Passenger volumes, air traffic movements and cross-boundary passenger trips set new records. In the face of market uncertainties, HKIA’s cargo throughput increased 2.9% making us the world’s busiest cargo airport for the third consecutive year. Our performance was recognised with many accolades received during the year. For the 10th year running, HKIA was named the world’s best airport by TTG. We were recognised as the best airport in Asia by Frequent Business Traveller and FinanceAsia. 12 Hong Kong International Airport AN ECONOMIC A WORLD-CLASS 15 YEARS ENGINE FOR airport + OF GROWTH = HONG KONG HKIA delivered strong financial results, with profit attributable to equity shareholder rising 5.4%, to HK$5,624 million. Of that amount, HK$4,400 million will be paid to our shareholder, the Hong Kong SAR Government, as a dividend in respect of the profit for that year. In the 15 years since the airport opened, Airport Authority Hong Kong (AAHK) will have returned a total of HK$30,380 million to the Hong Kong SAR Government in repaid capital and dividends. Fifteen Years of Growth HKIA’s operations have grown dramatically since the airport opened in 1998. Passenger volumes, flight movements and cargo throughput have more than doubled. Our destination network has increased from 120 to about 180 cities, while the number of airlines serving Hong Kong has risen from 60 to over 100. The relocation of the airport from Kai Tak, which had a single runway, to Chek Annual Report 2012/13 13 Chairman’s Statement “HKIA’s operations have grown dramatically since the airport opened in 1998. Passenger volumes, flight movements and cargo throughput have more than doubled. Our destination network has increased from 120 to about 180 cities, while the number of airlines serving Hong Kong has risen from 60 to over 100.” Lap Kok enabled this expansion. The new airport’s two-runway system allowed Hong Kong’s aviation industry to develop and make a large contribution to the local economy. Additional capacity also helped us increase efficiency and customer satisfaction. In retrospect, we are fortunate that the right decision was made two decades ago.
