Jul 31, 2023 (newstodate): Summing up cargo results during the first half of 2023, Iceland's Keflavik Airport was the only Nordic capital airport to end up with growth in volumes.

   Performing with the largest deficit in volumes compared to H1 2022 was Stockholm Airport where volumes dipped to 53,202 tonnes, down 15.1 percent, y-o-y.

And if figures from Copenhagen Airport are cleansed of trucked cargo, the airport in H/2023 handled "only" 81,663 tonnes - roughly on a par with Oslo Airport...
