Freight
Introduction
Despite the severe drop in full freighter movements (-10.4%), the total volume decreased by only -2.5% to 1,72 million tons. This is a result of improved load factors for both full freighters (+3.8%) as well as more effective usage of belly capacity on passenger flights (+3.1%).
