Passenger Traffic Overview
Total passenger traffic increased by 10.2% in October compared to the same month in 2024. Domestic passenger traffic rose by 9.1% year over year (YoY), largely driven by Argentina, along with strong performance in Brazil. Meanwhile, international traffic grew by 11.6%, with all operating countries contributing positively YoY and particularly strong results in Argentina and Armenia. Notably, Argentina accounted for almost 60% of the total YoY traffic growth in October.
In Argentina, total passenger traffic increased by 11.6% YoY, driven by strong performance across both the international and domestic segments. Domestic traffic grew by 9.9% YoY, supported by increased frequencies by Flybondi on its routes from Buenos Aires to San Juan, Mendoza, Salta, and Jujuy. International traffic also remained solid, rising 15.1% YoY, supported by several developments, including LATAM’s resumption of operations from Córdoba to São Paulo, and increased operations by Air Canada and Emirates to five and seven weekly flights, respectively. Additionally, in October, Delta resumed its New York route, operating through March 2026.
In Italy, passenger traffic grew by 6.8% compared to the same month in 2024, mainly supported by an increase in flight frequencies by Ryanair. International passenger traffic, which accounted for over 80% of total traffic, rose by 7.9% YoY, driven by a 12.2% increase at Florence Airport and a 4.8% increase at Pisa Airport. Domestic passenger traffic grew by 1.8% YoY, supported by a strong performance at Pisa Airport (+8.7%) due to the increase in Ryanair’s flight frequencies, partially offset by a 16.3% decline at Florence Airport.
In Brazil, total passenger traffic increased by 9.8% YoY, reflecting an improvement in traffic trends despite ongoing challenges in the aviation environment. Domestic traffic, which accounted for almost 60% of total traffic, rose by a strong 10.3% YoY, while transit passengers increased by 8.5% YoY. Notably, although representing a small share of total traffic (5%), international traffic grew by 13.2% YoY.
In Uruguay, total passenger traffic, predominantly international, increased by 6.9% YoY, recovering from the decline recorded in September, when operations were suspended for two days due to the installation of the new Category IIIb Precision Instrument Landing System (ILS CAT IIIb) on the main runway.
In Ecuador, where security concerns persist, passenger traffic increased by 1.2% YoY, rebounding from the decline in September caused by runway repaving work that required a two-day suspension of operations. International traffic grew by 2.3% YoY, while domestic traffic increased by 0.8% YoY. High airfares continued to weigh on travel demand.
In Armenia, passenger traffic increased by a strong 15.3% YoY, supported by the introduction of new airlines and routes, as well as increased flight frequencies. In October, Wizz Air launched a new base at Yerevan’s Zvartnots Airport, deploying two aircraft and adding eight new direct routes to Europe.

Cargo volume increased by 1.1% YoY, with positive contributions from Uruguay, Armenia and Argentina. Performance by country was as follows: Uruguay (+19.4%), Armenia (+7.3%), Argentina (+3.6%), Ecuador (-5.7%), Italy (-8.2%), and Brazil (-14.4%).
