In 2024, Ukrainian airline SkyUp Airlines increased passenger traffic by 61.6% compared to 2023, carrying 2.5 million passengers last year, its press service said on Monday.
The number of flights operated by SkyUp Airlines in 2024 also increased by 60.7% to 16,927. The number of routes increased from 664 in 2023 to 851 in 2024, the company said in a Facebook post.
It is noted that in 2024, SkyUp Airlines received a SAFA rating of 0.16, one of the best in European aviation. This rating is a safety indicator and is associated with the SAFA (Safety Assessment of Foreign Aircraft) program, which is conducted by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and national aviation authorities in Europe.
In addition, the airline has passed the IOSA (IATA Operational Safety Audit) audit, an international audit program developed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) to assess the operational safety of airlines.
Among other things, it was noted that the air carrier has implemented AMOS (Aircraft Maintenance and Engineering Operating System), a leading integrated management system for aircraft maintenance and repair. With its help, the company was able to improve resource management and stability of operations. In the future, the company expects to reduce spare parts costs and minimize aircraft downtime.
Earlier it was reported that from April 2025, SkyUp Airlines will start operating regular flights from Chisinau (Moldova) to the most popular destinations in Ukraine: France, Portugal, Spain, Greece, and Cyprus.
In 2023, SkyUp increased passenger traffic by 24% to 1.546 million.
