Monthly Passenger Traffic Performance

(In million PAX)

Passenger Traffic Overview

Total passenger traffic declined 4.2% in July compared to the same month of 2023, or 1.8% when adjusting for the discontinuation of the Natal airport. This resulted in a sequential improvement compare to the year-over-year (YoY) decline of 8.9%, or 6.7% Ex-Natal, posted in June. Domestic passenger traffic was down 13.3% YoY, or 9.4% when excluding Natal, mainly impacted by weaker performances in Argentina and, to a lesser extent, Ecuador. International traffic was up 7.6%, mainly driven by increases in Argentina, Italy and Uruguay.

In Argentina, total passenger traffic declined 5.5% YoY, driven by weaker performance in domestic traffic, which was down by 11.5% YoY, improving from the 22.3% decline posted in June. Domestic traffic, which last year benefited from incentives provided by a government program called 'Previaje' to boost domestic tourism, continued to be impacted by the prevailing recession in the country. However, some tourist destinations, such as Bariloche, Iguazú and Mendoza, performed well in July. International passenger traffic continued to perform well, increasing by 14.4% YoY. During July, JetSmart inaugurated a new route from Ezeiza to Curitiba, Aerolineas Argentinas inaugurated the route Cordoba to Rio de Janeiro (GIG), and GOL increased the frequency of its route from Ezeiza to Bogota.

In Italy, passenger traffic grew by 5.5% compared to the same month in 2023. International passenger traffic, which accounted for over 80% of the total traffic, increased by 5.8% YoY, with strong performances at both Pisa and Florence airports. Domestic passenger traffic increased by 4.3% YoY, driven by a 6.2% increase at Pisa airport which was partially offset by a slight decline of 0.4% at Florence airport.

In Brazil, total passenger traffic decreased by 9.6% YoY, or increased by 3.3% YoY when adjusting for the discontinuation of Natal Airport. These results reflect an improvement in traffic trends despite the still challenging aviation context and aircraft constraints in the country, along with the positive impact of the temporary closure of Porto Alegre airport. Domestic traffic, which accounted for almost 60% of the total traffic, was down 22.5% YoY, or 5.4% when excluding Natal, while transit passengers were up 14.3% YoY. As a reminder, following the friendly termination process concluded in February 2024, CAAP no longer operates Natal Airport, effective February 19, 2024. Therefore, statistics for Natal are available up to February 18, 2024.

In Uruguay, total passenger traffic, predominantly international, continued its recovery and increased by a strong 15.1% YoY. JetSMART Airlines inaugurated a new route between Montevideo and Buenos Aires with two daily frequencies, which started operating on May 29, positively impacting July traffic.

In Ecuador, passenger traffic decreased by 5.1% YoY as the slight increase in international traffic was more than offset by weak performance in domestic traffic. International passenger traffic increased by 0.8% YoY, while domestic traffic decreased by 10.4% YoY, mainly driven by the exit of the local airline Equair and high airfare prices.

In Armenia, passenger traffic decreased by 2.2% YoY, following a strong recovery experienced in 2023, which benefited from the introduction of new airlines and routes, along with a higher number of flight frequencies. The introduction of new routes continued into 2024.

Cargo Volume and Aircraft Movements

Cargo volume decreased by 1.5% compared to the same month in 2023, with negative YoY contributions from Argentina (-2.1%), Uruguay (-11.9%), Armenia (-7.7%) and, to a lesser extent, Brazil (-0.5%), which were partially offset by positive YoY variances in Ecuador (+12.9%) and Italy (+4.0%). Argentina, Brazil, and Ecuador accounted for 80% of the total volume in July.

Aircraft movements decreased by 3.9% YoY, with negative YoY contributions from Armenia (-11.3%), Brazil (-7.8%) and Argentina (-4.3%), which were partially offset by positive YoY variances in Uruguay (+3.7%), Ecuador (+3.1%) and Italy (+0.8%). Argentina, Brazil, and Italy accounted for more than 80% of total aircraft movements in July.
