Birmingham International Airport has announced it handled an increasing amount of passengers during September.
A rise of two per cent was reported compared to last year's figures as 969,407 passengers passed through the airport's gates.
Acting managing director of the airport Joe Kelly commented work has been ongoing to increase the popularity of the facility.
"Behind the scenes, we’ve been working on the airport’s aspirations to 2030 - to provide even more choice and ensure that BIA [Birmingham International Airport] remains the favourite gateway to the midlands," he said.
He added that the airport had experienced a busy summer as well.
With increasing numbers of people using the airport's facilities, some travellers may find it more convenient to book their airport parking in advance over the internet.
