Traffic statistics

Finavia regularly publishes figures for passengers, landings and freight and mail volumes. Information on flights is obtained from Air Traffic Control whilst information relating to passenger, cargo and postal volumes for specific airlines is obtained from the forwarding companies at the airports.

A traffic database was set up in 1997 as a basis for traffic statistics. Previously statistics had been based on the figures from each individual airport and its statistical procedures.

Basic statistics are published monthly. These figures cover the passenger, operational and freight volumes. The statistics are presented for the latest complete month and cumulatively from the beginning of the year. Changes as percentages are also presented besides the actual volumes achieved.

Traffic statistics are presented in excel form. When using this data, please mention source of the information: Finavia Corp.
