Fraport Traffic Figures – May 2023: Passenger Volumes Growing Steadily
The cargo volume continued to decline in the month under review, reflecting an overall economic cooling. With 155,963 metric tons, FRA’s cargo throughput (comprising airfreight and airmail) was 10.2 percent below the level of May 2022. The number of aircraft movements edged up by 1.9 percent to a total of 37,278 takeoffs and landings, while accumulated maximum takeoff weights (MTOWs) grew by 5.1 percent to about 2.3 million metric tons (in both cases, compared to May 2022).
