SINGAPORE, 27 July 2017 – Singapore Changi Airport registered 5.21 million passenger movements in June, a 7.7% year-on-year increase. Aircraft movements rose 5.4% to 30,920 landings and takeoffs, while cargo shipments grew 5.5% to reach 172,040 tonnes, compared to the same period last year.
Passenger traffic for the month of June was boosted by growth across all regions.
