    Domestic travel was a key driver of this growth, with 629,000 domestic passengers in July—a 16.7% increase from July 2023. The airport has now achieved 41 consecutive months of year-over-year passenger growth.

    From January through July 2024, Ontario International Airport handled nearly 4 million passengers, reflecting an 11.6% increase over the same period last year. This includes 3.7 million domestic travelers, up 10.9%, and 270,000 international passengers, a 23% surge.

    «Our year-over-year growth streak now stands at 41 months,» said Atif Elkadi, CEO of the Ontario International Airport Authority (OIAA). «Airlines are expanding their capacity to meet the rising demand for air travel in the Inland Empire, a region that has seen substantial population growth. The continued rise in passenger volume is a testament to the airport’s strong appeal.»
