ACI World at ICAO

Advocate Communicate Initiate by Georgina Graham Director ICAO Bureau

Happy New Year ndash a little late you might think so I should clarify ndash Happy Chinese New Year ndash the Year of the Metal Tiger According to lore those born in the year of the Tiger are amongst other things labelled as calm but also as rebellious fearsome but also affectionate Indeed according to writer Richard Giles the Metal Tiger ldquorepresent[s] the kind of forces necessary to succeed with very difficult tasks The impossible just might be possible during this challenging yearrdquo

The dichotomy that is represented by the description above is also apparent in the task ahead of us at the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) this year A year when key issues this industry faces will be played out upon the world stage and both our regulators and airports airlines and other key industry partners will be judged according to their outcome Think Environment Security and of course Safety Already in 200 we have witnessed either incidents or consequences of incidents that have occurred in these fields ndash the continuing post COP5 discussions the escalating response to the 225 security incident and of course the tragic loss of life faced after the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 409 disaster

National governments are usually seen to be at the forefront of responses to these types of events however before we even reach that stage ICAO the body tasked with setting standards and recommended practices to ensure the safe orderly and economically sound operations of the air transport industry has debated and discussed and cast its expert view upon the issues that our industry has faced or is facing Testament to these ongoing deliberations are the constantly updated Annexes to the Chicago Convention the production of Guidance Material and other instruments to provide States with the regulations they require to effectively oversee air transport within their territory As an example the ICAO Council in its forthcoming session will discuss issues as diverse as the ICAO Comprehensive Aviation Security Strategy to the status of compliance of States with the Machine Readable Passport deadline

Why will ICAOrsquos year ahead this year of the Metal Tiger be a challenging one Expectations are high from the 90 Contracting States that ICAO will continue to take up the mantle and adhere to its mandate under the Chicago Convention as stated above Yet it must achieve this mammoth task with a zero nominal growth budget in a challenging economic climate and balancing the need for efficiency with the safety of the travelling public with more passengers flying than ever before It is imperative that we play our part in ensuring that ICAOrsquos goals are

met and our own challenge is to do this whilst ensuring that our membersrsquo needs are well represented amongst those of our industry partners such as airlines and air navigation service providers

The CAEP8 meeting agreed a new aircraft engine NOx stringency standard

The ICAO Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection - CAEP8 standard for Medium and Large engines (generally for aircraft over 00 seats) will be 5 lower than the old CAEP6 standard For Small engine families (generally for aircraft like regional jets under 00 seats) the reduction is 5 The implementation date will be December 20 and one agreed caveat was that any engine production cut-off would not be implemented before 208

ACI had supported a slightly higher new NOx standard (5 reduction) for smaller aircraft but an identical standard large aircraft This was supported by European States The US supported what became the final outcome Some other States supported slightly less stringent standards ACI and its members can be satisfied with the outcome

The aircraft and engine manufacturers (ICCAIA) and IATA supported a lesser standard for the very largest engines and have noted that it will be very difficult to modify some of the largest in-production engines to achieve this new standard by 20 All recently certified and soon-to-be certified aircraft engine will comfortably comply with the standard

Next week Future Work will be considered including CO2 and Particulate Matter certification and possibly a new noise stringency standard on the work programme

Airportrsquos View of New NOx Stringency Standard - Presented by ACI

Working Paper on Environmental and Economic Assessment of the NOx Stringency Scenarios - Presented by Rapporteurs of MODTF and FESG

We are now half way through the CAEP (Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection) which as reported below has discussed issues such as noise and NOx stringency In the coming month we will finalise our preparations for the Next Generation of Aviation Professionals Symposium the Aviation Security Panel meeting as well as the High Level Meeting on Safety Look out in forthcoming issues for information on the importance of these meetings and how their outcomes may impact you in your daily operations and the day to day running of your airport So it seems that we will need to assume in 200 the traits of the Metal Tiger ndash fiercely defending and protecting our industry yet simultaneously - as we prepare for the 200 ICAO Assembly the outcome of which will set the agenda for the next three years 20-0 ndash consider and implement new and effective ways to ensure a viable and safe air transport industry

ACI World at work with PartnersACI World formalises a new Plan of Collaboration with WHO

ACI World has agreed a new -year Plan of Collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) which formalizes its working relations with the UN body

This Plan of Collaboration supports the WHO Strategic Objective of strengthening public health security in travel and transport Specifically ACI will be working with the WHO to build the core capacities at airports that are required in the International Health Regulations (IHR) 2005 This will focus on developing best practice guidelines in three areas

bull vector control management (eg controlling rodent and insect populations in and around airports to prevent the spread of disease)

bull pandemic preparedness andbull contingency planning for other public health risks

Action required of airportsAs part of this work the WHO has commissioned a survey to review the response to the Influenza A(HN) outbreak Specifically it focuses on the actions taken at airports ports and border crossings during the period April- July 2009

