## 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 (Mon, Jul 1 – Sun, Jul 7, 2019). These are fixed calendar dates, so the mix of weekdays differs between the two years; compare with care. National figures are TSA's published daily checkpoint totals (tsa.gov). 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 (368 of 412 reporting airports); nothing is estimated. International arrivals are passengers processed by US Customs and Border Protection at the airports it monitors. Full definitions: methodology.
