REUTERS/Regis DuvignauMay 5 (Reuters) - Air France-KLM (AIRF.PA) on Friday reported better-than-expected first-quarter revenue and robust cash flow as it benefited from a global recovery in air travel and strong summer ticket sales. The carrier's revenue grew 42% year-on-year to 6.33 billion euros ($6.97 billion), just above the 6.30 billion euros expected on average by analysts polled by the company. Air France-KLM said it did not see an impact from the cost- of-living crisis, pointing to more than 1.5 billion euros in ticket sales over the first quarter and to a strong demand across its network. Air France-KLM said the impact from French air-control strikes had been limited and was in the millions of euros, which it quantified as smaller than the impact from previous strikes.

☆ Air France-KLM beats quarterly estimates on travel recovery
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-28 | by ( Dina Kartit | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

Oct 28 (Reuters) - Air France-KLM's (AIRF.PA) quarterly core profit beat expectations on Friday, as the airline company reported favourable demand recovery despite lower capacity and inflationary pressure on costs. Quarterly revenue came in 8.11 billion euros, above 2019 levels. These disruptions resulted in 60 million euros additional compensation costs compared to the same quarter in 2019, Air France-KLM said. Third-quarter traffic and passenger numbers for Transavia, the group's low-cost subsidiary, increased by 45.4% and 41.8%, driven by demand recovery in North Africa and Europe, despite record-high eurozone inflation. Air France-KLM expects seat capacity levels in the fourth quarter, full-year 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 at about 85%, 80% and 90%, respectively, confident that the recovery context will continue.
