Despite the economic downturn and an overall slump in travel, Denver International Airport has set a new record with 5.1 million passengers in July, making 2009's seventh month DIA's busiest month in history and bucking the trend of declining passenger numbers that started last fall. July's passenger total was a 2.2 percent increase from the 5,000,505 travelers who used the airport in July 2008. This is only the second time in history that monthly traffic at DIA has topped the 5 million mark.

"This is certainly good news for Denver International Airport," Aviation Manager Kim Day said. "We've been seeing our numbers drop since last October and it is refreshing to see them headed in a different direction. Although we still anticipate finishing 2009 down overall, I think that this is an encouraging sign and certainly a reflection on how strong the Denver air travel market really is."

Sorry for adding late here. That will be a great news for Denver International Airport. Passengers are the main source of Income and that can in future can add up good value in modernization of the Airport.
