Passenger and cargo traffic results for H1 2022

At June 30, 2022, the Tuscan Airport System handled over 2.8 million passengers, with nearly a 600% increase compared to the same period of 2021 and a 25.9% decline compared to the same pre-Covid period of 2019. Thanks to the easing of restrictions on passenger mobility in the EU- and non-EU countries, in the first half of 2022 passenger traffic gradually closed the gap with the 2019 pre-Covid period. In detail, the gap gradually shrank in January (-58.4%), February (-41.8%), March (-31.7%), April (-21.9%), May (-14.8%) to then reach -10.3% in June. In addition, in an airport system characterized by a strong prevalence of incoming international tourism, this result was driven by a more robust growth in the international traffic (+956.6%) than in the national traffic (+255.6%). Total

flights rose sharply (+234.5%), as did the load factor of scheduled traffic, which stood at 76.9% (+17.9 percentage points compared to June 30, 2021).

With 7,593 tons of carried goods and mail in the first six months of 2022, the Tuscan Airport cargo traffic grew by +6.5% compared to 2021 and by +16.9% on the 2019 pre-

Covid period.

An uptrend was also reported in terms of total flights (+201%) and the load factor of scheduled traffic, which stood at 77.3% (+14.2pps). As a result of the easing of mobility restrictions in several foreign countries, international passenger traffic grew more (+1,073% compared to 2021) than the national component (+265.5%). Among top destinations, Italy ranked first (35.7% of total traffic), followed by the United Kingdom (16%) and Spain (10.7%).

With 7,512 tons of carried goods and mail, cargo traffic increased compared to both the same period of 2021 (+6.4%) and of 2019 (+17.8%).

The sharp increase was driven by the positive performance of total flights (+288.2%) and the 75.9% load factor of scheduled traffic (+25.8pps). Growth was reported by both international (+825.3%) and national (+152.8%) passenger traffic, in a context where the international component accounts for 95% of total traffic.

It should be noted that the current gradual recovery of operations, facilitated by the progress of the vaccination campaign, is nonetheless accompanied by international tensions, as a consequence of the still ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and price increases due to the rise in the costs of energy sources (natural gas, electricity and oil).
