European Airports wait for good days
Research done by the ACI showed that there was very little increase in the volume of freights in European airports. In august compared to other years there was only a meagre 0.4 per cent increase and the Istanbul and Amsterdam consisted of the five hubs showing growth within the month.
Some airports are showing no increase while others are also decreasing in freight volumes.
The biggest airport for cargo in Europe is Frankfurt. This particular airport had a 4.7 per cent decrease with the latest checked volume being 162,904 tons. The second biggest airport is the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris which now reports 146, 000 tons after a 2.9 per cent drop.Other airports such as Heathrow also reported a decrease although somewhat less worrying at only 0.2 per cent.

Airports that reported increased volumes were Schiphol by 0.7 per cent in the August month to 137,638 tons and Ataturk which stated an impressive growth of 16.4 per cent now at 66,229 tons. Although the other airports hold more volume the only significant increase between these airports occurred with Ataturk.
A spokesperson for the ACI,Olivier Jankovec does believe this is a cause for concern however remained positive that the excessive supply of oil will keep costs low.He also stated that regarding the whole issue of slow economic recovery and the contagion risk due to the slowdown he still believes the main issue for air traffic will always be the oil costs.
