easyJet reports nearly 10% jump in passengers during October.

The London-listed company, which recently announced that it was paying around £35m for bankrupt Air Berlin’s slots at the German capital’s Tegel  airport, transported just over 7.5 million passengers in October.

Budget airline easyJet recorded a 9.9 per cent increase in passenger numbers last month, despite French strikes leading to a slew of cancellations.

The London-listed company, which recently announced that it was paying around £35m for bankrupt Air Berlin’s slots at the German capital’s Tegel  airport, on Monday said that it had transported just over 7.5 million passengers during October, up from just over 6.8 million throughout the same month in 2016.

The load factor, which indicates the number of passengers as a proportion of the number of seats available, also increased by 2.3 percentage points to 92.5 per cent.
