“With over 40 million annual passengers, we are pleased to remain the busiest airport in the state of Florida,” Carson Good, Chairman of the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority, said in a news release. “When the pandemic first hit, many predicted it would take several years to recover. By continuing airport operations and construction of the South terminal, our board demonstrated confidence in Central Florida’s amazing resilience and 2021 turned out much better than anyone expected. I expect 2022 to be another year of growth for Orlando and the region.”
