Asia-Pacific and the Middle East aviation industry is experiencing green shoots of recovery, according to the first edition of the Airport Industry Outlook, a quarterly report by Airports Council International Asia-Pacific (ACI APAC). The report, developed in partnership with Mott MacDonald — a global engineering, management and development consultancy— provides a snapshot of how airports in the region have performed during the first quarter of 2022 (Jan to March). This analysis also sheds light on two recurring themes which are currently impacting the industry — COVID-19 pandemic and the geo-political conflict.

For international flights, although the number of passengers entering Japan has been on an increasing trend due to the gradual easing of entry restrictions since March 1, limited passenger traffic continued due to the prolonged impact of COVID-19. For domestic flights, the total number of domestic passengers at the three airports was approximately 65% of the pre-COVID level (April 2019), due to the lifting of quasi-emergency measures in March and an increase in the number of passengers during the consecutive holidays. Although the number of international cargo movements continued to be at a high level of over 2,000 times a month, it was slightly lower than the previous year due to the influence of the recent unstable world situation.
