AIRPORT NUMBERS FALL BACK TO 2005
1 Barcelona’s El Prat airport may have a new terminal but with passenger numbers
dropping this year to 2005 levels, it seems to be a long way from being able to fill its smart
new facility. Four years ago, El Prat was the European top-10 airport that was growing
the fastest but in 2009 it has become the airport among that select group that has lost the
5 most passengers.
According to the latest figures released by the state airport authority, Aena, El Prat
saw a 6.4 % fall in passenger numbers in September, taking this year’s total number of
passengers so far to a little over 20 million —a similar number to that reached in 2005
and far short of the 30 million target reached between 2005 and 2008.
10 Although the new T1 terminal has raised the passenger capacity of the airport to 55
million, the combined effects of the economic crisis along with the competition pro-
vided by Ave high-speed train link between Madrid and the Catalan capital has hit the
airport revenue hard. El Prat saw passenger numbers fall by more than 6 % in September
to 2,512,294, while Madrid’s Barajas airport appears to be recovering somewhat with a
15 slight rise in numbers of 0.1 % to 4,243,629. If the current trend in passenger numbers
continues, El Prat will be hard pushed to beat the total number of passengers in 2005 of
26.9 million and unlikely to break the 30 million threshold.
The only silver lining for El Prat is that the other airports have also suffered drops
in numbers, meaning that Barcelona is still the ninth largest European airport, a place it
20 occupied four years ago.

CAR SHARING, A REAL OPTION
1 Do you really need your own car? Many of us must be asking ourselves this question
as we fork out ever-increasing amounts on tax, insurance, fuel and repairs, not to men-
tion having to spend longer and longer trying to find somewhere to park wherever we
visit cities such as Barcelona and Girona. The fact is that most of us like our own space as
5 well as the convenience of hoping into our means of transport whenever and wherever
we want to. Nevertheless, in the current economic climate many of us are tightening our
belts and as a result car sharing may yet become a more attractive option.
Several local councils already run schemes in which interested commuters can re-
gister to offer lifts or take advantage of others who are travelling to the same destination.
10 Access to the programme is via the council website and registration for the scheme is free
of charge. At the same time, some commercial car-hire companies have not been slow off
the mark to see the potential that the economic downturn could mean for their business.
If you only use your car occasionally and your journey is not regular enough to coincide
with others, then there is a car-hire scheme similar to the popular Bicing bike sharing
15 scheme that operates in Barcelona. Users pay the 30-80 euros annual membership fee and
can use cars that have an average lifespan of two years before they are replaced, as well
as some ecological cars.
Apart from saving money, car-sharing can also have a huge impact on the amount of
pollution we create. Reduced vehicle ownerships results in lower greenhouse gas emissions,
20 as many people think more about each journey and use their bikes and walk more for
shorter trips. In Europe, car-sharing is estimated to reduce the average user’s carbon
dioxide emissions by 40 to 50 %.

Barbara LEONARD. Catalonia Today (June 2009)
1. Some people think car-sharing is becoming popular as a result of…

a) the low costs of tax and fuel.
b) the current economic crisis.
c) the difficulty to find a parking place.
2. Car-sharing is being promoted by…

a) town councils.
b) car drivers.
c) commercial car-hire companies.
3. If you want to join a car-sharing scheme,…

a) you have to pay a fee.
b) you need internet.
c) you have to have a car of your own.
S2 14 1 ANGLES GS 10.indd 2 12/04/10 17:06

4. Hiring a car at a commercial company is a good option…
a) because it is free of charge.
b) if you also hire a bike.
c) if you do not use a car very often.
5. Car-sharing reduces gas emissions because…

a) it increases the numbers of cars on the roads.
b) people use more ecological means of transport.
c) 40 % of cars do not use carbon dioxide.
