ARC RELEASES JANUARY OPERATING STATISTICS
- STATISTICS REFLECT CONTINUING ECONOMIC STRUGGLE -
Arlington, VA February 19, 2003 - ARC has released its January 2003 operating statistics, which remain disappointingly similar to recent months and reflect the continuing struggle to recover during these difficult economic times. Total sales were down three percent compared to January 2002 to $4,647,527,000. Fares continue to be down in month to month comparisons. Domestic fares were down seven percent to $2,707.959,000 and international fares were down one percent to $1,426,106,000.
On a bright note, weekly sales per agency location had a record month in January, and were up fourteen percent over January 2002. Electronic ticketing use also continues to rise, with 80.3 percent of total agent ticketing being e-tickets.
Archived copies of ARC's monthly statistics can be found on ARC's Web site at http://www.arccorp.com/news/news_sales_doc_stats.html.
