Delta Air says August air traffic very strong

TOKYO, Sept 2 | Thu Sep 2, 2010 12:29am EDT

TOKYO, Sept 2 (Reuters) - Traffic on Delta Air Lines Inc (DAL.N) flights in August was very strong, partly because a firm yen boosted travel in Asia, its president said on Thursday.

Delta President Edward Bastian also said at a briefing in Tokyo that the strong yen was helping improve financial results of the world's biggest airline.

In July Delta's system traffic rose 0.5 percent. (Reporting by Mariko Katsumura, editing by Tim Kelly; Editing by Michael Watson)
