8 million Euro fleet upgrade planned

Adria plans to invest as much as 8 million Euros in its fleet in 2009. It is currently adding two 90 seat Bombardier Canadair Regional Jets 900 to its fleet, thereby expanding it to 14 aircraft. Adria's passenger numbers have been rising dramatically in recent years. In 2008, the airline carried nearly 1.3 million passengers, 15% more than in 2007. However, the carrier has forecast a stagnation in passenger numbers for this year due to the economic slowdown. Adria says it has finished 2008 with an operating profit of 1.9 million Euros, a drop of 62% compared to the year before. It blamed the fall in profit on the high fuel prices.
