The cargo figure just underlines what I have written previously regarding the "unsung hero" for EMA. Passengers may be just 7.3% of last December but the revenue from cargo must be compensating, if not more than compensating, for the lost revenue from PAX. Is there is business case for investing more in cargo and letting passengers wither on the vine?
It perhaps goes some way to explain why the passenger facilities are relatively dire at EMA - invest where you know you can make money.
