MAp reports growth at all three investment airports
MAp reported traffic was up across all three of its investment airports in Feb-2011, despite a number of one-off events. Growth at Sydney airport was marginal, thanks to the earlier timing of Chinese New Year and severe weather conditions.
Copenhagen and Brussels traffic was affected by the political unrest in the Middle East. Shares in MAp were down 2.4% in another rough day for most Asia-Pacific airport stocks. Australian Infrastructure Fund shares dropped 4.7%, while Xiamen, Beijing, Guangzhou and Shannghai airport stocks all closed lower. Indian airport companies GMR and GVK were also down.
