Cargo traffic: Airports in India report excellent growth

The Airports Council International (ACI), has announced that cargo traffic in February 2007 increased by four per cent compared to the same month in 2006. International freight went-up five per cent and domestic cargo rose by three per cent.
According to ACI, airports in India reported excellent growth, as did several Chinese hubs. Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Muscat were top performers in the Middle East. In the European region Barcelona, Liege, Munich, Milan, and Moscow had double-digit increases. North American airports reported a four per cent increase, while the Latin America and Caribbean results appear very low.
“The overall results for February are excellent, excepting a few hubs impacted by local factors. This is great news for the industry and reinforces our message that all industry partners must work urgently and efficiently with governments to ensure that capacity is sufficient to serve steadily growing numbers in a safe, secure and environmentally compatible manner,” commented Robert J Aaronson, ACI’s director general.
