June 2014 U.S. Airline Traffic Data
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) reported today that U.S. airlines carried 68.6 million systemwide (domestic + international) scheduled service passengers in June 2014, 2.2 percent more than in June 2013. The systemwide total was the result of a 2.2 percent increase in the number of passengers on domestic flights (59.2 million) and a 2.7 percent increase in passengers on U.S. airlines’ international flights (9.3 million) (Tables 1, 7, 13).

U.S. airlines carried 373.2 million systemwide (domestic + international) scheduled service passengers during the first six months of 2014, 2.0 percent more than during the same period in 2013 (Table 2). Domestically, U.S. airlines carried 323.5 million passengers, up 1.8 percent from 2013 (Table 8). Internationally, they carried 49.7 million passengers, up 3.7 percent from 2013 (Table 14). See Tables 2, 8 and 14 of Air Traffic Press Releases for previous-year data.
Load Factor
The June 2014 systemwide load factor (86.4 percent) was down from 87.0 in June 2013, the all-time high for the month of June. Load factor is a measure of the use of aircraft capacity that compares demand, measured in revenue passenger-miles (RPMs), as a proportion of capacity, measured in available seat-miles (ASMs). Systemwide demand grew less from June 2013 to June 2014 (up 2.1 percent) than the growth in capacity (up 2.7 percent) (Table 1). The domestic load factor (87.4) was a record high for the month of June, topping the previous high of 87.0 set in 2013. Domestic demand grew faster from June 2013 to June 2014 (2.2 percent) than capacity (1.7 percent), resulting in the higher load factor (Table 7).
The international load factor (84.4) declined from 86.9 percent in June 2013 which was the highest June international load factor. International demand rose 1.8 percent from June 2013 to June 2014 but was outpaced by 4.8 percent growth in capacity, resulting in the lower load factor (Table 13).
For the six-month January-June period, systemwide (83.2) and domestic (84.6) load factors were at all-time highs, exceeding the previous highs in 2013. The international load factor (80.3) was down from 2013.
Month of June Trends
Systemwide: For the month of June, the 2014 systemwide passenger total was the second highest but below the all-time high in June 2007. Demand, measured in RPMs, was at the highest June level, exceeding the previous high in 2013. Demand has exceeded pre-recession levels every month of 2014 except February. Capacity, measured in ASMs, was at the highest June level, exceeding the June 2008 level.
Domestic: The June 2014 domestic passenger total was the highest since the end of the recession but below the all-time high in June 2007. Demand was at the highest June level since June 2007. Capacity was the highest since 2008 but was below the all-time June high reached in 2005 and the pre-recession levels of June 2007 and 2008.
International: The number of passengers, demand and capacity on U.S. airlines’ international flights was the highest on record for the month of June, exceeding the previous highs in June 2013.
Six-Month Trends
Systemwide: For January through June, the 2014 systemwide passenger total was the highest since 2008 but below the all-time highs in 2007 and 2008. Demand, measured in RPMs, was at the highest January-June level, exceeding the previous high in 2008. Capacity, measured in ASMs, was the highest since 2008 but below the six-month levels in 2006, 2007 and 2008.
Domestic: The January through June 2014 domestic passenger total was the highest since 2008 and below the all-time high in 2007. Demand was the highest since 2008, which was the all-time high. Capacity was the highest since the all-time high reached in 2008.
International: The number of passengers, demand and capacity on U.S. airlines’ international flights was the highest on record for the January-June period, exceeding the previous highs in set in 2013.

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 80 carriers as of Sept. 2 for U.S. carrier scheduled civilian operations.
Southwest and AirTran Airways are reporting as separate carriers with the exception of their financial reports. They have one FAA SOC (single operating certificate), requiring that they utilize the same safety/operating procedures, but they have separate DOT economic certificates, meaning they remain operating as separate economic entities.
Go to http://www.transtats.bts.gov/releaseinfo.asp for the complete list of reporting and non-reporting carriers. 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 https://www.transtats.bts.gov/TRAFFIC/

International totals in this press release consist of all U.S. carrier operations to and from the U.S. and from one foreign point to another foreign point. TranStats T-100 systemwide and international totals do not include those U.S. carriers’ foreign point-to-point flights. For June, U.S. carriers reported 139,792 foreign point-to-point passengers. For January through June, U.S. carriers reported 941,995 foreign point-to-point passengers.
Data are subject to revision. BTS has scheduled Oct. 17 for the release of July traffic data. None of the data are from samples so measures of statistical significance do not apply.
