Civil International Air Traffic Statistics at HKIA February 2021

I know I have fallen way behind on the statistics update, so I will be spamming them out over the next week or two.

  • Passenger numbers were down 97.5% from the year before, from 1.882.000 to 47.000
  • Cargo was up 23.3 % from 252.000 tonnes to 310.000
  • Passenger flights were down 74,3% from 14.124 to 3.635
  • Total flight movements were down 52% from 18.031 to 8.475.

February 2020 was the first month that we saw a reduction of flights with the outbreak of Covid-19, so this is where it start getting interesting to see how the numbers compare year-by-year. Of course the reductions in the beginning of the pandemic was not as severe as they were later on, but it still show how a drastic decrease it was over the next several months.

March numbers will be posted soon(ish).
