Note that preliminary passenger traffic figures for 2019, as well as January 2020 for Ezeiza Airport, in Argentina, were adjusted to include additional inbound passengers not accounted for in the initial count, for an average of approximately 5% of total passenger traffic at Ezeiza Airport and 1% of total traffic at CAAP, during that period. Importantly, inbound traffic does not affect revenues, as tariffs are applicable on departure passengers.

Passenger Traffic Overview

Total passenger traffic in January 2022 grew 78.6% compared to the same period of last year, or 90.2% excluding Peru, driven by increases across all countries of operations, particularly in Argentina, reflecting easier comparisons due to tougher travel restrictions in the year ago period and the opening of borders since November 1, 2021. When compared to January 2019, overall passenger traffic declined 37.0%, or 34.8% excluding Peru, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

In Italy, passenger traffic grew 4.3x YoY and declined 58.5% when compared to January 2019.

During the month, however, passenger traffic was also affected by the cancelation of a number of flights due to COVID cases within the crew.

Total passenger traffic in Uruguay increased 6.5x YoY. Against January 2019, passenger traffic was down 53.8% showing, but posted a 10.7% sequential improvement when compared to December 2021, mainly driven by higher traffic demand during the summer season.
