In a media communiqu\u00e9 published early last week, LATAM Airlines Group<\/strong> released preliminary monthly traffic statistics for August 2013 compared to August 2012.<\/p>\n

System-wide passenger <\/strong>traffic increased 1.6% as capacity decreased 0.4%. As a result, the Company\u2019s load factor for the month increased 1.6 points to 80.9%. International passenger traffic accounted for approximately 52% of the month\u2019s total passenger traffic.<\/p>\n

Domestic passenger <\/strong>traffic for Spanish<\/strong> speaking operations (Chile, Argentina, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia) rose 9.0%, as capacity decreased 13.2%. As a consequence, the domestic passenger load factor decreased 2.9 points to 77.0%.<\/p>\n

Domestic passenger<\/strong> traffic in Brazil<\/strong> decreased 1.7%, as capacity decreased 7.1%. As a consequence, the domestic Brazil passenger load factor increased 4.3 points to 78.7%.<\/p>\n

International passenger<\/strong> traffic increased 1.8%, while capacity increased 0.7%. Accordingly, the international passenger load factor for the month increased 0.9 points to 83.6%. International traffic includes international operations of both LAN and TAM on regional and long haul routes.<\/p>\n

Cargo<\/strong> traffic decreased 1.2% as capacity decreased 1.1%. As a consequence, the cargo load factor decreased remained flat at 56.8%. The decline in cargo traffic was driven by weaker imports into Latin America.<\/p>\n

Notes<\/strong>: (1) Domestic SSC = Domestic passenger operations in Spanish speaking countries carried by LAN. Passenger statistics include domestic operations in Chile, Peru, Argentina, Ecuador and Colombia. (2) Domestic Brazil = Domestic passenger operations of TAM in Brazil. (3) International = International passenger operations of LAN and TAM. Historical figures for 2011 and 2012 have been restated to include both LAN and TAM operations.
