Aci Europe: airport traffic report for the 3Q and September 2022

Freight and aircraft movements -ATTACHMENT

European airport trade body ACI EUROPE released yesterday its airport traffic report for the third quarter (Q3) and September 2022.

Passenger traffic across the European airport network increased by +61% in Q3 compared to the same period last year. International passenger traffic (+84%) drove the surge as largely unrestricted cross border travel led to a boom in leisure and VFR travel over the peak summer months. Domestic passenger traffic (+14%) expanded at lower but still dynamic pace.

When compared to pre-pandemic (2019) levels, passenger traffic in Q3 stood at -12%, a significant improvement over Q2 (-17%) and Q1 (-39%).
