How it is measured
The Fourth of July travel period is July 1 through July 7 (7 days). It is compared with the same period a year earlier (). These are fixed calendar dates, so the mix of weekdays differs between the two years; compare with care.
National figures add up every airport in TSA's FOIA checkpoint files, because TSA's published daily totals do not cover both periods; they run a few percent below the published totals. Airport and state figures add up TSA's FOIA hourly checkpoint throughput files; they count departing passengers screened, not arrivals or connecting passengers, so they run below airport-reported totals. An airport is included only when TSA's files are complete for it on every day of both periods (392 of 415 reporting airports); nothing is estimated. International arrivals are passengers processed by US Customs and Border Protection at the airports it monitors. Full definitions: methodology.
