ORLANDO, FL. – The first six months of 2018 are in the history books and Orlando International Airport (MCO) continues to shatter passenger traffic records. The good news is a direct reflection of Orlando and the Central Florida region’s ability to attract large national conventions, exciting new attractions at area theme parks and
competitive airfares. This year, both domestic and international traffic are up about 6.7 percent combined bringing the total number of travelers to 24.1 million.
“Along with substantial increases in spring break and summer travelers, we can also thank our increases in air service, both foreign and domestic, for our record breaking first half numbers,” says Phil Brown, Chief Executive Officer of the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority. “Orlando International has seen nearly seven percent overall growth, which puts us on track to top 47 million annual passengers by the end of the year.”
For the first six months of 2018, MCO has increased domestic air service by 1.2 million seats and international service by 355,000 seats into and out of the market. On a rolling 12-month basis, overall passenger traffic is up 6.97 percent to 46,127,810 total passengers at MCO. (a new record)

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.
