Published: Thursday, April 3, 2025

Hahn Airport has been able to increase both passenger and cargo numbers in the first three months of 2025. In the first quarter of 2025, TRIWO Hahn Airport counted more than 440,000 passengers. This is over 30 percent more than in the same period last year. An increase was also recorded in the cargo business: the airport handled around 22,000 tons of air freight in the first quarter of 2025. This is around eight percent more than in the same period last year.

“The year 2025 has gotten off to a good start,” says Rüdiger Franke, Managing Director at TRIWO Hahn Airport. Regarding the passenger business, he adds: “The airlines have expanded their services at Hahn Airport. This also applies to the summer flight schedule, which has been in effect since March 30. We expect to draw 2.2 million passengers by the end of the year.”

Commenting on the increase in cargo figures, Rüdiger Franke says: “This was a good start to 2025. With its 24-hour operating permit, Hahn Airport remains attractive. However, it remains to be seen how the current geopolitical uncertainties will affect the cargo business.”

Hahn Airport is actively preparing for further increases in passenger numbers. Managing Director Franke emphasizes: “We are investing in the redesign and modernization of our terminal and are centralizing the security check, for example. This will further optimize passenger processes.”

Hahn Airport is also pushing ahead with digitalization, including self-drop-off terminals. This will also further reduce check-in and waiting times for passengers.
