Ostend-Bruges Airport records strong passenger figures in the second quarter of 2022. In April, May and June, 103,377 passengers travelled via Oostende. "That is an increase of 271% compared to the same period last year. When we look at 2019, we again reach 80% of the passenger numbers before corona. This is mainly due to the changed offer: some destinations in Tunisia, Turkey, Bulgaria and Egypt are not operated this year," says CEO Eric Dumas.
Since the start of this year, passenger numbers have been increasing month after month. "Travellers clearly feel like travelling again. In July and August, we expect more than 40,000 passengers every month", says CEO Eric Dumas. In total, the airport welcomed 156,493 passengers during the first half of the year. That is 380% more than in 2021 and 18.7% less than in the record year of 2019.
