US Airlines Go Into Reverse in February

With almost 50% of traffic numbers available, the February pax numbers are down by more than (2.4%).

There are just three positives in the top ten; SkyWest is a shining exception.

There are few US airport results for February, but the latest January numbers for Atlanta show a sharp dip.
