That’s close to 10,000 people every day of the
year flying into or out of the City of Miami.
That’s a phenomenal number when you think that
the
City is also receiving passengers on a daily
basis at the Port of Miami as well.
Most of the major airlines have hubs here, but
the most popular
airline for the past decade has
been American Airlines (AA).
AA flies over 100
different air routes daily out of concourse D.
More routes have recently been applied for to
new destinations so the schedule of
flights will
be increasing over the next few months.After the
September 11 attacks stricter security procedure
protocols were set into effect and this
affected
the airport more than most of the other
facilities that only accommodated domestic
flights.
Almost all of the direct flights from foreign
countries were rerouted to stop over points
before reaching the Miami International Airport
after the
new security measures started. None of
the major airports in America were willing to
take the chance on national security after the
tragedy.
Some flights are still available for
bookings, but they are mostly for government
officials, journalists, or researchers.
Everything that lies in or close to Miami is
being renovated these days so expect to see
major improvements coming soon for this airport.
The projected traffic increase that the newly
improved city is expecting will definitely
require a few additions to the flight roster at
the
Miami International Airport.
