Insights

Volaris shows slight capacity growth amid load factor decline; management remains optimistic about summer demand despite mixed June results.

Volaris' June traffic report reveals a nuanced performance picture with marginal capacity growth of 0.6% year-over-year, while revenue passenger miles (RPMs) declined by 1.4%. This mismatch resulted in a load factor decrease of 1.7 percentage points to 83.9%, indicating slightly less efficient capacity utilization compared to last year.

Breaking down the performance by market segments, domestic Mexican operations showed concerning signs with a 2.0% RPM decline despite management's claim of "robust" domestic load factors. International performance was somewhat better with only a 0.4% RPM decrease, but still experienced a substantial load factor drop of 2.9 percentage points to 76.2%.

The year-to-date metrics provide important context, showing overall passenger growth of 6.7% through June, though this growth has come at the expense of efficiency, with the company's total load factor down 2.3 percentage points for the year. This suggests Volaris has been adding capacity faster than passenger demand has grown.

CEO Beltranena's commentary about "evolving immigration policies" in the U.S. market points to external challenges the airline is navigating. His emphasis on "optimizing close-in fares to maximize unit revenue" suggests the company is using tactical pricing strategies to manage yield despite the softer load factors.

The divergence between modest monthly passenger growth (0.2%) and declining RPMs indicates a shift toward shorter flight segments. While Volaris transported roughly the same number of passengers year-over-year, these passengers flew fewer miles collectively, which typically impacts revenue generation negatively.

MEXICO CITY, July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Controladora Vuela Compañía de Aviación, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: VLRS and BMV: VOLAR) (“Volaris� or “the Company�), the ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC) serving Mexico, the United States, Central and South America, reports its June 2025 preliminary traffic results.

In June, Volaris� ASM capacity increased 0.6%, while RPMs for the month decreased 1.4%. Mexican domestic RPMs declined 2.0%, while international RPMs decreased 0.4%. As a result, the load factor decreased by 1.7 percentage points year-over-year to 83.9%. During the month, Volaris transported 2.4 million passengers.

Enrique Beltranena, Volaris� President and CEO, said: “Volaris� capacity growth continues to align with our guidance, and it appears industry-wide capacity growth in Mexico remains aligned with current passenger demand patterns. Domestic load factors remain robust, reflecting ongoing strong demand. In the U.S market, we navigated evolving immigration policies during the month, and we are pleased that transborder demand proved resilient. Our results demonstrate our ability to optimize close-in fares to maximize unit revenue. As we move into the peak season, we anticipate sequential improvement in demand and are actively preparing for stronger summer traffic.�
