Passenger traffic year-to-date surpassed the 40-million mark.

Singapore Changi Airport registered its highest number of passengers for the month of October when 4.27 million movements were recorded last month, 10.0% more than in the same period last year.

At the same time, Changi handled 27,600 flight movements, an increase of 5.2% over October 2011. Passenger traffic to and from the Middle East continued its upward trend with the region contributing double-digit growth every month this year. Traffic to and from traditional growth regions such as Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia and Southwest Pacific also increased by double-digits, accentuating Changi Airport’s status as a major Asia-Pacific air hub.

Year-to-date, passenger traffic at Changi Airport has grown 9.9% to 41.9 million, surpassing the 40-million mark. If traffic for November and December remains
unchanged compared to last year, Changi would end 2012 with more than 50 million passenger movements. Aircraft movements for the January-October 2012 period totalled 268,000, an increase of 8.1%.

Airfreight movements in October declined 8.0% year-on-year to 150,000 tonnes. For the January to October 2012 period, Changi Airport handled 1.50 million tonnes of cargo, 2.4% less than the same period in 2011.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
