African carriers posted a 34.7% traffic increase in June compared to the same month in 2022 as the post-COVID recovery momentum continues. This is according to a monthly report of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) report issued today. The report says international traffic climbed 33.7% in June 2023 versus the same month last year with all markets showing robust growth. African airlines saw 34.7% traffic rise in the same period, the second highest percentage gain among the regions, per IATA. “Africa was the only region to see a decline in the monthly international load factor compared to the year ago period,” the report noted.
