January traffic stood at 89% of pre-Covid volumes (January 2019), up a further 3% from 86% in December 2022. "This is the best monthly performance and closest to a full recovery since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic," said ACI Europe.
Year-on-year, January passenger traffic across Europe’s airport network rebounded 69%, free from the constraints of Omicron-related travel restrictions. This rebound, though, was driven by international travel demand rather than domestic demand; international passenger traffic is up 85% year-on-year, with domestic lagging behind at +35%.
