SpiceJet has highest load factor at 92%, IndiGo retains a third of market in August

New Delhi - SpiceJet was again able to beat market leader IndiGo and all other airlines with a passenger load factor of 92.1% this August, when domestic air travel grew almost 21 percent year on year.
SpiceJet was in fact the only airline which managed to fill 9 in 10 seats across its aircraft since two other LCC competitors, GoAir and IndiGo, managed only 75.6% and 76.8% load factors respectively, as per DGCA data.
Put simply, this means GoAir and IndiGo were unable to fill about one in four seats when SpiceJet was unable to fill only one in 10. Jet Airways was the second in this packing order since it managed to get 8 in 10 seats filled across its aircraft.
Vistara continued to be at the bottom in this ranking with barely two thirds of its aircraft seats occupied; Air India managed to fill almost 8 in 10 seats while AirAsia India was at 72.1%.
