Málaga Airport Shows Another Increase in Passenger Numbers

The Spanish Airport Authorities, AENA, have released their latest round of figures which show that yet again passenger numbers are up for Málaga International Airport. 13.5 million visitors used the airport in 2007, that’s 3.9% up on 2006, and of those 2.5 million were from the UK, 0.3% up on the previous year.

The greatest increase in numbers was courtesy of three European nations namely Germany, France and Ireland. They recorded growth of 5.7%, 15.6% and 6.8% respectively. Domestic passengers from other Spanish AENA airports also jumped by 4.05%.

It wasn’t all growth though, it seems that one nation has spurned Spain and that’s Switzerland. Swiss arrivals were down 7.6% on 2006.
