Hong Kong International Airport's passenger throughput exceeded four million in November, up 10% on the same month last year, the Airport Authority says.

 

Airport Authority Chief Executive Officer Stanley Hui said today November saw robust visitor traffic, particularly from the Mainland, North America and Europe.

 

"At our current growth rate annual passenger volume will soon reach 50 million. Hong Kong International Airport is ready to meet this demand and committed to delivering top-quality services and facilities."

 

Cargo throughput grew 6.2% to 364,000 tonnes, driven by strong exports to Southeast Asia and Europe, and transhipments to and from Southeast Asia and the Mainland.

 

Air traffic movements rose 6.1% to 25,210.

 

For the 12 months ending November 30 passenger throughput was 47.4 million, cargo volume 3.72 million tonnes with 294,180 air traffic movements, representing year-on-year growth of 7.5%, 4.3% and 5.2%.
