Singapore Changi Airport registered 17.5 million passenger movements from April to June 2025 (Q2), reflecting a year-on-year growth of 5.9%. Aircraft movements, including landings and take-offs, totalled 93,600 for the quarter – up 4.9% compared to the same period last year.
Changi Airport’s top five markets for the quarter were China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia and India. Passenger traffic between Singapore and its top source markets, China and Indonesia, witnessed the highest growth during this period, with traffic exceeding 2024 levels by 15.8% and 12.0% respectively. Consistent with this trend, Jakarta and Shanghai were the fastest growing among Changi’s top 10 cities.
In Q2 2025, Changi Airport registered 516,000 tonnes of airfreight throughput, a 6.2% increase compared to the same period last year. Amid global trade uncertainties, Changi recorded growth across all cargo flows, with imports posting the strongest performance, increasing by 8% compared to Q2 2024. For this quarter, Changi’s top five air cargo markets were China, the United States of America, Hong Kong, Australia, and India.
Mr Lim Ching Kiat, Changi Airport Group’s Executive Vice President for Air Hub and Cargo Development, said, “We continue to see healthy growth in passenger traffic this quarter, supported by steady demand across key markets. Notably, traffic to and from China and Indonesia recorded particularly strong growth in the second quarter, demonstrating our ongoing efforts to boost travel demand in the region. Together with our airline partners, we strive to establish more connections for passengers to travel to new and exciting destinations.”
