As the demand for travel increased after the Corona 19 pandemic (pandemic), the number of air users worldwide reached 7 billion last year.
On the 6th (local time), Flight Global, a media specializing in aviation, quoted data released the day before by the Airports Council International (ACI) and reported that the number of global travelers last year recovered to 73.8% of the 2019 level before Corona 19.
Last year, the number of global flight users showed a marked recovery, with an increase of 53.5% compared to 2021.
According to ACI data, Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta, Georgia, USA had the largest number of passengers among airports in the world, with 93,699 passengers.
Five of the top 10 airports with the most passengers in terms of passengers were US airports. It is interpreted that the recovery of air travel, along with the strong domestic market in the US, played a role.
Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (73,363 passengers) ranked second, Denver International Airport (69,286 passengers), Chicago O’Hare International Airport (68,341 passengers), and Dubai International (UAE) ranked 5th. It was followed by airports (66,070).
It was followed by Los Angeles (LA) International Airport, Turkey Istanbul International Airport, London Heathrow International Airport, India Delhi Indiraganda International Airport and Paris Charles de Gaulle International Airport.
ACI said, “U.S. hubs have been able to recover quickly thanks to strong domestic markets. We are now seeing global hubs like Dubai, Istanbul and London joining the top ranks.”
“The latest indicators are an important milestone showing that the international aviation market has reached pre-pandemic levels,” ACI said. .
