See How Much Air Traffic Has Dropped at the World’s Busiest Airports

Due to COVID-19 lockdowns and travel restrictions, air travel has dropped dramatically in the first half of 2020. Passenger numbers decreased by 58.4% worldwide compared to the same time period in 2019, according to an analysis by Airports Council International. That amounts to a reduction in passengers of 5.6 billion for the year. Not surprisingly, revenues have dropped as well. Airlines are expected to make $104.5 billion less than their projected revenues for 2020.

And things aren’t expected to look up anytime soon. The holidays are usually a major travel time, but the analysis predicts that passenger traffic volumes will only reach 56% in December. Passenger volume is not expected to recover to 2019 levels until 2023.

“As air transport has always been an industry based on the interdependence of all its parts, the COVID-19 crisis devastated all stakeholders — from aircraft manufacturers and travel agents to retailers in airports — and resulted in job losses, business shutdowns, bankruptcies and other instances of economic devastation,” Airports Council International world director general Luis Felipe de Oliveira said in a media release.

Some of the world’s busiest airports — including Atlanta and Beijing airports, which had more than 100 million passengers fly through in 2019 — have seen major drops in passenger volume. Here’s how much passenger traffic has dropped at the 10 busiest airports across the globe:
