Thursday, November 15, 2007 - U.S.
airlines carried 522.8 million scheduled domestic and international passengers
on their systems during the first eight months of 2007, 3.4 percent or over 17
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 81.2 percent from January through August was a
record for the eight-month period (Table 1).
U.S. airlines are on pace to carry a record number of passengers in 2007 if growth
from 2006 continues for the rest of the year.
U.S. airlines carried 3.3 percent
more domestic passengers and 4.1 percent more international passengers during the first eight months of 2007 than during the same period in 2006 (Tables 7, 13).
In August, the most recent month, U.S. airlines carried 71.1 million scheduled domestic and international passengers, 7.0
percent more than in August 2006 (Table 2). The number of domestic passengers increased 7.1 percent in August from a
year earlier and international passengers increased 6.1 percent (Tables 7, 13).
Top Airlines
Southwest
Airlines carried more total system passengers for the first eight months than
any other U.S. airline (Table 3). Southwest carried
more domestic passengers in the first eight months than any other U.S. airline (Tables 3 and 9) and 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 eight 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 7.1 million
domestic and international flights in the first eight months of 2007, 0.9
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 0.7 percent (Tables 7,
13).
In August, U.S. airlines operated 937,600 scheduled domestic
and international flights, down 0.8 percent from the number of flights operated
in August 2006 (Table 1). The number of domestic flights declined 0.8 percent
in August from a year earlier while international flights decreased 1.3 percent
(Tables 7, 13).
America
West Airlines and US Airways reported data separately in August 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.
System Comparisons (Tables 1-6)
In other total system comparisons from the first eight
months of 2006 to the first eight months of 2007 and from August 2006 to August 2007 (Table

were up 2.8 percent.
Passenger
load factor, passenger miles as a proportion of available seat-miles, was up 0.8
percentage points to 81.2 percent in the first eight months
of 2007. In August, load
