asitis Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 GOOD JOB A GLOBAL RECESSION HAS COME TO THE RESCUE OF HER BUSINESS CASE LOL !! 1.00 million by 2010 1.75 million by 2015 2.50 million by 2030 In order to achieve these targets, passenger numbers must increase at an accelerated, sustained rate over an extended period of time. Assuming a project completion date in 2008, and a linear growth pattern, passenger numbers will have to increase by 9.3% per annum leading up to 2010, 11.8% p.a. over the next period to 2015, and a further 2.4% p.a. increase thereafter to reach the 2.5 million target by 2030. The International Air Transport Association (2007) have warned of slowed air travel growth and estimate global passenger numbers to increase by 4.5% per year over the next 25 years. Therefore to achieve the published targets, the airport would not only have to meet, but exceed industry growth by nearly 300% in some periods.
