Thursday, June 21, 2007 - U.S. airlines carried 177.6 million scheduled domestic and international passengers
on their systems during the first three months of 2007, 1.6 percent more 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 U.S. airlines carried 1.2
percent more domestic passengers and 4.9 percent more international passengers during the first quarter of 2007 than during the same period in 2006 (Tables 7, 13). These passengers traveled on planes with
average load factors exceeding 76.0 percent (Tables 1, 7 and 13).
In March, the most recent month, U.S. airlines carried 66.5 million scheduled domestic and international passengers, 1.0
percent more than in March 2006 (Table 2). The number of domestic passengers increased 0.6 percent in March from a
year earlier, and international passengers increased 3.7 percent (Tables 7,
13).
Top Airlines
American
Airlines carried more total system passengers in the first quarter than any
other
U.S. airline (Table 3); Southwest Airlines carried more domestic passengers than any
other airline (Table 9); and American carried more international passengers
than any U.S. carrier (Table 15).
Top Airports
More total system and domestic
passengers boarded planes in the first quarter at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International
than at any other U.S. airport (Tables 5 and 11); 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 2.5 million
domestic and international flights in the first three months of 2007, 0.7
percent more than were operated during the same period in 2006 (Table 1). Domestic flights were up 0.6 percent from the
previous year while international flights were up 1.7 percent (Tables 7, 13).
In March, U.S. airlines operated 888,000 scheduled domestic
and international flights, down 1.1 percent from the number of flights operated
in March 2006 (Table 1). The number of domestic flights declined 1.1 percent in
March from a year earlier while international flights decreased 0.6 percent
(Tables 7, 13).
America
West Airlines and US Airways report traffic data separately because the
carriers hold two operating certificates despite their merged business
operations. They will file a merged
traffic report when they operate under a single certificate later this year.
System Comparisons (Table 1-6)
In other total system comparisons from the first three
months of 2006 to the first three months of 2007 and from March 2006 to March 2007 (Table

seat-miles (ASMs), a measure of airline capacity using the number of seats and
the distance flown, were up 2.6 percent in the first three
months of 2007. In March, ASMs
were up 1.5 percent.
Passenger
load factor, passenger miles as a proportion of available seat-miles, was unchanged
at 76.8 percent in the first three months of 2007. In March, load factor was up 0.4 percentage
