Please find below our passenger traffic data for the period 1 March, 2020 – 2 May, 2021 (Weeks 10 of 2020 to Week 18 of 2021). This is based on data received from members accounting for 78% of total European passenger traffic.
April did not see any improvement in passenger traffic performance compared to Q1:
- Across the European airport network, passenger traffic stood at -83% (vs. pre-crisis volumes: April 2019) - compared with -82% in Q1 2021.
- EU/EEA/Swiss/UK airports continued to underperform at -88% - compared with -89% in Q1 2021.
- Other airports (non-EU/EEA/Swiss/UK) did better at -58% - compared to -55% in Q1. While these airports had been on an improving trend since December, passenger traffic is declining again due to the new covid-19 wave affecting Turkey.
