Airport reports fewer passengers

Geneva Airport

Geneva Airport has reported a year of sluggish growth, as external pressures weigh on performance.

The airport says passenger numbers rose by just 0.3%, far below expectations, with around 17.8 million travellers in 2025. 

Profits slipped slightly to CHF 52m, while turnover growth remained minimal.

The airport has been hit by reduced travel linked to international organisations, with official trips down 13%. 

Parking revenues also fell, partly due to transport changes and construction work.

Traffic was mixed throughout the year, with a late boost in December. 

But ongoing tensions in the Middle East have led airlines including Emirates, Etihad and Qatar  to cut flights, contributing to hundreds of cancellations.
