Changi Airport sees 3.4M passengers sent off in February

Changi Airport saw 3.4 million passengers pass through in February. This is a 9.1 per cent increase from the same period last year and is attributed to the long Lunar New Year weekend. This puts the total passenger movement for the first two months of the year at 7.2 million.

 

The number of flights also rose by 12.2 per cent year-on-year in February to 22,000. Some 28 per cent, or 6,200, of the flights were by low cost carriers.

Cargo handling volume declined 1.9 per cent due to the Lunar New Year Holiday to 128,048 tonnes. In total, Changi Airport handled 275,272 tonnes of cargo in the first two months of the year, up 1.3 per cent compared to 2010.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
