Singapore’s Changi Airport handled 67.7 million passenger movements in 2024, representing a 14.8% year-on-year increase and back to 99.1% of pre-COVID levels, according to information from the airport’s operator, Changi Airport Group.

Aircraft movements also grew by 11.5% year-on-year to 366,000.

Notably, the 17.8 million passenger movements recorded in the December 2024 marked a full recovery on 2019 and a 10.7% increase over 4Q23, while aircraft movements grew by 9.3% year-on-year to 95,300.

December, with 6.4 million passenger movements, was the busiest month in the year, the operator confirmed, as the first time monthly traffic has exceeded six million since December 2019.

While all regions witnessed growth, North Asia was the fastest growing in 2024, registering an increase of 40% compared to 2023.

Changi Airport’s top five passenger markets for the year were China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia and Thailand, with passenger traffic to and from China doubling compared with 2023 and surpassing 2019 levels by 6%. Hong Kong and Japan also recorded significant growth of more than 20% year-on-year, Changi Airport Group said.

“We witnessed a year of strong growth in passenger and cargo traffic as well as connectivity in 2024,” explained Yam Kum Weng, CEO of Changi Airport Group.

“Changi added a bumper crop of 11 new city links, strengthening the air hub’s network and opening up a world of new destinations to support business ties and for travellers to explore. We are deeply grateful for the close partnership with our airline partners and are pleased to welcome the new airlines to Changi. Their collaboration has been instrumental in driving this growth.

“Looking ahead, we are optimistic of another year of growth in passenger traffic. Operating a major air hub in Asia-Pacific, Changi Airport Group will continue to invest in our airport’s infrastructure, systems and processes to augment our handling capacity, so as to be well-placed to support the rising demand for air travel in the coming years.”

The operator added that, as of January 2025, 100 airlines operate over 7,400 weekly scheduled flights at Changi Airport, connecting Singapore to 163 cities in 49 countries and territories worldwide.
