Santa Ana, CA –
John Wayne Airport established a new record high for monthly passengers
last month as 720,014 passengers utilized the Airport in September.
The 720,014 passengers represent an increase of 3.9% over last
September’s traffic counts. Also, commercial flight operations
increased by 6.1% in September, however, total operations saw a
1.6% decrease.
“Passenger
levels have remained strong into the fall”said John Wayne
Airport Director Alan Murphy. “It appears that the Airport
is headed for a busy Thanksgiving and Holiday Season this year.”
Increased passenger
levels are a product of the new capacity allocations set forth
in the Amended Settlement Agreement between the County of Orange,
the City of Newport Beach, and two community groups. The Amended
Settlement Agreement, which went into effect on January 1, 2003,
raised the Airport’s passenger cap from 8.4 million annual
passengers (MAP) to 10.3 million. John Wayne Airport is a self-supporting
enterprise, owned and operated by the County of Orange.
