The Greater Moncton Romeo LeBlanc International Airport ended the year with 173,404 passengers, a 74.3 percent decline from 674,406 passengers at the end of 2019. That’s also about 30 percent lower than the 239,320 passenger level of 1997, the year the airport authority took over operations from the federal government.
“With the current travel restrictions and quarantining requirements in place and with the situation continuously evolving, it is difficult for our business to ramp up to prior passenger activity or income levels,” said CEO Bernard LeBlanc said in a release.
“That being said, our airport continues to operate 24/7 with both runways fully operational to accommodate all commercial passenger, cargo, charter, MFC Training (Flight College), and general aviation aircraft activity.”
