ISTANBUL (AA) – Roughly 59 million air passengers traveled to Germany this summer from April to October, an annual rise of 108.7%, according to official data released on Wednesday.
Around 54.6 million air passengers took flights from Germany to other countries in the same period, a yearly increase of 111%, the country’s statistical office Destatis reported.
The authority pointed out that air travel was “strongly affected” due to COVID-19 restrictions in 2021.
