Changi's passenger movements up 5.2% in January

All regions saw growth in passenger movements for the month.

Changi Airport’s passenger movements edged up 5.2% in January 2020, totalling 5.95 million passenger movements compared to the same period last year, a press release revealed.

Aircraft movements rose by 2.2% to 33,400 landings and take-offs, whilst airfreight throughput declined 8.4% to 157,000 tonnes for the month.

All regions saw growth in passenger movements for January. This was contributed by the increased travel around the Lunar New Year on 25 January in 2020, compared to 5 February in 2019.

For the first two weeks of February, total passenger movements dropped by more than 25%, whilst traffic between Singapore and China plunged by more than 85% YoY.

As of 14 February, there were about 40 weekly services to less than 10 cities in mainland China, a decrease of 90% from around 400 weekly services linking Singapore to 36 Chinese destinations previously.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
