Passenger and Cargo Performance Indicator

Due to Covid-19 the figures for 2020 are much lower than normal, for 2019 total movements were 47,411 and passengers 2,480,872. 

The airport does not have cargo facilities such as ground support equipment, warehousing etc, all cargo currently handled is by forklift or aircraft equipment (C17, IL76) directly onto truck or from truck directly onto aircraft, so the maximum capacity cannot be determined. The airport can accommodate all aircraft with a wingspan of 50m or less.
