Fraport AG (FRA.DE,0O1R.L,FPRUF.PK) reported traffic figures for July 2014 at its Frankfurt Airport (FRA) home base. With almost 5.9 million passengers served in July 2014, Fraport recorded the busiest passenger month in FRA's history. Despite weather-related cancellations during the reporting month, passenger traffic advanced by 2.3 percent compared to the same period last year. The company said the increase can be attributed to the summer school holidays commencing in July in all of Germany's federal states.
FRA's cargo (airfreight and airmail) throughput grew modestly by 1.1 percent year-on-year to 181,459 metric tons. Aircraft movements decreased by 1.0 percent to 42,841 takeoffs and landings, impacted by the numerous weather-related flight cancellations.
