Halifax Stanfield processed 34,769 metric tonnes of cargo in 2021, an increase of 5.4 percent from 2020. The value of exports in 2021 was C$496 million ($397 million), up 6.3 percent from the previous year.
Recovery is expected to continue as exports remain strong, new carriers enter the market, and the new Halifax Stanfield Air Cargo Logistics Park (ACLP) begins operations.
“The Covid-19 pandemic has certainly underscored the importance of air cargo to global supply chains,” says Joyce Carter, President & CEO, Halifax International Airport Authority (HIAA). “Air cargo has supported our collective fight against Covid-19 through deliveries of PPE and vaccines, maintained local jobs through exports of Nova Scotia products, and aided our communities through efficient transport of e-commerce orders. In every instance, air cargo has played a critical role in moving important goods to and from our region.”
