As the country's key gateway to the world, Auckland Airport navigated through the challenge of an ongoing soft recovery in travel volumes, largely affected by global aircraft fleet shortages, decreased airline capacity, and a subdued domestic economy. Overall, the number of passengers travelling through Auckland Airport in the 2025 financial year rose 1% over the previous year, with international passenger numbers experiencing an uplift of 3% year-on-year to 9.6 million (excluding transits) while domestic travel movements were flat on FY24 volumes with 8.4 million passenger numbers. The company remains confident that travel will continue to recover, with ongoing positive feedback from international airlines about New Zealand's desirability as a destination and strong outbound travel demand from Kiwis. Enhancements in infrastructure and airport operations boosted resilience and delivered improvements in the customer experience, supported by strong collaboration between Auckland Airport operations and border agencies, aviation security, airlines, and ground handlers. The company's financial results for the 2025 financial year were positive, with revenues increasing by 12% to $1,004.7 million and EBITDAFI increasing by 14% to $701.1 million. Reported profit after tax increased to $420.7 million, and underlying profit after tax was up by $33.8 million (12%) to $310.4 million. Auckland Airport also announced a final dividend for the 2025 financial year of 7 cents per share, with the total distribution for the year equating to a 71.9% payout of underlying profit.

Auckland Airport reported an underlying net profit after tax of $310.4 million for the 2025 financial year, an improvement of $33.8 million compared with the prior year.
