Record number of passengers used Tallinn Airport in March

 

Tallinn Airport served 232,951 passengers in March, which is 35 percent more than in March last year. The number of passengers is an all time record for the month of March.

The number of air passengers in March also exceeded the number of passengers in 2019. This statistic alone shows the recovery of the tourism industry after the pandemic.

In total, 47 destinations can be reached directly from Tallinn Airport this year. The airport estimates that the number of passengers will rise to almost three million this year.

At the beginning of March, the Airports Council International (ACI), in cooperation with travel technology company Amadeus, announced the winners of the 2022 Airport Service Quality (ASQ) award. Tallinn Airport was chosen as the best airport in Europe in the category of two to five million passengers.
