Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) handled 4.81 million passengers and 33,240 flight movements in March 2025, up 10.4% and 11.5% year-on-year, respectively, according to figures released by Airport Authority Hong Kong. Growth was fuelled by rising numbers of transfer/transit passengers and strong traffic from Mainland China and Japan.
In cargo, HKIA processed 449,000 tonnes, a 4.8% increase, driven by export demand, particularly to Europe and the Middle East. Over the first quarter, passenger volume rose 15% to 14.59 million, and cargo grew 3.2% to 1.17 million tonnes.
New routes launched in March—by Cathay Pacific (Hyderabad), West Air (Dali), and Vietnam Airlines (Ho Chi Minh City)—further expanded HKIA’s regional and international connectivity.
