MESA, Ariz. — Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport continued its impressive growth trajectory in July, notching the third month in a row of record-setting passenger activity. In July 2016, 132,334 passengers traveled through the airport, a 7% increase over last July and the eighth busiest month on record. The top five busiest months of all time at Gateway Airport are in March, typically the most popular travel month of the year for visiting air travelers looking to escape the snow for spring training baseball, golfing, hiking, and other outdoor activities.
“July is a popular month for Valley residents to visit friends and family in other parts of the country. Allegiant’s low fares and the unparalleled convenience of Gateway Airport make it ‘Just Plane Easy’ to escape the summer heat,” said Interim Executive Director/CEO J. Brian O’Neill, A.A.E.

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.
