The Bottom Line: "Bidvest Travel and Aviation put in a very pleasing performance. Revenue rose 6,5% to R1,1 billion (2011: R1billion). Trading profit moved 27,1% higher to R186,7 million (2011: R146,8 million). Travel businesses generally exceeded expectation, despite margin pressure and tough trading conditions. Budget Car and Van Rental grew market share and rental days, but rental duration and fleet utilisation fell. Bidair performed ahead of expectation. Revenue at Bidair Services was impacted by the loss of a significant airline contract. Double-digit growth in passenger numbers was achieved at Bidvest Lounges. Bidair Cargo performed well, growing domestic and cross-border volumes." Extract from Bidvest interim results to 31 December 2012
