Allegiant's passenger numbers up over 70% in October

The Las Vegas-based Allegiant Travel Company carried 829,029 passengers during the month of October, up just 3% from 2019 figures, but up over 71% from last October, bringing the total for this quarter to 3,834,956 people.

"We finished the quarter with capacity up just over 14 percent as compared with 2019," stated Gregory Anderson, executive vice president and chief financial officer. "We expect total revenue to be up roughly 5.3 percent when compared with 2019, just above our updated guidance of up three to five percent. Revenue strength was driven primarily by better than expected bookings during the back half of September. Despite a more favourable revenue environment, we are updating our adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to 15.5 to 16.5 percent. The updated range is primarily attributable to higher than anticipated irregular operations costs. Excluding heightened levels of irregular operations costs, adjusted EBITDA margin would have been roughly 24 percent."

Plug Power invests in Airflow to bring hydrogen fuel cell propulsion system to part 23 aircraft

Airflow, an aerospace company building a next-gen electric Short Takeoff and Landing (eSTOL) aircraft, has announced an investment from Plug Power Inc., a leading provider of hydrogen engines and fueling solutions enabling e-mobility. Under this new partnership, the companies are co-developing and certifying a hydrogen fuel cell-based propulsion system designed for a new generation of sub-regional aircraft. Working with Airflow is part of Plug Power’s ongoing strategy to bring its proven hydrogen ProGen fuel cell technology to new markets including a variety of missions and aircraft types within the aerospace industry. This partnership also furthers Plug Power’s ambitions to build a hydrogen economy and achieve its 5-year, $1.2B roadmaps outlined in 2019.

Airflow has recently secured over $600M in Letters of Intent (LOIs) from eleven airlines operating sub-regional aircraft. With an initial fleet replacement strategy, Airflow intends to accelerate bringing these carbon-neutral aircraft to market, offering airlines several options to match the best propulsion solution to their missions. This flexibility enables Airflow to rapidly meet customer demand and broaden the application of hydrogen as well as other carbon-neutral propulsion solutions including batteries and Sustainable Aviation Fuel hybrid solutions. Plug Power will also serve as Airflow’s preferred hydrogen provider, opening up more opportunities for Plug Power’s hydrogen refuelling infrastructure to co-locate at customer airports. This work is an extension of Plug Power’s ongoing partnership with Albany International Airport where their hydrogen fuel cell solutions power ground support equipment.
