passenger traffic takes off in October

With 128,340 more passengers than over the same period last year, Guadeloupe Maryse Condé airport saw its number of travelers increase by 6.1% in October 2024. The All Saints' Day holidays as well as the arrival of new companies benefited at the airport. But not with the same intensity in all destinations. The northern islands are doing well.

Attendance figures at Guadeloupe Maryse Condé airport are up in October and this is a good sign for the new tourist season ahead. 128,340 more passengers were recorded in traffic. The prize for recovery goes to the northern islands. 34% more passengers, in one year, between Guadeloupe Saint-Martin and Saint-Barthélemy.

Results which can be explained by the return of Air Antilles on this route and the arrival of the new company Saint-Bart Exécutive.

On the second step of the podium, the Pointe-à-Pitre / Fort-de- connection. 6% more traffic with the sister island. Here too, it is most certainly the return of New Air Antilles and its competitive effect, both on the supply of seats but also on lower ticket prices.

In third place, the transatlantic, almost 4% more frequentation to compared to last October. But these are figures that still need to be weighed somewhat, because a third of this increase is the consequence of flights diverted to Guadeloupe due to the occupation of airport by the RPPRAC, in the framework of the mobilization against the high cost of living. Finally at the foot of this podium, the North America axis. The United States with Miami and Canada with Montreal still have the wind in their sails.

An improvement therefore, in Guadeloupe Maryse Condé, which could be further accentuated next month with the arrival of the company Caribbean Airlines and its service to Dominica, Saint Lucia, Barbados and Trinidad.
