BA Traffic Climbs In July; Shares Rise 9.5%





By Jonathan Buck

Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

LONDON -(Dow Jones)- British Airways PLC (BAY.LN) Wednesday reported passenger traffic in July edged up 1% year-on-year as capacity declined, resulting in a rise in the proportion of available seats filled.

The load factor, or the proportion of available seats filled with paying passengers, last month climbed 3.1 percentage points to 84.6%, from 81.5% in the same month a year ago.

The news was welcomed by investors. At 1335 GMT, BA's shares soared 14 pence, or 9.5%, to 165 pence, making it the second-biggest gainer in the London benchmark FTSE 100 index, which traded up 0.2%.

Traffic, measured in revenue passenger kilometers, or RPKs, in July rose to 10.84 billion RPKs from 10.73 billion RPKs. Premium traffic dropped 11% on the year, while non-premium traffic eked out a 3.5% gain, BA said.

Capacity, measure in available seat kilometers, or ASKs, shrank 2.7% year-on-year to 12.82 billion ASKs from 13.17 billion ASKs.

The U.K. flag carrier previously has said that volumes and seat factors had stabilized during the first quarter and were expected to improve in the peak summer months.

marni,i got the impression he just hated BA neither,hate or love should never come into buying or selling a stock.

capetown

hyleo also just posts predictions on price which is stupid also......as he doesnt post any reason why or on fundamentals. i've lost count on the the number of shares that he's so badly wrong on

Lets see if we get past 170 and look forward to 200p

would not be surprised to see a general pullback today, and BA would certainly be a forerunner for that.
by the time i land at heathrow all will have been revealed

Happy landings Cynic,hope you remembered to bring a brolly for the homecoming!

sun shines on the righteous (and the Chosen!), so you will have noticed the warm sunny late afternoon!

I did Cynic,
BA have visited 170 both today and yesterday,so it will be interesting to see where we go,having said that they did drop back to 163 earler today.

but look to have closed right on the button .... for sure don't buy until this level is broken

TOP heavy on BA Cynic,been buying for years with average of 130p,have missed out on profit due to greed in the past.

if o'weight, then seriously consider banking some profits now you have the chance ...... london may open stronger on monday as Dow is currently powering ahead (+165), but nothing goes up (or down) indefinitely, and you'll then free up funds for other opportunities

Cynic,i am seriously thinking of offloading 5k shares and topping up @ gkp.

agree with first part but GKP is much more of an out-and-out gamble ...... 8k x GKP = 26,500 shares which is fine if they go up, but they could easily slip back to say 20p just on lack of interest until the next news .... and if that disappoints, then sp could dump in one move to 10/12p

Thats my concern,but i did get 10,ooo, gkp at 14p,i could afford to see a retrace if i do top up @ 29.50,having said that i am looking really hard to recoup amer losses,but still holding so not a loss unless i sell,i will give it pleanty of thought over the weekend,thx for your imput.Trust you are well rested after your holiday.

bad policy ..... of course amer is a loss and it is prob questionable whether or not you should still be holding them ..... should you hold 36,000 GKP? ..... not for me to answer, but i suspect your total pot/fund is relatively small, so to be heavily o'weight (i guess) in a real spiv stock sounds very much like trying to catch a guillotibne, never mind a falling knife

i have decided to take my profit (166.5) as markets are beginning to look a little soggy - not surprisingly - and sp clearly struglling to breach 170

Still here holding for now Cynic,did not venture into gkp.
