Jan 10, 2013 (newstodate): Despite mounting turbulence around Estonian Air in 2012, the carrier still managed to grow its passenger volumes significantly.
A total of 887,563 passengers were carried in 2012, an increase by 31 percent, y-o-y.
December 2012 also saw an increase in Estonian Air's passenger volumes that reached 53,493, up 20 percent.
Operating with a regularity at 98.4 percent and a 15-minutes punctuality at 83.4 percent in 2012, Estonian Air performed a total of 19,539 flights during the year, including 1,232 flights in December alone.
Financially, the airline fared less successfully, filing a loss of 20.2 million euro for January-October 2012.
Its immediate future now hinges on EU's approval of a 8.3 mio euro state loan, expected within the first two months of 2013.
