INDIAN DOMESTIC AVIATION:MAY09 UPDATE
Domestic air traffic received a fillip in April, with 1.55 lakh more passengers flying than in the previous month. According to the latest data released by the civil aviation ministry, the domestic passenger traffic picked up marginally, having reported a 12 per cent fall in the first three months of calendar year 2009.
The Vijay Mallya-led Kingfisher Airlines and its low-cost arm Kingfisher Red led the pack, flying 8.61 lakh passengers, almost 26 per cent of the total domestic traffic. That was followed by Jet Airways and JetLite — flying 7.96 lakh, cornering 24.1 per cent of traffic — and Air India (domestic) with 5.83 lakh flyers, getting a 17.6 per cent share. The total number of domestic passengers carried by scheduled domestic carriers in April was 33.15 lakh, compared with 31.60 lakh a month ago. Among low-cost carriers, IndiGo flew 4.54 lakh air travellers, followed by 3.87 lakh of SpiceJet and 1.45 lakh of GoAir. The all-business class airline Paramount Airways carried 0.75 lakh passengers.
Low-cost carriers like IndiGo and SpiceJet wrestled 13.7 and 11.7 per cent of the total traffic. GoAir cornered 4.4 per cent and Paramount 2.3 per cent, the figures showed.
The highest seat factor for domestic airlines in April was bagged by Paramount, which had 88.5 per cent of its aircraft seats full on average.
No-frill carriers IndiGo and GoAir recorded a high of 72.1 and 72 per cent, JetLite 68.7, SpiceJet 68 and Jet Airways 65 per cent. Kingfisher registered a 64.2 per cent seat factor and Air India (Domestic) 59.9 per cent. Low seat factor, reflecting a low demand for air travel, has been a major cause of concern for the aviation industry worldwide, including in India.
Despite low promotional fares, the number of passengers travelling, which had grown at a high pace of 20 to 25 per cent, has slumped in the past several months ever since the slowdown hit the industry.
Domestic air travel between January and March this year had registered a negative growth of 11.69 per cent, compared to that in the same period last year.

Dengue Symptoms, Causes and Treatment.
Dengue symptoms causes and treatment.The recent death of a prominent film maker as a result of this disease has brought this ailment to center stage. People are rattled by the fact that one mosquito bite can bring down anyone, from the affluent to the poor, the young to the old and there seems to be no prevention available. Mosquito repellants cause respiratory problems to most and therefore are not relied upon. Hygiene seems to be the only cure and of course,prayers, if one believes that to be of some avail.
