Almost 22 million people for the first six months of the year

(US).- McCarran International Airport is on track to serve more than 43 million passengers for the year. Following a brisk June total of 3.8 million passengers, McCarran is 7% ahead of last year’s pace with a total of 21.8 million people for the first six months of the year.


A total of 21.8 million people passed by Las Vegas´s airport during the first six months of the year.

It was the busiest June in the airport’s history and was 7.9% ahead of June 2004’s passenger count. Of the five busiest carriers at McCarran, America West showed the largest percentage increase in June with 17.6 percent more passengers served than the same month a year ago. America West, the second-busiest passenger carrier at McCarran, reported 697,387 passengers in June.

That compares with 1.2 million flown by number 1 Southwest, which saw its June total increase by 4% over last year’s total. Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines, which for months has been flirting with a date in Bankruptcy Court, saw its June total drop by 8.4% to 217,378 passengers. The airline dropped four flights when it eliminated its route between McCarran and Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, reducing its presence at that airport.

While several airlines that trimmed flights from its schedule saw decreases in June, companies that added service more than made up for the losses. In addition to Delta, US Airways, ATA, Aloha and Spirit -- all small players at McCarran -- showed passenger reductions resulting from decreased Las Vegas service.

Scheduled international travel to and from McCarran was up 31.5% in June to 87,644 passengers. For the first six months of the year, scheduled international travel is up 28% to 501,100 passengers.
