Domestic demand grows 39% in May

São Paulo, June 28, 2011 – (BM&FBOVESPA: TAMM4, NYSE: TAM). Brazilian National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC) disclosed today the operational data for the month of May 2011.

Domestic market

In the domestic market, which includes Pantanal’s data, we achieved a demand growth (in RPK) of 39,3%, combined with an increase of 17.6% in the supply (in ASKs), compared with May 2010, which led to an increase in the load factor of 10.5 p.p. to 67.6%. Our market share in the domestic market was 44.4%.

May´s performance confirms the success of our strategy through our retail project, to promote air travel to emerging classes, raising the volume of passengers in off-peak hours.

The domestic yield showed a slight decrease compared with the previous month.

International market

In the international market, compared to the same month last year, we saw a rise of 20.5% in demand with a 14.7% increase in supply resulting in an increase of 4.0 p.p. in load factor reaching 82.1%. Our market share among Brazilian carriers in May was 89.6%.

The international market remains strong, even in May that is one of the weakest months of the year, mainly driven by the real appreciation. In addition, we observed high demand for additional frequencies starting from the Galeão Airport in Rio de Janeiro to New York and Frankfurt, initiated during the month of May.

Our international yield in dollars showed an increase compared to April 2011, maximizing RASK (revenue per available seat kilometers).
