A total 396,275 passengers used the Key West International Airport in the first quarter of 2023. March was the busiest month with 147,500 travelers.

Compared to 2022, the first quarter of 2023 fell short by 5 percent. Compared to 2019, the best year on record for the Airport pre Covid-19, there was a 27 percent increase for the quarter and a 25 percent increase for the month of March alone.

Passenger volumes continue to adjust industry-wide following the pandemic, rising and unstable fuel prices, pilot shortages and a softening in leisure travel.

“These numbers are on track with where we expect to be,” said Richard Strickland, Director of Airports. “While passenger volumes are still stabilizing, we expect to continue down a path of robust performance for 2023.”