The survey response period has been extended to 5 February 200 Please check with the responsible person to see if the survey has been completed for your airport If it has not then we urge you to complete the survey now The survey is completed anonymously and the results will be reported in aggregate form thus ensuring complete confidentiality

The survey can be completed and submitted online HERE [httpwwwaciaeroaciacidownloadsWHO_SURVEY_AIRPORTSpdf]

Alternatively it can be completed manually and emailed to PAGsurveyswhoint

The Plan of Collaboration with WHO dovetails well with ACIrsquos pandemic preparedness work with ICAO The ACI World Annual General Assembly passed a resolution in Kuala Lumpur urging governments and the industry to enhance their preparedness and capacity to deal with out breaks of communicable disease It also urged national authorities and the industry to actively support the ICAO Cooperative Arrangement for Preventing the Spread of Communicable Disease through Air Travel (CAPSCA) initiative in their region This initiative brings together experts from various organizations (in government public health and the aviation sector) from the countries in the region that are responsible for planning and implementing the response to outbreaks of communicable disease

Craig Bradbrook (Director Security amp Facilitation ACI World) commented ldquoThe Resolution passed at the General Assembly shows how important airports and ACI view this work As we have seen in the past seven years with SARS Avian influenza and then A(HN) public health emergencies have the potential to disrupt air travel and airport operations Such out breaks come without prior warning and can escalate into a crisis very quickly Governments and the industry need to ensure that we are adequately prepared for the next outbreakrdquo

PaxFlash and FreightFlashTraffic - December 2009

Strong traffic growth in December 2009Global passenger traffic up by 5 freight up 23

In December 2009 the ACI PaxFlash and FreightFlash traffic reports show a surge in traffic worldwide Global airport passenger traffic rose by 5 percent relative to December 2008 (Table ) Both international passenger traffic (up by 56 ) and domestic traffic (up by 52 ) were boosted by strong performance across Asia Pacific (+57 international +4 domestic) All regions saw increases except for North America which remained flat ( see Table 2 in the complete release)

There are clear signs of renewed passenger traffic demand at many airports worldwide in this monthrsquos results International traffic grew faster than domestic traffic at most airports in China Traffic in India both domestic and international surged in December (Delhi +2 Bangalore +7 and Mumbai +29 with Mumbai domestic traffic increasing by 9) Similarly traffic growth is on the mend in Russia driven by domestic traffic growth at the Moscow airports ranging from 2 to 40 percent

ACI World Director of Economics Andreas Schimm comments ldquoLooking at full year 2009 global traffic results were much better than expected early in the year finishing at just 26 percent below 2008 Fears that third quarter traffic would decline substantially did not materialize and the stabilization seen provided a platform for remarkable fourth quarter growth Even taking into account falling global traffic demand in late 2008 and the impact on Asia Pacific results in 2008 of the closure of the Bangkok airport due to a political siege which slightly inflate the percentage growth comparison passenger and freight results are very promising rdquo

Overall global figures were boosted by strong domestic traffic in China India and Brazil where volumes surged in the second half of 2009 For the full year traffic results highlight a split between the two largest aviation markets (North America and Europe) each of which lost more than 5 percent traffic in 2009 and the continued

8

expansion of Asia Pacific Latin America-Caribbean and Middle East markets Top performance results in the international category were seen at Dubai (+96) Kuala Lumpur (+88) and Istanbul (+7) the only airports with more than 0 million passengers per annum to register growth in 2009 Airports in Africa suffered a moderate 5 percent setback for the year mainly caused by declines in domestic traffic whereas international shrank only marginally

Freight results show that traffic in November and December was remarkably strong balancing the severe losses sustained in the first quarter 2009 and narrowing the gap with performance in 2008 Table (in the full report) indicates the positive performance figures for almost all regions (except Latin America- Caribbean domestic traffic) with international freight out pacing domestic in December and surging ahead by 28 percent This strong result illustrates the mounting confidence in the global economic recovery and significant pent-up demand Nonetheless it is too early to consider this performance as a future indicator of a sustainable economic recovery as this rebound is of a more technical than fundamental nature For the full year freight traffic remains below 2008 performance ( -8 worldwide - 28 domestic -0 international)

Schimm added ldquoACI World and ACI Europe look forward to an excellent turn-out at their 2nd annual ACI Airport Economics and Finance Conference in London 2-24 February 200 The situation is evolving rapidly now and airport executives will have the opportunity to look at the ramifications of this market evolution what it means not only in financial terms but also in terms of airport investments and future capacityrdquo

