last year, impacted by a higher fuel price and higher unit costs. This evolution was primarily driven by higher salary, maintenance and flight-related costs, partly offset by favorable passenger unit revenue and strong cargo unit revenue.

| Adjusted Operating Profit (in €m) | 176 | +3 | 68 | +92 |
| Operating margin (%) | 4.5% | -0.5pt | 1.0% | +1.4pt |
In the second quarter, KLM reported an adjusted operating profit of €176 million, an improvement of €3 million year-on-year, driven by strong Passenger network and Cargo revenues, compensating higher fuel cost. The unit cost was largely unchanged as the Back on Track program improved productivity which compensated the increase in salary cost. The reduction in wet leases compensated for the increased maintenance cost due to supply chain issues.
Flying Blue: Revenue and operating margin accelerating

In the second quarter, Flying Blue Miles generated €325 million in revenue, of which €243 million (up €+86 million), came from third-party airline and non-airline partners. Operating margin rose 3 points to 28.0%, absorbing a weaker USD. This growth is broad-based, durable, and it compounds for Air France-KLM: driving incremental revenues to the airlines and contributing to yield-optimization efforts across the Group.

On April 9, 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued its new standard IFRS 18, "Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements", aimed at improving the usefulness of information presented in the primary financial statements and the notes.
The main changes relate to:
- improving the comparability of the income statement by introducing three distinct categories of income and expenses (operating, investing and financing), and by requiring new subtotals, including operating profit;
- improving the transparency of management-defined performance measures;
- introducing rules and guidance on how to aggregate and disaggregate financial information both in the primary financial statements and in the notes.
IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with early application permitted from January 1, 2026. It was adopted by the European Union on February 13, 2026. The Group decided to early adopt IFRS 18 in 2026.
2025 financial statements were restated retrospectively, allowing comparability of the financial statements for the comparative periods in accordance with IFRS principles.
| In M€ | YTD | YTD (Y-1) | Quarter | Quarter (Y-1) | Full year 2025 |
| Current Operating income before IFRS 18 | 448 | 409 | 476 | 736 | 2,004 |
| Dividends Received | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | -1 |
| Pension - Interest cost | 28 | 26 | 13 | 13 | 50 |
| Realized foreign exchange gain (losses) - Operating | 2 | -4 | -5 | -14 | 16 |
| ADJUSTED OPERATING PROFIT (AFTER IFRS 18) | 478 | 431 | 484 | 735 | 2,069 |
With regard to the performance measures used and communicated by the Group, "Adjusted EBITDA" and "Adjusted operating result" replace "Recurring EBITDA" and "Recurring operating result," respectively. They remain comparable in terms of content. The bridge for 2025 is available in the appendices below.
- Dividends received: Previously presented in "revenues," are now classified within the line "Foreign exchange gains (losses), on derivatives and other (investing)".
- Finance cost related to defined benefit pension obligations: Corresponds to the reclassification of the undiscounting pension provisions and retirements benefits within the financing section of the income statement. Previously recognized in the "staff costs" line, is now presented in the line "undiscounting of provisions", within profit before tax.
- Foreign exchange results and impacts on derivatives: Previously recognized in the line "other financial income and expenses," are now allocated to the subtotal to which they relate, within the three distinct categories of the income statement: "Foreign exchange gains (losses) (operating) after hedging," "Foreign exchange gains (losses), on derivatives and other (investing)," and "Foreign exchange gains (losses), on derivatives and other (financing)".
