Hong Kong airport tops record, moves 433,000 tons in March
HONG KONG International Airport (HKIA) achieved a record year-on-year increase of 17.8 per cent in cargo volumes in March at 433,000 tonnes.
"The strong growth in cargo throughput was largely driven by exports, which recorded a robust 24 per cent year-on-year increase," said an HKIA statement.
"Imports and transshipments also experienced double-digit growth. Among the key trading regions, Europe and North America showed the most significant increases," it said.
During the first three months of 2017, cargo volume at HKIA registered growth of 11.5 per cent year-on-year at 1.1 million tonnes.
