BWI Marshall Airport, the D.C. area鈥檚 busiest airport by passengers, had a record fiscal 2024, capped by its busiest June on record.
The airport handled 2.6 million passengers in June, an 11% increase over June of 2023. For the full fiscal 2024 year, BWI Marshall saw just over 27 million passengers, up from 24.7 million in fiscal 2023.
BWI Marshall鈥檚 fiscal year runs July 1 through June 30. The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, which oversees Dulles Airport and Reagan National, operates on a different fiscal year. In the most recent comparable 12-month period, both Dulles and DCA trailed BWI Marshall by about 1 million passengers.
Much of BWI鈥檚 growth has come from the addition of international flights in recent years from both new and existing carriers.
