ORLANDO, FL. – Building on the success of a very strong Spring Break / Easter travel period, traffic volume jumped to over five million for the month of April at Orlando International Airport (MCO). This is the second month in a row where traffic has topped five million passengers at MCO.
As of April, Orlando International has recorded over 19.2 million passengers for the year, which is a 20 percent increase over 2022. A large part of that growth can be attributed to a variety of airlines at MCO increasing their seat capacity and number of flights into Orlando to meet the growing demand from across the country.

For the month, international travel increased 30.3 percent over 2022 with 589,561 total arrivals and departures.

Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
