December 2021 Monthly traffic update preview
-40.0%
Auckland Airport total passenger volumes decreased by 40% in December 2021 versus the prior year and were down 82.4%
compared to November 2018. International passengers (excl. transits) were up 34.7%, transit passengers were down 38.1% and
domestic passengers were down by 44% compared to December 2020.
Key Points:
•Entry to New Zealand remained restricted in the month. International passenger numbers in December improved on the prior month due to an
increase in both outbound and inbound traffic, with the later a result of RSE workers arriving from Pacific Island nations.
•The first 2 weeks of December domestic passenger demand was in-line with prior month of November 2021, down by 92% versus December
2021. Following the removal of Auckland’s regional border restrictions, domestic traffic strengthened for the remainder of December 2021, down
by 7% compared to December 2020.
•Quarantine free travel with Cook Islands recommenced on 14 January 2022.
