NOTES: Data are for all scheduled
and nonscheduled service by large certificated U.S. air carriers at all
airports served within the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and other
U.S. areas designated by the Federal Aviation Administration. Not all scheduled service is actually
performed. Moreover, for several
years, total performed departures exceed total scheduled departures because
nonscheduled departures are included in the totals. Prior to 1993, all scheduled and some
nonscheduled enplanements for certificated air carriers were included; no
enplanements were included for air carriers offering charter service only.
Prior to 2000, air traffic hubs are designated as geographical
areas based on the percentage of total passengers enplaned in the area. Under this designation, a hub may have more
than one airport in it. (This definition of hub should not be confused with
the definition used by the airlines in describing their
"hub-and-spoke" route structures). Individual communities fall into
four hub classifications as determined by each community's percentage of
total enplaned revenue passengers in all services and all operations of U.S.
certificated route carriers within the 50 states, the District of Columbia,
and other U.S. areas. For 2000 and
later, hub designation is based on passenger boardings at individual airports
as designated by the FAA. Classifications are based on the percentage of
total enplaned revenue passengers for each year according to the following: 1
percent or more = large, 0.25 to 0.9999 percent = medium, 0.05 to 0.249
percent = small, less than 0.05 = nonhub.
