Many people travel abroad for their summer holidays, and that shows at Copenhagen Airport, as the number of international passengers rose by 4.4% year on year in June.

“June 2013 was the busiest month ever in Copenhagen Airport’s 88-year history.

The new, more light and spacious terminal area has 12 new check-in desks and a large number of additional self-service kiosks,” said Thomas Woldbye, CEO of Copenhagen Airport.

Domestic traffic increased by as much as 10.2%. This brought the total year-on-year increase in passenger numbers to 4.8% in June.

Year-to-date, passenger numbers at Copenhagen Airport increased by 2.2%, to a total of 11.5 million passengers.
