Bucharest’s Henri Coanda International Airport ranks fourth in the European ranking of the airports that recorded the highest increase in air traffic in 2014.

The ranking included airports with 5 -10 million passengers.

The airports in Basel, Lanzarote (Canary Islands) and Napoli occupy the first three places while the airport in Porto ranks fifth.

The Airports Council International-Europe, the association of airport operators, has put together the ranking.

The two airports in Bucharest, the Henri Coanda International Airport, and Aurel Vlaicu International Airport, recorded last year a record number of more than 8 million passengers and more than 100,000 landings and takeoffs. The number of travellers that entered the Bucharest airports increased by 8.8% in 2014.
