ORLANDO, FL. – With more than 4 million passengers traveling through Orlando International Airport (MCO) in July, the total number of passengers so far this year has exceeded all of last year. The summer travel season of 2021 continues to rival the record summer of 2019 at Florida’s busiest airport. The total number of passengers for all of 2020 was 21,617,803. With the July numbers added in, MCO already has 22,052,110 passengers for the first seven months of the year.
In fact, this year, MCO broke previous July records for the number of domestic travelers with 3.9 million, a nearly 142 thousand passenger or a 4.4 percent increase over the previous July record set in 2019.
Once again, the lack of transatlantic international visitations had an impact on overall numbers. While significantly more than 2020, international traffic remains down approximately 70 percent from July 2019 pre-pandemic levels.
Driving the increase in domestic traffic, almost every airline operating at MCO added seats to Central Florida. An additional 257 thousand seats were added into the market in July with Spirit, United and Southwest leading the way.

PAVIX: Proven Winner for All Airport Concrete Infrastructure
International Chem-Crete Corporation (ICC) manufactures and sells PAVIX, a unique line of crystalline waterproofing products that penetrate into the surface of cured concrete to fill and seal pores and capillary voids, creating a long lasting protective zone within the concrete substrate.
Once concrete is treated, water is prevented from penetrating through this protective zone and causing associated damage, such as freeze-thaw cracking, reinforcing steel corrosion, chloride ion penetration, and ASR related cracking.
This white paper discusses how the PAVIX CCC100 technology works and its applications.
