IAG: "Group premium traffic for the month of June grew by 5.3% compared to the previous year, with 9.6% growth in non-premium traffic. Underlying market conditions remain unchanged from last month. As we had indicated earlier in the year there is likely to be some near-term softness in premium traffic due to the Olympic Games." Source: Company statement, 04-Jul-2012.
