The revision of engines and grounded aircraft will impact Volaris until 2027, according to the airline. Despite these circumstances, Volaris managed to achieve profits of 126 million dollars by the end of 2024, thanks to operational improvements and greater expansion in its international network. Although the company's operating revenue suffered a decrease of 3.6 percent compared to the previous year, it reached 3 billion 142 million dollars.
Enrique Beltranena, CEO of Volaris, pointed out that despite the challenges generated by engine inspections and grounded aircraft, the airline achieved one of its best results in revenue and profitability. The company's operating cash flow increased by 38.6 percent compared to 2023, reaching 1 billion 141 million dollars.
Despite the positive results of 2024, Volaris anticipates that its fleet will continue to be affected by P&W engine reviews in the future. The company is focused on coordinating three key areas to maximize return on investment: balancing retreats, inspections, and GTF engine returns; managing the delivery of new Airbus aircraft; and optimizing aircraft returns and lease extensions.
Volaris, the Mexican airline with the highest passenger traffic, projects that by 2025 it will concentrate 40 percent of its seating capacity in the international market.
