Tiger Singapore increased November traffic by a terrific 33% yoy

Tiger Australia even more impressive with 110% traffic spike.

In its operating statistics report released to the Singapore Exchange, Singapore Airlines' budget carrier Tiger Airways revealed that Tiger Singapore recorded a 33% increase in traffic to 721 million revenue passenger-kilometres (RPK) for the month of November 2012. This comes on the back of a 17% increase in capacity to 852 million available seat-kilometres (ASK).

Consequently, y-o-y passenger load factor was 10 percentage points higher at 85%. The number of passengers carried grew 30% year-on-year (y-o-y) to 389,000 passengers.

For the 12 months to November 2012, Tiger Singapore recorded a 21% increase in traffic to 7.4 billion RPK, following a 20% increase in capacity to 9.0 billion ASK. Consequently, passenger load factor was 83%, up one percentage point from the previous corresponding period. The number of passengers carried grew 13% y-o-y to 4.1 million passengers.

Meanwhile, Tiger Australia recorded a 110% increase in traffic to 256 million RPK for the month of November 2012. Capacity increased 113% to 296 million ASK for the month. The airline carried 239,000 passengers in November 2012, representing an increase of 132% y-o-y. However, the airline was operating at a significantly reduced capacity and on a limited schedule in November 2011. Passenger load factor, at 86%, reflected a y-o-y decline of two percentage points.

For the 12 months to November 2012, Tiger Australia recorded a 3% decline in traffic to 2.3 billion RPK, following a 1% decline in capacity to 2.9 billion ASK. Consequently, passenger load factor was 82%, down two percentage points from the earlier period. The number of passengers carried was down 10% y-o-y to 1.9 million passengers.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
