The airport noted (13-Oct-2014) the Sep-2014 result marks the largest monthly increase in passenger numbers in over eight years for the airport, with growth driven by the adding of new routes such to Larnaca, Dortmund, Athens and Dundee, increased frequencies offered by airlines on key routes such as Milan, Rome, Berlin and Dublin, and passenger initiatives such as Ryanair's recently launched business product and family friendly travel options. Commenting on the achievement, MD Andrew Harrison said, "To see 1.6 million more passengers fly from Stansted in the first 19 months of ownership by MAG and once again break through the symbolic 19 million figure is the latest milestone on the road to delivering a sustained period of growth for the airport."
