NETHERLANDS. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol set a new annual record for passenger traffic in 2015, with the figure hitting 58.2 million, a leap of +6% year-on-year.
Schiphol Group’s regional airports also grew: Eindhoven Airport served 4.3 million passengers, up +10.0% on 2014, while Rotterdam The Hague Airport welcomed 1.7 million passengers, up +0.3% on 2014.
Across the group, the number of air transport movements also increased in 2015. At 322, in 2015 the number of destinations remained virtually the same as the 2014 figure.
Schiphol Group President & CEO Jos Nijhuis said: ‘We have witnessed growth at all our airports again in 2015. In 2016, the year of our centenary, we expect to welcome 60 million travellers at Schiphol.
“This year will also see the finalisation of renovations in the terminal, allowing us once again to offer travellers the level of experience they may expect from “˜Europe’s Preferred Airport’.
“In view of the sustained growth and international competition we will continue to make substantial investments in capacity and accessibility – also at our regional airports. Those investments will enable us to remain the preferred airport for travellers, airlines and logistics services providers.”
