Record-Setting January Air Traffic: 23 Passengers per Flight, 370 per Day
The News Herald report of record January passenger traffic caught my eye, and it says volumes about the rush to move our airport. Do the math: 11,500 passengers departing per month equals 370 per day. With 16 departing flights per day, the average flight carries 23 passengers.
When the 2002 annual traffic (171,000 enplaned) goes through the calculator, I get 468 per day and 29 per flight...
Is this an operation that needs $250 Million in new facilities??
