January 2016 comes with a new record for Iasi airport. It was transited by 41.805 passengers (embarked - 23.507 / disembarked - 18.218). According to the announced data, passenger traffic doubled compared to January 2015 and tripled to January 2014.
We remind that this evolution is due to the new modernizations brought to the airport. A new runway and a new, more spacious terminal have been built, allowing 320 to process peak hours and 3.555 for daily passengers. Another explanation for the evolution of passenger traffic in Iasi relates to the increase of routes. The airport team is constantly concerned about the introduction of new routes and the partner airline operators are looking to increase the frequency of already existing flights.
