With a total of 1.004,261 travellers, scheduled traffic has seen a decline of five percent; the discontinuation of direct flight connections to Zurich, Vienna and partly also to London had a noticeable impact on this sector. Charter flight services with a total of about 598,000 passengers recorded a minor increase of 0.5 percent which could not, however, make up for the decline in scheduled traffic services. Miscellaneous non-scheduled traffic registered 10,393 passengers, 5.6 percent up from the previous year.

The total volume of cargo amounted to 24,509 tonnes reaching a two-figure growth rate of 10.4 percent.

Only 1,164 tonnes / 4.7 percent of the total volume was actually transported as air freight.

The total annual tonnage of airmail transported - 1,075 tonnes - has decreased by 78 percent compared to the previous year.The Deutsche Post AG now transports mail by road and overnight mail flights were discontinued at the beginning of the summer flight schedule.

History:

The origins of aviation in bremen date back to the year 1909 and it was just one year later that the first aircraft sheds appeared on the Neuenlander Feld.

However, the airport s actual birthdate is the year 1913. For it was in this year that the Bremen senate granted the Bremer Verein für Luftfahrt (Bremen Aviation Association) official permission to operate a flight base.
80 years ago flying was still an adventure, the airplane was by no means a reliable from of transport. This was the experimental stage of aviation. It was not until the twenties that airplanes became a means of transport. Bremen and its airport were involved right from the start - internationally too. As early as 1920, the Dutch airline KLM flew from Amsterdam via Bremen to Hamburg and Copenhagen. During the course of the twenties, a superb route network developed for Bremen. All the European hub airports of that time were already accessible by air too. The thirties marked the introducion of larger aircraft and higher standards, also with regard to passenger comfort. Bremen fulfilled all standard requirements for an airport, including four hard-surfaced concrete runways, a passenger terminal which was considered ultra-modern in those days and was referred to by the media as the Bremen Air Station , a night flight lighting system and a bad weather landing system (Lorenzbake). These features all contributed to making Bremen one of the most modern airports in Germany and indeed in Europe.
