12:06
More than 950,000 people were handled at Chopin Airport in October. Compared to October 2014 it is a 4 percent increase. It’s also the thirteenth consecutive record month of Warsaw airport.
The number of passenger flight operations, including the operations of traditional and low-cost carriers, fell in this period by 3 percent and amounted to 10,500.
"Once again we were able to beat the record for the number of passengers handled with significantly reduced flight operations. This shows that airplanes are flying less often, but are almost fully booked. This is very good news for airlines, which also achieve very good results at our airport," explained Radosław Paruzel, deputy director of Chopin Airport.
Since the beginning of 2015, 9.7 million people were handled at Warsaw airport, which means a 6.3 percent increase compared to ten months of last year. As many as 8.7 million passengers (an increase of 7.5 per cent.) travelled internationally and domestically there were 999,000 passengers (a decrease of 3.6 percent).
