FRANKFURT, Germany,
February 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
In January 2013, Fraport AG served
nearly 3.9 million passengers at its Frankfurt Airport (FRA) home
base - down 4.9 percent year-on-year. This decline was due
primarily to the reduction in flight offers implemented by many
airlines for the Winter 2012/13 Timetable. Furthermore,
weather-related flight cancellations - above all, freezing rain and
sleet in mid-January - affected the passenger volume. Excluding
this weather effect, the monthly result would have been at least
two percentage points better.
Handling about 150,000 metric tons in January 2013, FRA recorded continuing light
growth in cargo (airfreight + airmail) - up 1.3 percent
year-on-year. Aircraft movements dropped by 6.8 percent to nearly
35,100 takeoffs and landings in January
2013.
Fraport's majority-owned airports - Frankfurt Airport (FRA),
Antalya (AYT), Burgas (BOJ), Varna
(VAR) and Lima (LIM) - together
welcomed about 5.7 million passengers in January 2013, down 1.5 percent year-on-year.
Peru's LIM continued to record dynamic growth, with almost
1.2 million passengers received in the reporting month. Well
over half a million passengers used AYT on the Turkish Riviera,
while the Bulgarian airports of BOJ and VAR on the Black Sea coast
together served about 28,500 passengers.
