International passenger volumes, excluding transits, at Auckland Airport were up 1.8 per cent in February versus the same month last year.
The number of passengers travelling to and from Asia increased 11.3 per cent, notwithstanding a drop in arrivals of Chinese, Japanese and Korean residents, the airport says.
Domestic passenger volumes for February were up 2.2 on last year, driven by strong domestic passenger volume growth on Jetstar flights.
