British Airways’ parent IAG is warning that its premium traffic will be impacted by the London 2012 Olympics.
Releasing its June figures, it said it expects to see some "near-term softness" in first and business class sales during the Games.
International Airlines Group, formed by the merger of British Airways and Iberia, reported a strong June but BA performed better than sister airline Iberia.
BA’s June traffic was up 11.3% compared to a 3.2% rise at Iberia.
Overall revenue passenger kilometres rose by 8.9% over June 2011, while passenger load factor was up 1.2 percentage points to 76.1%.
First and business-class travel rose 5.3%, while non-premium traffic was up 9.6%.
