Quarterly & annual operations reports

Q1 2026

• In Q1 2026, flight operations were down by 3% compared to Q1 2025.
• Runway configurations are used that can best accommodate traffic conditions. This can change as traffic levels and operations change. In Q1 2026 we saw a 1.5% point increased usage of dual runway operations (and brief periods of tripling). There was also a 3% point decrease in multi-directional operations compared to the same period in 2025. Learn more about how runways are used and what the different configurations mean here.
• During the preferential hours (midnight to 6:30 a.m.), there was 4% less traffic than in Q1 2025. This amounts to 271 fewer flights.
• In Q1 2026, 92% of operations used the east-west runways, the same as in Q1 2025. There is a regular variation in runway usage that can be attributed to airfield maintenance work/construction and weather/wind conditions. To find out more visit our website here.
  • Winds in the region are predominantly east/west, however there will always be some variation in the percentage of westerly vs easterly operations. The north/south runways are used when the weather necessitates it or to accommodate airfield work.
