Traffic at Yangon International Airport hit 4.6 million in the first nine months of this year, up 6.5 percent from the same period of last year when it registered 4.32 million, according to a Xinhua report.
The Yangon Aerodrome Company (YACL), which is the operator of the airport, attributed the increase of passengers during the period to the addition of new routes, mainly to cater to the Chinese market.
In the last 12 months, the airport has added two routes with three new airlines.
