The filing reports total operating revenues of $1,075,739,000 for 2024, representing a 2% increase from the previous year. This growth was driven by increases in Cargo and Other revenues, despite a slight decline in Passenger revenue.
Passenger revenue decreased by 1% to $914,087,000, impacted by a 9% decrease in total fare per passenger due to increased industry capacity. However, Scheduled Service departures increased by 11%, and Charter revenue grew by 4% due to higher revenue per block hour.
Cargo revenue increased by 7% to $107,174,000, primarily driven by rate escalations under the Amended and Restated Air Transportation Services Agreement with Amazon.
Operating expenses rose by 5% to $969,753,000, with significant increases in Salaries, Wages, and Benefits, Maintenance, and Landing Fees and Airport Rent. The cost of Aircraft Fuel decreased by 4% due to an 11% drop in fuel cost per gallon.
Net income for the year was $52,903,000, down from $72,181,000 in 2023. The decrease was influenced by higher operating expenses and a reduction in interest income.
