Decline in Lanzarote Holiday Makers

A total of 5,438,178 passengers passed through Lanzarote Airport during 2008 a reduction of 3.3% compared to 2007. December's numbers were particularly depressing falling by a massive 18.5% compared to December 2007. A total of 361,815 passengers used the Airport in the last month of 2008 compared to 443,772 during the same period of the previous year.

Passenger numbers had increased strongly during the first half of 2008, however the collapse of XL and the global financial crisis have taken their toll and passenger numbers were down during each of the last six months of the year, with December recording the largest year-on-year decline.
