Cork Airport to return to pre-covid numbers two years ahead of schedule

Cork Airport to return to pre-covid numbers two years ahead of schedule

Cork Airport recorded strong passenger numbers in April, with 250,030 travellers arriving and departing from the airport. As a result, the airport has revised its 2023 passenger forecast upwards, with 2.6m passengers expected to fly this year. This would see the airport back to pre-pandemic passenger levels.

In 2021, the airport's operator, the DAA, predicted it would be 2025 before Dublin and Cork airports would see passenger numbers return to the levels seen in 2019. However, the passenger figures for Cork in April represent a 30% increase on the same month last year, and a 19% increase on April 2019. Figures from the DAA also show another record month for passenger numbers at Dublin Airport, with a total of 2.83m passengers travelling. In the first four months of 2023, just under 9.5m passengers have passed through Dublin Airport. Friday, April 28, was the busiest day at Dublin Airport while Tuesday, April 11, was the busiest for Cork. London Heathrow was the busiest destination for both airports.

DAA CEO Kenny Jacobs said the April figures were buoyed by a busy Easter period. "The month of May is set to be busy too at both Dublin and Cork airports, as we see large numbers travelling for big events, including the culmination of the football season in the UK, a number of big rugby matches, including the Champions Cup and Challenge Cup finals in Dublin, as well as the beginning of the summer concert season, with a string of big gigs set to take place, starting with Bruce Springsteen this weekend," he said.

"The resumption of key summer services at Cork Airport, including those to destinations such as Frankfurt, Germany; Dubrovnik, Croatia; and a new route to Bristol, UK provides even more choice for passengers at the busiest and best-connected airport serving the South of Ireland."

In a year which saw the swift recovery of international travel after the removal of the last remaining COVID-19 related restrictions, Cork Airport has firmly positioned itself as the state’s second busiest airport and is well on track for very strong recovery in 2023.

The 2022 passenger performance represents a 768% increase on 2021 traffic and an 86% recovery of 2019 passenger traffic, the last equally comparable period prior to the pandemic. With the extremely strong demand for international travel last year coupled with new route additions, Cork Airport delivered exceptional passenger recovery on top of its successful runway reconstruction, completed in November 2021. Throughout the last two years, the steadfast support and assistance from the Department of Transport and the Irish government has greatly aided the recovery of passenger traffic at Cork Airport.

Eight scheduled airlines operated services in 2022 – Ryanair, Aer Lingus, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Air France, Lufthansa, Vueling, SWISS International Air Lines and TUI, together with a number of charter airlines.

December 2022 saw a welcome return of seasonal reunions as passengers celebrated the first restriction free Christmas in three years. Passenger traffic in December 2022 was marginally higher than that experienced in December 2019, indicating a welcome return to pre-pandemic demand for international travel to and from Cork Airport.

Commenting on the 2022 passenger traffic, Managing Director at Cork Airport, Niall MacCarthy said:

“After two years of COVID-19, we were delighted with the strength of the recovery at Cork Airport in 2022.

We thank our loyal and valued customers and encourage prospective passengers in the hinterland of Munster and south Leinster to bear this ease and convenience in mind when booking their summer holidays in 2023.”
