Tocumen International Airport handled 1,243,475 passengers in April, an increase of 787,211 over the same period in 2021.

Raffoul Arab, General Manager of the airport said: "The reduction of mobility restrictions and the recovery of passenger confidence to travel are key measures for the recovery of the air transport industry."

The figure represents a significant increase in passenger movement compared to last year, due to the global increase in vaccinated people and the sanitary measures applied by different countries, added Arab.

In the month of April Tocumen maintained its direct connections to 78 destinations, through 20 airlines.

The mobilization of passengers through Tocumen in April 2022 is led by users from South America, which represented 46%, North America 29%, the Caribbean 10%, Central America 10%, and Europe 5%.
