International Growth Helps Boost Air Moldova Traffic

Air Moldova has reported a 13 per cent rise in passengers during the month of November, thanks to an increase in international traffic. The airline handled around 35,000 passengers during the month with notable rises in traffic between its Chisinau base and London (up 99 per cent), Paris (up 82 per cent), Vienna (up 44 per cent), Madrid (up 39 per cent) and Kiev (up 23 per cent).

The airline says the improved performance is partly responsible to a revised business strategy which has developed its Chisinau International Airport as a regional hub. In the first nine months it says that almost 9,000 passengers have used the facility to transfer between Air Moldova’s flights to western Europe and its regional connections to Moscow, Sochi, Kiev and Bucharest.