1ACI Quarterly Traffic Bulletin Q3 2009

Quarter 3 2009 showed a marked improvement of passenger traffic and freight volumes compared previous quarters While passenger traffic was almost flat at 03 (Figure 1) freight volumes shrank by 63 Relative to the year-to-date performances these numbers clearly indicate the beginning of a recovery in the air transport sector and confirm signs of a recovery in the global economy as a whole Also passengers return faster to the market than capacity as aircraft movements comparatively showed only a minor improvement in the third quarter Quarter 3 figures are crucial as they represent the travel and holiday season traditionally the busiest months of the year in terms of passenger volumes

ACI World at ICAO

Advocate Communicate Initiate by Georgina Graham Director ICAO Bureau

Happy New Year ndash a little late you might think so I should clarify ndash Happy Chinese New Year ndash the Year of the Metal Tiger According to lore those born in the year of the Tiger are amongst other things labelled as calm but also as rebellious fearsome but also affectionate Indeed according to writer Richard Giles the Metal Tiger ldquorepresent[s] the kind of forces necessary to succeed with very difficult tasks The impossible just might be possible during this challenging yearrdquo

The dichotomy that is represented by the description above is also apparent in the task ahead of us at the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) this year A year when key issues this industry faces will be played out upon the world stage and both our regulators and airports airlines and other key industry partners will be judged according to their outcome Think Environment Security and of course Safety Already in 200 we have witnessed either incidents or consequences of incidents that have occurred in these fields ndash the continuing post COP5 discussions the escalating response to the 225 security incident and of course the tragic loss of life faced after the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 409 disaster

National governments are usually seen to be at the forefront of responses to these types of events however before we even reach that stage ICAO the body tasked with setting standards and recommended practices to ensure the safe orderly and economically sound operations of the air transport industry has debated and discussed and cast its expert view upon the issues that our industry has faced or is facing Testament to these ongoing deliberations are the constantly updated Annexes to the Chicago Convention the production of Guidance Material and other instruments to provide States with the regulations they require to effectively oversee air transport within their territory As an example the ICAO Council in its forthcoming session will discuss issues as diverse as the ICAO Comprehensive Aviation Security Strategy to the status of compliance of States with the Machine Readable Passport deadline

Why will ICAOrsquos year ahead this year of the Metal Tiger be a challenging one Expectations are high from the 90 Contracting States that ICAO will continue to take up the mantle and adhere to its mandate under the Chicago Convention as stated above Yet it must achieve this mammoth task with a zero nominal growth budget in a challenging economic climate and balancing the need for efficiency with the safety of the travelling public with more passengers flying than ever before It is imperative that we play our part in ensuring that ICAOrsquos goals are

met and our own challenge is to do this whilst ensuring that our membersrsquo needs are well represented amongst those of our industry partners such as airlines and air navigation service providers

The CAEP8 meeting agreed a new aircraft engine NOx stringency standard

The ICAO Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection - CAEP8 standard for Medium and Large engines (generally for aircraft over 00 seats) will be 5 lower than the old CAEP6 standard For Small engine families (generally for aircraft like regional jets under 00 seats) the reduction is 5 The implementation date will be December 20 and one agreed caveat was that any engine production cut-off would not be implemented before 208

ACI had supported a slightly higher new NOx standard (5 reduction) for smaller aircraft but an identical standard large aircraft This was supported by European States The US supported what became the final outcome Some other States supported slightly less stringent standards ACI and its members can be satisfied with the outcome

The aircraft and engine manufacturers (ICCAIA) and IATA supported a lesser standard for the very largest engines and have noted that it will be very difficult to modify some of the largest in-production engines to achieve this new standard by 20 All recently certified and soon-to-be certified aircraft engine will comfortably comply with the standard

Next week Future Work will be considered including CO2 and Particulate Matter certification and possibly a new noise stringency standard on the work programme

Airportrsquos View of New NOx Stringency Standard - Presented by ACI

Working Paper on Environmental and Economic Assessment of the NOx Stringency Scenarios - Presented by Rapporteurs of MODTF and FESG

We are now half way through the CAEP (Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection) which as reported below has discussed issues such as noise and NOx stringency In the coming month we will finalise our preparations for the Next Generation of Aviation Professionals Symposium the Aviation Security Panel meeting as well as the High Level Meeting on Safety Look out in forthcoming issues for information on the importance of these meetings and how their outcomes may impact you in your daily operations and the day to day running of your airport So it seems that we will need to assume in 200 the traits of the Metal Tiger ndash fiercely defending and protecting our industry yet simultaneously - as we prepare for the 200 ICAO Assembly the outcome of which will set the agenda for the next three years 20-0 ndash consider and implement new and effective ways to ensure a viable and safe air transport industry

ACI World at work with PartnersACI World formalises a new Plan of Collaboration with WHO

ACI World has agreed a new -year Plan of Collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) which formalizes its working relations with the UN body

