Fraport Traffic Figures – January 2012: Off to a Flying Start in the Year of the Dragon

FRANKFURT, Germany, February 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ –

Fraport AG welcomed 4.1 million passengers at Frankfurt Airport (FRA) in the first
month of the New Year – resulting in a 5.5 percent traffic jump year-on-year at Germany’s
largest airport. Reasons for this growth included the favorable winter weather conditions
(absence of snow) which contributed to optimum operations in January 2012. FRA’s strong
punctuality figure of 85.1 percent in January 2012 was also positively affected by the
favorable weather, in combination with increased capacity and operational flexibility
created by the new Runway Northwest inaugurated in October 2011.

Aircraft movements at Frankfurt Airport rose slightly by 0.7 percent to 37,651
takeoffs and landings year-on-year. In comparison, total accumulated maximum takeoff
weights (MTOWs) slipped by 1.6 percent to approximately 2.2 million metric tons. In the
airfreight segment, traffic dropped by 16.8 percent to 141,340 metric tons year-on-year.
Factors contributing to this decline included uncertainty in the global economy as well as
the existing nighttime flight curfew imposed at the beginning of FRA’s Winter Timetable
2011/2012. Another factor was the impact on Far East traffic of the production slowdown
during the two-week-long Chinese New Year’s festival that started on January 23rd -
whereas last year it fell completely in the month of February. Airmail posted a visible
gain of 3.0 percent to about 6,900 metric tons year-on-year.

Fraport’s five majority-owned airports (AYT, FRA, BOJ, LIM, VAR) served a total of 5.7
million passengers in the reporting month – growing by 6.6 percent year-on-year.
Increasing by 8.0 percent year-on-year, traffic at Peru’s Lima Airport (LIM) exceeded the
one million passenger mark in January 2012. Antalya Airport (AYT) on the Turkish Riviera
recorded nearly 600,000 passengers, representing double-digit growth of 14.5 percent
year-on-year.

On the Bulgaria Black Sea coast, traffic surged at Burgas Airport (BOJ) by more than
150 percent to some 21,000 passengers. This rise can be attributed partially to the
diversion of traffic from Varna Airport (VAR), which has been temporarily closed for
reconstruction work from October 15, 2011, to February 28, 2012.
