September 17, 2019 by Don Saint 0 Comments

Once again, Atlanta rules the world. At least its airport does.

More than 107 million passengers flew through Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport last year, making it the busiest passenger airport in the world for the 21st year in a row.

Atlanta also saw a 3.3% increase in passenger traffic, according to Airports Council International’s world traffic report, which was released on September 16.

Globally, passenger traffic increased to 8.8 billion last year, a 6.4% increase, while air cargo shipments increased by 3.4%.

“The World Airport Traffic Report shows that even as smaller airports around the world continue to make strong gains, the largest hub airports continue to grow,” said ACI World Director General Angela Gittens in a news release.

“There were 16 airports handling more than 40 million passengers per annum in 2008 and there are now 54.”

But Gittens warned of the impact of protectionist policies around the world.
