Spot on tompo. Market share is the big stat. Been going to up from 4.2 to 4.4 over the last year or so.
As for the May growth outstripping others, we did lag behind initially post COVID....remember how Bristol nearly caught up. So it could be catch up. Time will tell.
Nonetheless, some impressive numbers. Just hope the powers that be start taking some bold decisions on the capacity and the terminals......and get rid of that disgusting tent.

CAA May 2025 figures:-
Passengers:- 1,263,991 up 7.5% on May 2024
Freight:- 6,304 tonnes, down 30.2% on May 2024
estimated load factors:-
Jeddah (Saudi) load factor of only 49%, is this an error by the CAA, or are the passenger numbers dropping, bit concerning, especially if PIA do start later this year?

I think you are correct with the Saudi Load... though i calculate the LF as a whopping 51% rather than 49%...
I can see why you might be concerned, but believe it or not, that's a whopping 18.6% increase on May'24 when there was a Load Factor of 39%! May is always a low season for travel to the Middle east as it marks the end of Eid and then followed by Hajj. Whilst the likes of EK and QR have a significant amount of transiting passengers not bothered by the Islam calendar, i suspect with a much smaller route network, SV is much more impacted...
as for SV Loads 2024 vs 2025, this is it do far:
| 2024 | 2025 | |
| Jan | 4,895 (54%) | 8,227 (91%) |
| Feb | 5,294 (68%) | 6,381 (76%) |
| Mar | 4,851 (59%) | 6,360 (69%) |
| Apr | 5,114 (59%) | 6,798 (86%) |
| May | 3,375 (39%) | 4,003 (51%) |
| Jun | 3,378 (44%) | 4,962 (62%) |
| 6 Month Total: | 26,907 Pax | 36,731 Pax (+36.5%) |
to be expected re: Amritsar, May was when conflict broke out with India and Pakistan....

Eid moves each year. This year the two Eids were in late March and early June. They are normally marked by increased passenger traffic.

Well be that as it "may" but all Middle east carries see big passenger decreases travelling between the UK which is not experienced to the same extreme for other destinations from the UK at that time...
Alas, low pax levels on a middle-east carrier in May from any airport in the UK is pretty standard....

I appreciate that others have already provided statistics for May, however I trust you will forgive me producing my own variant.

So BHX mid table then. More work to do!.
EMA in the relegation zone! .
Significant that EasyJet bases show healthy increases. We should benefit further in the next few years.

Great to see full loads on EK37/38 and 39/40 today and Qatar full aswell

If they're not full at the moment, then BHX would have a problem. It's factory shut down weeks. There should barely be a spare seat on any flight.

Agree on the Qatar....however with EK, loads taken over a period of time need to be looked at, not just these few holiday weeks. Consistently high loads will trigger a 3rd daily and/or competition from another carrier. A second daily QR might just do the trick.Need that 3rd daily Emirates Karl
All seriousness we need a second Qatar daily

Outbound EK loads for last two weeks are full
Saudi last two flights outbounds full
But they were not as good before the kids holidays let hope they stay full till early September and beyond
Qatar are happy always being full and I cannot see tham expanding soon as they are pillingt capacity into LHR / MAN so absorbing all our overspill.
Etihad have never shown an interest in BHX

Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
