Trips to China are helping boost passenger numbers on flights out of Birmingham Airport in a sign that the recession may have bottomed out . Business travel is also enjoying an upsurge, German airline Lufthansa revealed.
Business travel, especially in the automotive and financial services sectors, is enjoying an upturn following a late summer, early autumn jump in numbers, despite overall figures around 30 percent down for 2009, Lufthansa reports. And the Far East is proving a popular destination, with demand to China from Birmingham up by about 16 percent on last year. Lufthansa is picking up nearly a fifth of that traffic, travelling via its German hub.
