Passenger traffic at Port Columbus inched up in July compared with a year ago, possibly reflecting higher fares that could have dampened leisure travel this year.
The airport served 587,461 travelers last month, compared with 584,125 in July 2009, according to data released yesterday by the Columbus Regional Airport Authority.
Delta Air Lines, Midwest Airlines (which is changing its name to Frontier), Air Canada and Southwest Airlines all reported year-over-year passenger gains, while the rest of the airlines serving Port Columbus reported decreases of between 1percent and 10percent.
