→ 98 | Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg GmbH → 02Business Report A Development of the Aviation Industry The growth in passengers at the German airports was on average around 3.3% in 2016 and therefore less than the growth in 2015 (+3.8%). With regard to air traffic development the year 2016 was also characterised by various terror attacks as well as plane crashes. The travel behaviour in Germany was influenced by the fear of terrorist attacks as well as by the uncertainty of political developments in various south European and north African countries. With 2.8% the domestic passenger air traffic grew less than average, European travel with 4.6% on the other hand more than average. The intercontinental traffic continued to fall, which recorded a fall of 0.2% (source: ADV Traffic Statistics 2016). However, a general trend cannot be derived from this as the large hubs recorded a different development. In Frankfurt the passenger volumes fell in 2016 (– 0.4%), in Munich on the other hand a higher volume (+3.1%) was recorded. In general, however, the growth in 2016 was mainly driven by the Low-Cost traffic and were demonstrated in very high growth rates at airports substantially driven by low-cost-traffic such as Cologne/Bonn and Schönefeld. In total 4,588,367 tons of air freight was moved by the German airport in the fiscal year. This therefore increased by 3.4%. Both the number of unloading (+3.6% to 2,173,579 tons) as well as the loading movements (+3.1% to 2,414,797 tons) increased in 2016 B. Commercial Development in 2016 B.1 Aviation management/Traffic development In the fiscal year 2016 a total of 32,906,881 passengers were handled at Schönefeld and Tegel Airports. The passenger volumes thus increased by 11.4% compared to the previous year. On a German-wide comparison this therefore repeatedly led to more than average growth. With regard to the movements Berlin is in total the strongest growing airport system in Germany (+8.2% to 282,062 movements). The average capacity utilisation was with 76.5% 0.8% less than the level of the previous year.

Our Figures | 99 ← The location has further cemented and expanded its position as the third-largest airport site in Germany.

In addition, easyJet stationed an eleventh aircraft in Schönefeld. The volume of Ryanair increased by 194.3% to 4.1 million passengers, that of easyJet by 5.3% to 4.6 million passengers. Due to the engagement the connection of Berlin, and in particular of Schönefeld, improved to further European destinations (Bordeaux, Marseille, Newcastle and Toulouse by easyJet as well as Timosioara, Nis, Podgorica, Santander, Sevilla, Rzeszow and Belfast by Ryanair). As a new Low-Cost-Airline it was possible to welcome Wizzair in Schönefeld in March 2016. Over the course of the year it began connections to Tuzla, Cluj-Napoca and Skopje.
