Passenger flow at Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) fell 4.7% to 3.6 million in September, as cargo loads also fell, Xinhua has reported the operator as saying. Air traffic movements also dropped 0.4% to 24,570.
Chief Executive Officer of the Airport Authority, Stanley Hui Hon-chung, said the declines reflected a troubled global economy. He added that National Day Golden Week holiday also brought fewer numbers of visitors to Hong Kong by air this year than 2007, showing a continuing decline in traffic between Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland.
