Passenger Traffic Overview
Total passenger traffic increased by 3.2% in December compared to the same month in 2023, or by 6.6% when adjusted for the discontinuation of operations at Natal Airport. Domestic passenger traffic decreased by 2.1% year-over-year but increased by 3.3% when excluding Natal. This growth was primarily driven by strong performance in Italy and a recovery in domestic traffic in Argentina. International traffic increased by 11.4%, mainly driven by growth in Argentina and Italy.