This Plan of Collaboration supports the WHO Strategic Objective of strengthening public health security in travel and transport Specifically ACI will be working with the WHO to build the core capacities at airports that are required in the International Health Regulations (IHR) 2005 This will focus on developing best practice guidelines in three areas

bull vector control management (eg controlling rodent and insect populations in and around airports to prevent the spread of disease)

bull pandemic preparedness andbull contingency planning for other public health risks

Action required of airportsAs part of this work the WHO has commissioned a survey to review the response to the Influenza A(HN) outbreak Specifically it focuses on the actions taken at airports ports and border crossings during the period April- July 2009

The survey response period has been extended to 5 February 200 Please check with the responsible person to see if the survey has been completed for your airport If it has not then we urge you to complete the survey now The survey is completed anonymously and the results will be reported in aggregate form thus ensuring complete confidentiality

The survey can be completed and submitted online HERE [httpwwwaciaeroaciacidownloadsWHO_SURVEY_AIRPORTSpdf]

Alternatively it can be completed manually and emailed to PAGsurveyswhoint

The Plan of Collaboration with WHO dovetails well with ACIrsquos pandemic preparedness work with ICAO The ACI World Annual General Assembly passed a resolution in Kuala Lumpur urging governments and the industry to enhance their preparedness and capacity to deal with out breaks of communicable disease It also urged national authorities and the industry to actively support the ICAO Cooperative Arrangement for Preventing the Spread of Communicable Disease through Air Travel (CAPSCA) initiative in their region This initiative brings together experts from various organizations (in government public health and the aviation sector) from the countries in the region that are responsible for planning and implementing the response to outbreaks of communicable disease

Craig Bradbrook (Director Security amp Facilitation ACI World) commented ldquoThe Resolution passed at the General Assembly shows how important airports and ACI view this work As we have seen in the past seven years with SARS Avian influenza and then A(HN) public health emergencies have the potential to disrupt air travel and airport operations Such out breaks come without prior warning and can escalate into a crisis very quickly Governments and the industry need to ensure that we are adequately prepared for the next outbreakrdquo

PaxFlash and FreightFlashTraffic - December 2009

Strong traffic growth in December 2009Global passenger traffic up by 5 freight up 23

In December 2009 the ACI PaxFlash and FreightFlash traffic reports show a surge in traffic worldwide Global airport passenger traffic rose by 5 percent relative to December 2008 (Table ) Both international passenger traffic (up by 56 ) and domestic traffic (up by 52 ) were boosted by strong performance across Asia Pacific (+57 international +4 domestic) All regions saw increases except for North America which remained flat ( see Table 2 in the complete release)

There are clear signs of renewed passenger traffic demand at many airports worldwide in this monthrsquos results International traffic grew faster than domestic traffic at most airports in China Traffic in India both domestic and international surged in December (Delhi +2 Bangalore +7 and Mumbai +29 with Mumbai domestic traffic increasing by 9) Similarly traffic growth is on the mend in Russia driven by domestic traffic growth at the Moscow airports ranging from 2 to 40 percent

ACI World Director of Economics Andreas Schimm comments ldquoLooking at full year 2009 global traffic results were much better than expected early in the year finishing at just 26 percent below 2008 Fears that third quarter traffic would decline substantially did not materialize and the stabilization seen provided a platform for remarkable fourth quarter growth Even taking into account falling global traffic demand in late 2008 and the impact on Asia Pacific results in 2008 of the closure of the Bangkok airport due to a political siege which slightly inflate the percentage growth comparison passenger and freight results are very promising rdquo

Overall global figures were boosted by strong domestic traffic in China India and Brazil where volumes surged in the second half of 2009 For the full year traffic results highlight a split between the two largest aviation markets (North America and Europe) each of which lost more than 5 percent traffic in 2009 and the continued

8

expansion of Asia Pacific Latin America-Caribbean and Middle East markets Top performance results in the international category were seen at Dubai (+96) Kuala Lumpur (+88) and Istanbul (+7) the only airports with more than 0 million passengers per annum to register growth in 2009 Airports in Africa suffered a moderate 5 percent setback for the year mainly caused by declines in domestic traffic whereas international shrank only marginally

Freight results show that traffic in November and December was remarkably strong balancing the severe losses sustained in the first quarter 2009 and narrowing the gap with performance in 2008 Table (in the full report) indicates the positive performance figures for almost all regions (except Latin America- Caribbean domestic traffic) with international freight out pacing domestic in December and surging ahead by 28 percent This strong result illustrates the mounting confidence in the global economic recovery and significant pent-up demand Nonetheless it is too early to consider this performance as a future indicator of a sustainable economic recovery as this rebound is of a more technical than fundamental nature For the full year freight traffic remains below 2008 performance ( -8 worldwide - 28 domestic -0 international)

Schimm added ldquoACI World and ACI Europe look forward to an excellent turn-out at their 2nd annual ACI Airport Economics and Finance Conference in London 2-24 February 200 The situation is evolving rapidly now and airport executives will have the opportunity to look at the ramifications of this market evolution what it means not only in financial terms but also in terms of airport investments and future capacityrdquo

1ACI Quarterly Traffic Bulletin Q3 2009

Quarter 3 2009 showed a marked improvement of passenger traffic and freight volumes compared previous quarters While passenger traffic was almost flat at 03 (Figure 1) freight volumes shrank by 63 Relative to the year-to-date performances these numbers clearly indicate the beginning of a recovery in the air transport sector and confirm signs of a recovery in the global economy as a whole Also passengers return faster to the market than capacity as aircraft movements comparatively showed only a minor improvement in the third quarter Quarter 3 figures are crucial as they represent the travel and holiday season traditionally the busiest months of the year in terms of passenger volumes

The CAEP8 meeting agreed a new aircraft engine NOx stringency standard

The ICAO Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection - CAEP8 standard for Medium and Large engines (generally for aircraft over 00 seats) will be 5 lower than the old CAEP6 standard For Small engine families (generally for aircraft like regional jets under 00 seats) the reduction is 5 The implementation date will be December 20 and one agreed caveat was that any engine production cut-off would not be implemented before 208

ACI had supported a slightly higher new NOx standard (5 reduction) for smaller aircraft but an identical standard large aircraft This was supported by European States The US supported what became the final outcome Some other States supported slightly less stringent standards ACI and its members can be satisfied with the outcome

The aircraft and engine manufacturers (ICCAIA) and IATA supported a lesser standard for the very largest engines and have noted that it will be very difficult to modify some of the largest in-production engines to achieve this new standard by 20 All recently certified and soon-to-be certified aircraft engine will comfortably comply with the standard

Next week Future Work will be considered including CO2 and Particulate Matter certification and possibly a new noise stringency standard on the work programme

ACI World at work with PartnersACI World formalises a new Plan of Collaboration with WHO

ACI World has agreed a new -year Plan of Collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) which formalizes its working relations with the UN body

This Plan of Collaboration supports the WHO Strategic Objective of strengthening public health security in travel and transport Specifically ACI will be working with the WHO to build the core capacities at airports that are required in the International Health Regulations (IHR) 2005 This will focus on developing best practice guidelines in three areas

bull vector control management (eg controlling rodent and insect populations in and around airports to prevent the spread of disease)

bull pandemic preparedness andbull contingency planning for other public health risks

Action required of airportsAs part of this work the WHO has commissioned a survey to review the response to the Influenza A(HN) outbreak Specifically it focuses on the actions taken at airports ports and border crossings during the period April- July 2009

The survey response period has been extended to 5 February 200 Please check with the responsible person to see if the survey has been completed for your airport If it has not then we urge you to complete the survey now The survey is completed anonymously and the results will be reported in aggregate form thus ensuring complete confidentiality

The survey can be completed and submitted online HERE [httpwwwaciaeroaciacidownloadsWHO_SURVEY_AIRPORTSpdf]

The Plan of Collaboration with WHO dovetails well with ACIrsquos pandemic preparedness work with ICAO The ACI World Annual General Assembly passed a resolution in Kuala Lumpur urging governments and the industry to enhance their preparedness and capacity to deal with out breaks of communicable disease It also urged national authorities and the industry to actively support the ICAO Cooperative Arrangement for Preventing the Spread of Communicable Disease through Air Travel (CAPSCA) initiative in their region This initiative brings together experts from various organizations (in government public health and the aviation sector) from the countries in the region that are responsible for planning and implementing the response to outbreaks of communicable disease

Craig Bradbrook (Director Security amp Facilitation ACI World) commented ldquoThe Resolution passed at the General Assembly shows how important airports and ACI view this work As we have seen in the past seven years with SARS Avian influenza and then A(HN) public health emergencies have the potential to disrupt air travel and airport operations Such out breaks come without prior warning and can escalate into a crisis very quickly Governments and the industry need to ensure that we are adequately prepared for the next outbreakrdquo

Strong traffic growth in December 2009Global passenger traffic up by 5 freight up 23

In December 2009 the ACI PaxFlash and FreightFlash traffic reports show a surge in traffic worldwide Global airport passenger traffic rose by 5 percent relative to December 2008 (Table ) Both international passenger traffic (up by 56 ) and domestic traffic (up by 52 ) were boosted by strong performance across Asia Pacific (+57 international +4 domestic) All regions saw increases except for North America which remained flat ( see Table 2 in the complete release)

There are clear signs of renewed passenger traffic demand at many airports worldwide in this monthrsquos results International traffic grew faster than domestic traffic at most airports in China Traffic in India both domestic and international surged in December (Delhi +2 Bangalore +7 and Mumbai +29 with Mumbai domestic traffic increasing by 9) Similarly traffic growth is on the mend in Russia driven by domestic traffic growth at the Moscow airports ranging from 2 to 40 percent

