MILAN BERGAMO AIRPORT ONCE AGAIN EXCEEDS 13 MILLION PASSENGERS ANNUALLY

Today, Wednesday 28 December 2022, Milan Bergamo Airport exceeded 13 million passengers for this year. It is a milestone that has been passed three years after the first time and marks the second highest number in terms of annual passenger traffic in the history of the airport, behind the 2019 record of 13,850,000. With the daily average for December, 2022 is drawing to an end with an overall total equal to 95% of passenger traffic generated before the pandemic.
The year has seen constant recovery since March, which consolidated over the summer period and resulted in the positive outcome seen for the final quarter of the year. This recovery has been made possible in terms of organisation of services by the decision taken by SACBO to continue with the program for the adaptation of the airport infrastructure over the 2020-2021 period with the completion of the expansion works to the west of the terminal, and the operative move made at the beginning of the year to increase the number of staff in the company’s operative structure after having maintained staffing levels through social security provisions during the health emergency.
The recovery was also thanks to the 19 airlines already operating to and from the airport together with the 7 that began over the course of the year, bringing the total number to 26, for 140 destinations in 40 countries.
