[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our perception of busy isn’t just about passengers. It’s about plane movements as well. If you have a similar number of passengers using a much larger number of smaller planes, that will feel busier. [/quote] In May 2022,as an example, National had 619 passenger flights/day, while Dulles had 404, even though Dulles was only slightly behind in passenger count- 1.9 million vs. 2.2 million at National (just for the month of May 2022). https://www.mwaa.com/sites/mwaa.com/files/2022-07/5-22%20ATS%20%287.19.22%29.pdf Obviously this is because Dulles has bigger planes on average, especially the larger widebody jets that can't serve National because the runway is too short (plus the gate areas are too small).[/quote]
