Seville Airport closed June with 886,407 travellers, an 11.7% increase compared to 2025. International traffic grew by 15.8% and now accounts for 53.1% of the total.

Seville Airport recorded 886,407 passengers during June, representing an 11.7% increase compared to the same month in 2025. The daily average exceeded 29,500 users, according to data provided by Aena.

Of the total number of travellers, 884,481 were on commercial flights, excluding general and executive aviation. Of these, 414,518 travelled between Spanish cities and 469,963 opted for international connections, making up 53.1% of commercial traffic.

The international boost

Foreign traffic grew by 15.8% compared to June 2025. Italy led the demand with 107,036 passengers, followed by France (97,880), the United Kingdom (83,612), Portugal (32,165), Germany (29,504), the Netherlands (25,769), and Poland (14,480).

The largest increases were seen in routes with Poland (60.6%), Greece (45.1%), Italy (44.5%), Belgium (23.2%), France (22.8%), and Romania (22%). These figures reflect the consolidation of Seville as a tourist and business destination at the European level.

More flights and more investment

In terms of operations, the airport handled 6,734 flights, of which 6,087 were commercial, an increase of 14.8% compared to June 2025. The Government's subdelegate in Seville, Francisco Toscano, highlighted that these results “are the fruit of the Spanish Government's strong commitment, through Aena, to continue modernising and expanding the airport's capacity.”

Toscano announced that Aena will invest over 230 million euros between 2027 and 2031 for the expansion and modernisation of the facilities. The plan includes increasing capacity, improving service quality, and adapting infrastructure to the growth of air traffic. “It is a strategic investment that prepares the airport for continued growth over the coming decades,” he stated.

For Seville travellers, this evolution translates into more direct connections with Europe and a greater flight offering, facilitating travel for work or leisure. Additionally, the planned expansion will alleviate congestion during peak hours and enhance the experience in the terminals.

Seville Airport thus consolidates itself as the fourth in Spain for international traffic, only behind Madrid, Barcelona, and Málaga. In the coming months, with the high season, it is expected that the figures will continue to rise.
