October 2020 Monthly traffic update and November 2020 preview
-68.6%
Auckland Airport total passenger volumes decreased by 68.6% in October 2020 versus last year. International passengers (excl.
Transits) were down 97.2%, transit passengers were down 92.1% and domestic passengers were down by 34.9%.
Key Points:
• The decline in total passengers for October 2020 reflects the impact of the travel restrictions imposed by the New Zealand Government in response
to COVID-19. The closure of the New Zealand border from 20 March 2020 to all but New Zealand citizens and permanent residents has had a
significant impact on international services.
• Domestic passenger numbers in October 2020 were 47.9% up on September 2020 reflecting the easing of physical distancing requirements on
domestic air travel in September and Auckland joining the rest of New Zealand at Alert Level 1 from 8 October 2020.
• Air New Zealand operated almost 90% of its pre-COVID-19 domestic capacity during the October school holiday period.
