5% April passenger growth for LJLA
LIVERPOOL John Lennon Airport
experienced a growth in passenger numbers of over 5% in April 2015; the 3rd
consecutive year on year monthly increase in passenger throughput.
Passenger figures for the 1st four months of 2015 are now over 4% higher than
for the same period in 2014 and reflect the recent upsurge in business at the
Airport.
April's figures follow on from a 3.5% increase in February and an 8% increase in
March, compared to the same months in 2014.
The growth in passenger numbers follows the recent introduction of a number of
new services, including Blue Air's flights to Bucharest and Bacua in Romania,
Flybe's Belfast City flights, easyJet's Zante flight and Wizz Air's flight to
the Latvian capital Riga. The volumes of passengers on existing services have
increased too, with airlines reporting higher numbers of passengers on many of
their routes from Liverpool compared to the same time last year (2014).
