When it comes to popularity, BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport has the competition beat, as BWI had more travelers in 2016 than any other nearby airport.
Airport officials say that’s not a coincidence.
Miles ahead of the competition, BWI airport flies into the top spot of busiest airports in the region.
“I love it here,” traveler Bruce Hoegg said. “It’s my favorite.”
The Federal Aviation Administration reports that in 2016, 25 million people flew in and out of BWI. That’s more travelers than both Dulles International and Reagan National.
Airport officials say low fares are driving a growing number of D.C.-area travelers to choose BWI over the two Virginia airports.
