Nanterre, 17 January 2022
VINCI network airports welcomed almost 32 million passengers in the fourth quarter of 2021, down 46% compared to the same period in 2019 but more than double the figures in the fourth quarter of 2020. Over full-year 2021, some 86 million passengers were welcomed, 66% down on 2019 but up 12% compared to 2020.
After very encouraging results in October and November (down 48% and 44% respectively), the end of the year was marked by a resurgence of the pandemic in some countries due to emergence of the Omicron variant. However, unlike the situation at end 2020, governments did not impose such strong travel limitation measures, preferring to rely on screening and high vaccination rates in most countries. The recovery of passenger traffic therefore continued in the fourth quarter of 2021 in most of the network's airports. A more detailed analysis shows that in the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica, traffic continues to remain close to the levels recorded in 2019, while in Portugal, the United Kingdom, Serbia and Chile, the number of passengers served was from two to four times higher than in the fourth quarter of 2020. In addition, Cambodia and Chile reopened to international travellers this last quarter, after months of closed borders. Illustrating this positive trend, the average load factor of aircraft operating on the VINCI Airports network rose to over 70% in October and November for the first time since the start of the crisis.
In the paragraphs below, unless otherwise indicated, variations refer to traffic levels in 2021 compared to the same period in 2019.
