Thursday, December 13, 2007 -
U.S. airlines carried 582.0 million scheduled domestic and international passengers
on their systems during the first nine months of 2007, 3.6 percent or 20
million more passengers than they did during the same period in 2006, the U.S.
Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) today
reported in a release of preliminary data (Table 1).
BTS, a part of DOT's Research and
Innovative Technology Administration, reported that the combined domestic and
international load factor of 80.7 percent from January through September was a
record for the nine-month period (Table 1).
U.S. airlines would carry a record number of passengers in 2007 if growth from 2006
continues for the rest of the year.
U.S. airlines carried 3.5 percent
more domestic passengers and 4.4 percent more international passengers during the first nine months of 2007 than during the same period in 2006 (Tables 7, 13).
In September, the most recent data month,
U.S. airlines
carried 59.2 million scheduled domestic and international passengers, 4.9
percent more than in September 2006 (Table 2). The number of domestic passengers increased 4.7 percent in September from
a year earlier and international passengers increased 6.5 percent (Tables 7,
13).
Top Airlines
Southwest
Airlines carried more total system and more domestic passengers for the first nine
months than any other
U.S. airline (Tables 3 and 9). American Airlines
carried more international passengers than any
U.S. carrier (Table 15).
Top Airports
More total system and domestic
passengers boarded planes in the first nine months at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson
International than at any other U.S. airport (Tables 5 and 11); and more international
passengers boarded planes on U.S. carriers at Miami International than at any
other U.S. airport (Table 17).
Flights Operated
U.S. carriers operated 8.0 million
domestic and international flights in the first nine months of 2007, 0.8
percent more than were operated during the same period in 2006 (Table 1). Domestic flights increased 0.9 percent from
the previous year while international flights were up 0.6 percent (Tables 7,
13).
In September, U.S. airlines operated 866,700 scheduled domestic
and international flights, up 0.1 percent from the number of flights operated
in September 2006 (Table 1). The number of domestic flights increased 0.2
percent in September from a year earlier while international flights decreased 0.1
percent (Tables 7, 13).
America West Airlines and US Airways reported
data separately in September because the carriers held two operating
certificates despite their merged business operations. They are now
operating under a single certificate and will begin reporting data jointly
later this year.

In other total system
comparisons from the first nine months of 2006 to the first nine months of 2007

Reporting
Notes
Data are compiled from monthly
reports filed with BTS by commercial U.S. air
carriers detailing operations, passenger traffic and freight traffic. This
release includes data received by BTS from 94 carriers as of Dec. 5 for U.S. carrier scheduled civilian operations. U.S. carriers' foreign point-to-point
flights are included in system and
international totals. To create a customized table for passengers,
flights, RPMs, ASMs and other data, including non-scheduled service, go to http://www.bts.gov/programs/airline_information/air_carrier_traffic_statistics/.
Additional
traffic numbers are available on the BTS website at TranStats, the Intermodal
Transportation Database, at http://transtats.bts.gov. Click on "Aviation." For system passengers, RPMs and ASMs by
carrier through June, click on "Air Carrier Summary Data (Form 41 and 298C
