E-commerce boosts cargo traffic at Brussels Airport

The impact of internet trade has had a particular impact on integrator DHL’s traffic, which saw its tonnage increase by a whopping 44.5% to 16,219 tonnes. Other full-freighter traffic still continues to show a decline, this time by 21.3% to 10,326 tonnes. It is thus thanks to DHL that freighter traffic still managed to show an increase of 9.0% to 26,544 tonnes, while traffic aboard passenger aircraft, belly cargo, accounted for 12,365 tonnes (+13.5%).