ACI World Director of Economics Andreas Schimm comments ldquoLooking at full year 2009 global traffic results were much better than expected early in the year finishing at just 26 percent below 2008 Fears that third quarter traffic would decline substantially did not materialize and the stabilization seen provided a platform for remarkable fourth quarter growth Even taking into account falling global traffic demand in late 2008 and the impact on Asia Pacific results in 2008 of the closure of the Bangkok airport due to a political siege which slightly inflate the percentage growth comparison passenger and freight results are very promising rdquo

Overall global figures were boosted by strong domestic traffic in China India and Brazil where volumes surged in the second half of 2009 For the full year traffic results highlight a split between the two largest aviation markets (North America and Europe) each of which lost more than 5 percent traffic in 2009 and the continued

8

expansion of Asia Pacific Latin America-Caribbean and Middle East markets Top performance results in the international category were seen at Dubai (+96) Kuala Lumpur (+88) and Istanbul (+7) the only airports with more than 0 million passengers per annum to register growth in 2009 Airports in Africa suffered a moderate 5 percent setback for the year mainly caused by declines in domestic traffic whereas international shrank only marginally

Freight results show that traffic in November and December was remarkably strong balancing the severe losses sustained in the first quarter 2009 and narrowing the gap with performance in 2008 Table (in the full report) indicates the positive performance figures for almost all regions (except Latin America- Caribbean domestic traffic) with international freight out pacing domestic in December and surging ahead by 28 percent This strong result illustrates the mounting confidence in the global economic recovery and significant pent-up demand Nonetheless it is too early to consider this performance as a future indicator of a sustainable economic recovery as this rebound is of a more technical than fundamental nature For the full year freight traffic remains below 2008 performance ( -8 worldwide - 28 domestic -0 international)

Schimm added ldquoACI World and ACI Europe look forward to an excellent turn-out at their 2nd annual ACI Airport Economics and Finance Conference in London 2-24 February 200 The situation is evolving rapidly now and airport executives will have the opportunity to look at the ramifications of this market evolution what it means not only in financial terms but also in terms of airport investments and future capacityrdquo

1ACI Quarterly Traffic Bulletin Q3 2009

Quarter 3 2009 showed a marked improvement of passenger traffic and freight volumes compared previous quarters While passenger traffic was almost flat at 03 (Figure 1) freight volumes shrank by 63 Relative to the year-to-date performances these numbers clearly indicate the beginning of a recovery in the air transport sector and confirm signs of a recovery in the global economy as a whole Also passengers return faster to the market than capacity as aircraft movements comparatively showed only a minor improvement in the third quarter Quarter 3 figures are crucial as they represent the travel and holiday season traditionally the busiest months of the year in terms of passenger volumes

There are clear signs of renewed passenger traffic demand at many airports worldwide in this monthrsquos results International traffic grew faster than domestic traffic at most airports in China Traffic in India both domestic and international surged in December (Delhi +2 Bangalore +7 and Mumbai +29 with Mumbai domestic traffic increasing by 9) Similarly traffic growth is on the mend in Russia driven by domestic traffic growth at the Moscow airports ranging from 2 to 40 percent

ACI World Director of Economics Andreas Schimm comments ldquoLooking at full year 2009 global traffic results were much better than expected early in the year finishing at just 26 percent below 2008 Fears that third quarter traffic would decline substantially did not materialize and the stabilization seen provided a platform for remarkable fourth quarter growth Even taking into account falling global traffic demand in late 2008 and the impact on Asia Pacific results in 2008 of the closure of the Bangkok airport due to a political siege which slightly inflate the percentage growth comparison passenger and freight results are very promising rdquo

Overall global figures were boosted by strong domestic traffic in China India and Brazil where volumes surged in the second half of 2009 For the full year traffic results highlight a split between the two largest aviation markets (North America and Europe) each of which lost more than 5 percent traffic in 2009 and the continued

expansion of Asia Pacific Latin America-Caribbean and Middle East markets Top performance results in the international category were seen at Dubai (+96) Kuala Lumpur (+88) and Istanbul (+7) the only airports with more than 0 million passengers per annum to register growth in 2009 Airports in Africa suffered a moderate 5 percent setback for the year mainly caused by declines in domestic traffic whereas international shrank only marginally

Freight results show that traffic in November and December was remarkably strong balancing the severe losses sustained in the first quarter 2009 and narrowing the gap with performance in 2008 Table (in the full report) indicates the positive performance figures for almost all regions (except Latin America- Caribbean domestic traffic) with international freight out pacing domestic in December and surging ahead by 28 percent This strong result illustrates the mounting confidence in the global economic recovery and significant pent-up demand Nonetheless it is too early to consider this performance as a future indicator of a sustainable economic recovery as this rebound is of a more technical than fundamental nature For the full year freight traffic remains below 2008 performance ( -8 worldwide - 28 domestic -0 international)

