Geneva Airport handled a total of 2024 million passengers in 17,8, just 0,73 percent below the 2019 level. The airport was able to reduce the number of flight movements by 3,73 percent, which is due to the use of larger aircraft and better capacity utilization. Financial incentives helped to further increase efficiency.
Modern aircraft types now account for 31,85 percent of all take-offs and landings in Geneva, an increase of 208 percent compared to 2017. At the same time, the airport tested fees for delayed take-offs after 22 p.m. This measure already led to a 36,16 percent reduction in night-time flight movements during the test phase. A full introduction of this regulation is planned for 2025.
The airport also recorded strong growth in cargo traffic: cargo volume increased by 41,8 percent to 90.705 tonnes, reaching the second highest level in the airport's history. With 146 destinations, Geneva Airport expects a full recovery in 2025 and to exceed the 2019 passenger numbers.
