February 2026 continues the seasonal contraction pattern across Rest of World markets, with only Sydney (YSSY) posting growth. Dubai (OMDW) drops sharply (-35.00%) as the peak Gulf winter season winds down. Brazilian airports show steep declines, with Belo Horizonte (SBBH) recording the steepest fall at -45.20%, followed by Sao Paulo Congonhas (SBSP -35.18%), as Brazil's summer vacation period continues to suppress corporate aviation demand.
Asia-Pacific Mixed Signals New Delhi (VIDP) enters the Top 10 at rank 6, reflecting India's growing business aviation market despite a moderate -12.66% month-over-month decline. Singapore (WSSL -13.15%) and Hong Kong (VHHH -14.69%) show similar contraction as Lunar New Year effects dissipate. Sydney (YSSY +7.13%) is the sole gainer, benefiting from Australia's late-summer corporate activity and increased trans-Tasman business travel.
