According to Andrew Herdman, DG at the Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA), the region's carriers registered a 6.7% increase in international passengers to 18.2 million, along with a 5.4% increase in international air cargo in freight tonne kilometres (FTK) terms registered a solid compared to the same month last year. Sadly, the average freight load factor fell 0.5% to 67.2%. “Looking ahead, Asian carriers remain positive about prospects for further growth in demand,” said Herdman. “Demand has picked up in recent months in line with steadily improving global economic conditions.”
