Passenger traffic coming into Jamaica in June was likely stable compared to June 2024, data released by Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, the operators of Sangster and Norman Manley International Airports, suggests.
Passengers traffic passing through Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay during June this year fell by 8,500, a fall of 1.9 percent, with 438,900 incoming and outgoing passengers compared to 447,400 in June 2024.
The Montego Bay fall was almost fully made up by Kingston’s increase of 7,700 passengers, an increase of 5.3 percent to 152,200 from 144,500 in 2024. Passenger traffic through Boscobel’s Fleming International Airport, with daily arrivals from the USA in 2025 compared with twice-weekly service last year, is not in the above numbers. Boscobel’s passenger traffic could result in an overall increase in arrivals to the country in June.
For the six months to June, 5.1 percent or 138,700 fewer passengers passed through the Montego Bay airport, with 2.6 million passengers, down from 2.74 million in 2024. The Montego Bay fall was well short of the increase of 79,900 passengers in Kingston, which increased 8.6 percent to 881,700 from 811,800.
