Birmingham Airport favoured over London Airports

Good news for Birmingham International Airport and Emirates Airlines. The airline boasted a 71% rise in passenger numbers from people favouring the Midlands airport over London.

This means Birmingham could be looking to accommodate larger aircraft as Emirates’s passenger numbers continue to increase.

Seven most popular destinations with Emirates’s passengers are in Australia as Perth, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne are now leaving places such as Delhi and Dhaka behind in the popularity stakes.
