HKIA sees steady cargo growth handling 430,000 tonnes in October
HONG Kong International Airport (HKIA) announced that cargo throughput in October rose by 2.3 per cent to 430,000 tonnes compared to the same month last year.
The growth in cargo throughput last month was driven mainly by 4 per cent year-on-year growth in exports, with Europe increasing "most significantly" among the key trading regions.
Over the first 10 months of 2017, HKIA registered a 9.9 per cent surge in cargo volumes to just over 4 million tonnes, compared to the same period in 2016.
On a rolling 12-month basis, HKIA saw cargo throughput climb 9.8 per cent to 4.9 million tonnes, the London's Air Cargo News reported.
