The FINANCIAL — August was the second-busiest month in the history of Denver International Airport (DEN), with almost 5.4 million passengers.
A total of 5,395,910 passengers passed through the airport in August. Year-to-date passenger traffic at DEN was 7.6 percent higher than during this same time in 2015, with 38,407,046 passengers, according to Denver International Airport.
“As we close out the busy summer travel season, August marked the twelfth consecutive month of record- setting passenger traffic at Denver International Airport, made possible in part by the most monthly connecting passengers since 2010,” airport CEO Kim Day said. “We also saw an 8-percent increase in international passenger traffic, which received a boost from Air Canada’s new nonstop service from Denver to Montreal and Lufthansa’s nonstop service to Munich.”
A total of 193,435 international passengers traveled through the airport in August.
Mail, freight and express cargo operations saw 48,180,814 pounds of cargo in August 2016, an increase of 7.6 percent compared to the same month in 2015.
