Stansted has become the first major British airport to top the best 2019 monthly figures. In July, the total number of passengers reached 2.81 million, which is 102% of the volumes it served in July 2019.
In 2022, Stansted handled 23.29 million passengers, representing only a 10% decrease compared to 2017 figures (one of the most impressive improvements among all UK airports after the Covid 19 pandemic). For this year it could achieve 25 million.
Stansted Airport has been witnessing a series of positive developments this year with the biggest schedule yet from Turkish airline Pegasus, and Emirates resuming twice-daily Dubai flights.
Stansted is dominated by low-cost carrier Ryanair, with more than 100 destinations served by the airline. The airport is owned by the Manchester Airport Group, which also takes in East Midlands.
