Air Traffic Statistics for Hong Kong, October 2020

In my effort to catch up, it is now time for the October numbers to be shared as well. I do expect that those as well are severely down from last year, but I also believe there will be a slight increase from September again.

• The passenger numbers were down 98.5% from 5.367.000 a year ago to 79.000 this year. This is down 21.000 from September
• The tonnage of cargo loaded and unloaded is down 5.7% from 428.000 to 404.000. Compared to September it is up 16.000 tonnes.
• The number of flights arriving and departing was down 68.3% from 34.339 to 10.880. This is an increase of 345 from the month before, so a slight increase for the 3rs straight month.

Overall no surprises again, traffic numbers are slightly increasing from previous months, but nothing that really makes any difference. It has felt busier at work in November and December than the months before, so I think those numbers will be more up, but I will get back to that when those numbers are released as well.