Schimm added ldquoACI World and ACI Europe look forward to an excellent turn-out at their 2nd annual ACI Airport Economics and Finance Conference in London 2-24 February 200 The situation is evolving rapidly now and airport executives will have the opportunity to look at the ramifications of this market evolution what it means not only in financial terms but also in terms of airport investments and future capacityrdquo

PaxFlash and FreightFlashTraffic - December 2009

Strong traffic growth in December 2009Global passenger traffic up by 5 freight up 23

In December 2009 the ACI PaxFlash and FreightFlash traffic reports show a surge in traffic worldwide Global airport passenger traffic rose by 5 percent relative to December 2008 (Table ) Both international passenger traffic (up by 56 ) and domestic traffic (up by 52 ) were boosted by strong performance across Asia Pacific (+57 international +4 domestic) All regions saw increases except for North America which remained flat ( see Table 2 in the complete release)

Statistics

TABLE SUMMARY WORLDWIDE TRAFFIC RESULTS DECEMBER 2009( CHANGE)

Dec 2009 over Dec 2008

YTD JanndashDec 2009 over YTD 2008

Rolling 2 months through Dec 2009

PaxFlash International passenger 56 - 40 - 40

Domestic passenger 52 - 2 - 2

Total passenger 53 - 26 - 26

FreightFlash International freight 279 - 0 - 0

Domestic freight 5 - 28 - 28

Total freight 233 - 80 - 80

There are clear signs of renewed passenger traffic demand at many airports worldwide in this monthrsquos results International traffic grew faster than domestic traffic at most airports in China Traffic in India both domestic and international surged in December (Delhi +2 Bangalore +7 and Mumbai +29 with Mumbai domestic traffic increasing by 9) Similarly traffic growth is on the mend in Russia driven by domestic traffic growth at the Moscow airports ranging from 2 to 40 percent

ACI World Director of Economics Andreas Schimm comments ldquoLooking at full year 2009 global traffic results were much better than expected early in the year finishing at just 26 percent below 2008 Fears that third quarter traffic would decline substantially did not materialize and the stabilization seen provided a platform for remarkable fourth quarter growth Even taking into account falling global traffic demand in late 2008 and the impact on Asia Pacific results in 2008 of the closure of the Bangkok airport due to a political siege which slightly inflate the percentage growth comparison passenger and freight results are very promising rdquo

Overall global figures were boosted by strong domestic traffic in China India and Brazil where volumes surged in the second half of 2009 For the full year traffic results highlight a split between the two largest aviation markets (North America and Europe) each of which lost more than 5 percent traffic in 2009 and the continued

8

expansion of Asia Pacific Latin America-Caribbean and Middle East markets Top performance results in the international category were seen at Dubai (+96) Kuala Lumpur (+88) and Istanbul (+7) the only airports with more than 0 million passengers per annum to register growth in 2009 Airports in Africa suffered a moderate 5 percent setback for the year mainly caused by declines in domestic traffic whereas international shrank only marginally

Freight results show that traffic in November and December was remarkably strong balancing the severe losses sustained in the first quarter 2009 and narrowing the gap with performance in 2008 Table (in the full report) indicates the positive performance figures for almost all regions (except Latin America- Caribbean domestic traffic) with international freight out pacing domestic in December and surging ahead by 28 percent This strong result illustrates the mounting confidence in the global economic recovery and significant pent-up demand Nonetheless it is too early to consider this performance as a future indicator of a sustainable economic recovery as this rebound is of a more technical than fundamental nature For the full year freight traffic remains below 2008 performance ( -8 worldwide - 28 domestic -0 international)

Schimm added ldquoACI World and ACI Europe look forward to an excellent turn-out at their 2nd annual ACI Airport Economics and Finance Conference in London 2-24 February 200 The situation is evolving rapidly now and airport executives will have the opportunity to look at the ramifications of this market evolution what it means not only in financial terms but also in terms of airport investments and future capacityrdquo

1ACI Quarterly Traffic Bulletin Q3 2009

Quarter 3 2009 showed a marked improvement of passenger traffic and freight volumes compared previous quarters While passenger traffic was almost flat at 03 (Figure 1) freight volumes shrank by 63 Relative to the year-to-date performances these numbers clearly indicate the beginning of a recovery in the air transport sector and confirm signs of a recovery in the global economy as a whole Also passengers return faster to the market than capacity as aircraft movements comparatively showed only a minor improvement in the third quarter Quarter 3 figures are crucial as they represent the travel and holiday season traditionally the busiest months of the year in terms of passenger volumes

PaxFlash and FreightFlashTraffic - December 2009

Strong traffic growth in December 2009Global passenger traffic up by 5 freight up 23

