According to FAA figures, BWI was the nation’s 33rd busiest airport in 2006, climbing three spots from its 2005 ranking. The Baltimore Examiner reports that even though there were fewer flights in 2006 vs. 2005, a record number of passengers traveled to and from Baltimore.

Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport again ranked at the busiest. Dulles fell to No. 14 (previously at No. 10) and Reagan National ranked No. 41.
