Quito performs better than last year


Export cargo numbers at Quito airport (UIO) show a clear trend. Andrew O'Brian, President and CEO of Corporación Quiport, operator and administrator of the airport of the capital of Ecuador: "In April, the worst month for cargo exports, there was a -33.5% variation compared to the same month of 2019. Since then the recovery has been constant: in May the descent was -9%, in June it was -4.7% and by July there was a growth of 1.8% compared to the same month of 2019 and in August the increase was 10.1%."

 

UIO cargo operations were not suspended at any time since the start of the health emergency, which allowed the activities of the floriculturists to endure. Additionally, the airport was an important entry point for medicines, medical supplies and material for Covid-19 testing. (ah)
