Frankfurt growth stifled

By Administrator |

Frankfurt Airport handled 4m passengers in November, up 1.6% against the same period last year and Fraport is blaming legal challenges for the limited growth.

Fraport says that successive legal challenges to its expansion plans have stifled growth which it is currently predicting will be no more than one per cent this year. But it was a happier picture at all six of the Fraport-run airports where passenger numbers across all of them grew by 5.5% to 5.4m travellers last month.
There was also a notable increase at Antalya Airport in Turkey where passenger numbers doubled to 235,600 after Fraport won a government agreement to distribute flights more evenly with a competing terminal that opened last year.
That has significantly benefited the duty free concessionaire Nuance that trades in the Fraport terminal.
