Notes:
This monthly traffic update from Auckland International Airport Limited (AIAL) is generated with assistance and data from Statistics New Zealand, the New Zealand Customs Service, Airways New Zealand, Immigration New Zealand, Queenstown

Airport Corporation and AIAL. International and Domestic passenger movements are actual. A refinement in transit reporting from Immigration New Zealand in June 2018 has resulted in Auckland Airport restating Transit passenger numbers

for the current and prior periods. This document is intended for information purposes. It should not be considered a recommendation, offer or invitation to purchase securities. All reasonable steps have been taken to ensure that the information

is true and accurate at the time of publication. *Maximum Certificated Take-Off Weight (MCTOW) forms the basis of determining airfield charges at Auckland Airport. **Statistics New Zealand cargo data is one month in arrears.

October 2018 Monthly traffic update


2.5%

Auckland Airport experienced total passenger growth of 2.5% in October 2018. International passengers (excl. Transits) were up 3.1%,

while domestic passengers grew by 3.0% compared to October 2017. International passenger growth (excl. Transits) was predominantly

driven by additional capacity on Asia (+35,000 seats), particularly to Indonesia (+23,000 seats), and Pacific Island routes (+19,000 seats).

Australian arrivals growth of 7.8% mainly driven by later timing of Australian school holidays this year.


Key Points:

• Air Asia X has announced it will cease its Auckland-Kuala Lumpur via Gold Coast service effective from 11 February 2019.

• Air New Zealand announced it will add an additional weekly service on its Auckland-Gold Coast route using its new A321neo aircraft to increase

the number of seats available on this route by almost 60% from February 2019.
