    HONG Kong International Airport (HKIA) is set for another record year after handling 2.5 million tonnes of cargo and airmail in the first six months of 2018, a 3.5 per cent year-on-year increase, mainly due to growth in transshipments.

    In June, the airport handled 424,000 tonnes of cargo and airmail, increasing 0.9 per cent with transshipments registering a strong increase of 14 per cent. North America and Southeast Asia experienced the most significant growth among key trading regions.

    On a 12-month rolling basis, cargo and airmail throughput increased 5.6 per cent to 5.1 million tonnes year on year.

    Last year, the airport became the first to handle more than 5 million tonnes of cargo and mail in a single calendar year, reports London's Air Cargo News.
