Airport International Group (AIG) recently announced positive growth for Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA) in April 2014. The statistics were for passenger traffic (PAX) and aircraft movement (ACM) for the same period.
During the month of April 2014, passenger traffic surged by 17.7% while ACM increased by 11.1% compared to last year, registering at 631,479 PAX and 6,111 ACM respectively. Since the beginning of 2014 and up until April, year-to-date (YTD) PAX figures rose by 13.6% and ACM figures were up by 8.1% as opposed to the same period during 2013, coming in at 2,282,894 PAX and 23,153 ACM.
AIG CEO Kjeld Binger said: “QAIA’s latest PAX and ACM growth was largely driven by an increase in flights to Saudi Arabia for Umrah, business and leisure trips to key destinations such as Egypt and UK which also includes vacationers. With our peak summer season just around the corner, we expect these numbers to continue to rise.”
