Volaris Reports July 2026 Traffic Results: Load Factor of 88%

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 05, 2026 (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 July 2026 preliminary traffic results.

In July, Volaris’ ASM capacity increased 14.4%, while RPMs for the month grew 18.5%. Mexican domestic RPMs rose 16.0%, while international RPMs increased 22.4%. Consolidated load factor increased by 3.0 percentage points year-over-year to 87.9%. During the month, Volaris transported 3.3 million passengers.

Enrique Beltranena, Volaris’ President and CEO, said: “July’s strong performance validates our decision to grow capacity to capture peak summer demand, delivering the economics we anticipated for the month. Load factors were robust in the month, reflecting healthy demand across both international and domestic markets as we continue to deploy capacity in a disciplined manner across our markets. As we transition out of the peak summer travel season, we will trim capacity growth going into the fall in an effort to match our supply of seats to current demand patterns.”
