Some 4.2 million passengers used Frankfurt Airport (FRA) in January 2017, resulting in an increase of about 75,000 passengers (up 1.8%) and a new January monthly record at FRA. Thus, this continues the passenger growth trend set during the last two months of 2016. FRA’s cargo volume rose briskly by 5.6% to 168,556 metric tons. The growing global demand for goods and the timing of the Chinese New Year encouraged these dynamic developments at the beginning of 2017.
