Vueling has announced its traffic statistics for February 2010 featuring a 4.5 percentage point increase in the seat load factor.
The airline carried 685,224 passengers in February, 102.4% more than the 338,589 carried the same month one year earlier, partially resulting from its merger with clickair in July 2009.

Capacity, however, only increase by 81.9% to 831,212,000 available seat kilometres (ASKs) from 456,942,000, thus creating the 4.5 percentage point load factor increase.
The carrier operated 5,349 flights in February, a 90.1% increase on the 2,814 flown in February 2009.
