ENPLANEMENTS ON DOMESTIC FLIGHTS
Domestic Airline Revenue Enplanements (monthly data, not seasonally
adjusted)
Excel | CSV
Revenue enplanements, the number of passengers boarding aircraft, indicate
the demand for gate and luggage services. Enplanements differ from the
number of trips because passengers may board more than one flight between
their origination point and ultimate destination.
| Revenue aircraft enplanements (millions) |
52.82 |
47.93 |
| Revenue aircraft enplanements percent change from same month previous year |
-0.06 |
-9.26 |
NOTES: The current value is compared to the value from the same period
in the previous year to account for seasonality.
The data have been adjusted to have a standard 30-day month by multiplying
the data for each month by the ratio: 30/(actual days in month).
The data do not include international flights by U.S. domestic carriers
or domestic flights by foreign carriers.
The dramatic changes in the September 2001 data reflect the impact of
the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, on aviation, including several
days in which commercial air operations were suspended.
Alaskan carriers that began reporting T100 data in January 2002 are excluded
from this report to retain comparability for comparisons with the previous
year.