In December 2009 the ACI PaxFlash and FreightFlash traffic reports show a surge in traffic worldwide Global airport passenger traffic rose by 5 percent relative to December 2008 (Table ) Both international passenger traffic (up by 56 ) and domestic traffic (up by 52 ) were boosted by strong performance across Asia Pacific (+57 international +4 domestic) All regions saw increases except for North America which remained flat ( see Table 2 in the complete release)

There are clear signs of renewed passenger traffic demand at many airports worldwide in this monthrsquos results International traffic grew faster than domestic traffic at most airports in China Traffic in India both domestic and international surged in December (Delhi +2 Bangalore +7 and Mumbai +29 with Mumbai domestic traffic increasing by 9) Similarly traffic growth is on the mend in Russia driven by domestic traffic growth at the Moscow airports ranging from 2 to 40 percent

ACI World Director of Economics Andreas Schimm comments ldquoLooking at full year 2009 global traffic results were much better than expected early in the year finishing at just 26 percent below 2008 Fears that third quarter traffic would decline substantially did not materialize and the stabilization seen provided a platform for remarkable fourth quarter growth Even taking into account falling global traffic demand in late 2008 and the impact on Asia Pacific results in 2008 of the closure of the Bangkok airport due to a political siege which slightly inflate the percentage growth comparison passenger and freight results are very promising rdquo

Overall global figures were boosted by strong domestic traffic in China India and Brazil where volumes surged in the second half of 2009 For the full year traffic results highlight a split between the two largest aviation markets (North America and Europe) each of which lost more than 5 percent traffic in 2009 and the continued

expansion of Asia Pacific Latin America-Caribbean and Middle East markets Top performance results in the international category were seen at Dubai (+96) Kuala Lumpur (+88) and Istanbul (+7) the only airports with more than 0 million passengers per annum to register growth in 2009 Airports in Africa suffered a moderate 5 percent setback for the year mainly caused by declines in domestic traffic whereas international shrank only marginally

Freight results show that traffic in November and December was remarkably strong balancing the severe losses sustained in the first quarter 2009 and narrowing the gap with performance in 2008 Table (in the full report) indicates the positive performance figures for almost all regions (except Latin America- Caribbean domestic traffic) with international freight out pacing domestic in December and surging ahead by 28 percent This strong result illustrates the mounting confidence in the global economic recovery and significant pent-up demand Nonetheless it is too early to consider this performance as a future indicator of a sustainable economic recovery as this rebound is of a more technical than fundamental nature For the full year freight traffic remains below 2008 performance ( -8 worldwide - 28 domestic -0 international)

Schimm added ldquoACI World and ACI Europe look forward to an excellent turn-out at their 2nd annual ACI Airport Economics and Finance Conference in London 2-24 February 200 The situation is evolving rapidly now and airport executives will have the opportunity to look at the ramifications of this market evolution what it means not only in financial terms but also in terms of airport investments and future capacityrdquo

Buy your copy of the 4th edition of the ACI Airport Economics Survey that was released in late December 2009 The Survey has data and analysis regarding airport operations for 2008 based on ACI member input through the survey conducted in 2009 (quarters 2 and ) This survey drew a strong response from 709 airports that together handled 4 billion passengers or about 70 percent of worldwide traffic in 2008 providing unique insights into economics and finances of airports around the world

1ACI Quarterly Traffic Bulletin Q3 2009

Quarter 3 2009 showed a marked improvement of passenger traffic and freight volumes compared previous quarters While passenger traffic was almost flat at 03 (Figure 1) freight volumes shrank by 63 Relative to the year-to-date performances these numbers clearly indicate the beginning of a recovery in the air transport sector and confirm signs of a recovery in the global economy as a whole Also passengers return faster to the market than capacity as aircraft movements comparatively showed only a minor improvement in the third quarter Quarter 3 figures are crucial as they represent the travel and holiday season traditionally the busiest months of the year in terms of passenger volumes

Buy your copy of the 4th edition of the ACI Airport Economics Survey that was released in late December 2009 The Survey has data and analysis regarding airport operations for 2008 based on ACI member input through the survey conducted in 2009 (quarters 2 and ) This survey drew a strong response from 709 airports that together handled 4 billion passengers or about 70 percent of worldwide traffic in 2008 providing unique insights into economics and finances of airports around the world

1ACI Quarterly Traffic Bulletin Q3 2009

Quarter 3 2009 showed a marked improvement of passenger traffic and freight volumes compared previous quarters While passenger traffic was almost flat at 03 (Figure 1) freight volumes shrank by 63 Relative to the year-to-date performances these numbers clearly indicate the beginning of a recovery in the air transport sector and confirm signs of a recovery in the global economy as a whole Also passengers return faster to the market than capacity as aircraft movements comparatively showed only a minor improvement in the third quarter Quarter 3 figures are crucial as they represent the travel and holiday season traditionally the busiest months of the year in terms of passenger volumes
