Total scheduled passenger departures saw a 2% decline, with the volcanic ash cloud and snow playing their part in reducing air passengers by just over 17,000.
It’s thought that a drop in people travelling off Island is accountable to a reduction in the number of off-Island trips by Island residents.
Excluding travellers on day trips visitors stayed an average of 5.6 nights in the Island, whilst residents spent an average 7.4 nights off-Island.
