KEY: R = revised.
a Total performed includes
scheduled departures performed minus those scheduled departures that did not
occur plus unscheduled service.
b The number of persons
receiving air transportation from an air carrier for which renumeration is
received by the carrier, excluding persons receiving reduced rate charges,
such as air carrier employees, infants, and others (except ministers of
religion, elderly individuals, and handicapped individuals).
c The number of short tons of
freight transported by an air carrier aboard an aircraft.
NOTES
Data are for all scheduled and nonscheduled service by large
certificated U.S. air carriers at all airports served within the 50 states,
the District of Columbia, and other U.S. areas designated by the Federal
Aviation Administration. Not all
scheduled service is actually performed.
Moreover, for several years, total performed departures exceed total
scheduled departures because nonscheduled departures are included in the
totals. Prior to 1993, all scheduled
and some nonscheduled enplanements for certificated air carriers were
included; no enplanements were included for air carriers offering charter
service only. Prior to 1990, freight
includes both freight and express shipments, and mail includes priority and
nonpriority U.S. mail and foreign mail; beginning in 1990, only aggregate
numbers are reported.
Large certificated air carriers operate aircraft with seating
capacity of more than 60 seats or a maximum payload capacity of more than
18,000 pounds and hold Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity
issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation authorizing the performance
of air transportation. Data for
commuter, intrastate, and foreign-flag air carriers are not included.
Air traffic hubs are designated as geographical areas based on
the percentage of total passengers enplaned in the area. A hub may have more than one airport in it.
(This definition of hub should not be confused with the definition used by
the airlines in describing their "hub-and-spoke" route structures)
Individual communities fall into four hub classifications as determined by
each community's percentage of total enplaned revenue passengers in all
services and all operations of U.S. certificated route carriers within the 50
states, the District of Columbia, and other U.S. areas. Classifications are based on the percentage
of total enplaned revenue passengers for each year according to the
following: one percent or more = large, 0.25 to 0.9999 percent = medium, 0.05
to 0.249 percent = small, less than 0.05 = nonhub.
Data, include determination of airports' hub designations
