Changi Airport serves 4mn passengers in June

For the first half of 2011, the airport handled 22.4mn passengers, up 10.7% while low cost carriers led the growth in passenger movements, increasing 25.2%.

Singapore Changi Airport registered 4.0 million passenger movements in June 2011, 10.8% more than in the same month last year. Aircraft movements grew in tandem, increasing 14.8% to 25,000 flights during the month.

For the first six months of the year, Changi Airport handled 22.4 million passengers, an increase of 10.7% compared to the same period last year. Low cost carriers (LCCs) led the growth in passenger movements, increasing 25.2% while full service carriers grew 6.6%. One in four passengers who passed through Changi was carried on an LCC. Changi Airport handled 144,700 aircraft movements during the six months, an increase of 13.1% compared to 1H2010.

Year-to-date, Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia traffic has led the increase in passenger movements, rising 16.4% and 10.4% respectively. These two regions account for more than two thirds of passenger movements at Changi. Traffic to and from Eastern Europe rose 16.7% during the first six months, albeit from a relatively smaller base.

For the first half of the year, Changi’s top five city links (in terms of passenger movements) remained largely unchanged; Singapore-Jakarta remained the busiest sector. Hong Kong replaced Kuala Lumpur at the second spot, with Bangkok and Manila completing the top 5, according to a Changi Airport.

Changi Airport continued to improve its connectivity to the world with seven new city links introduced since 1 January 2011. They include Helsinki in Finland and Sao Paolo in Brazil, which is the first point in South America to be connected to Changi. During the same period, four carriers - Air Macau, Finnair, Hong Kong Airlines and Taiwan’s TransAsia Airways joined Changi’s family of airlines.

Bouyed by the growth in intra-Asia trade, 908,700 tonnes of cargo passed through Changi Airport in the first six months of year, an increase of 3.3%. For the month of June, Chang handled 153,200 tonnes of cargo, up 2.3% year-on-year.

As at 1 July 2011, Changi Airport serves 100 airlines operating more than 5,800 weekly flights to some 200 cities in 60 countries and territories.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
