Five of the world's busiest airports for passengers in 2022 were in the United States, according to preliminary global air traffic figures.
Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport was still the world's busiest airport for passenger volume in 2022, holding the top spot it reclaimed in 2021 after being knocked off stride by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The strong U.S. showing is thanks to a healthy rebound in the domestic market. All of the U.S. airports in the top 10 have significant domestic passenger shares -- between 75 and 95 per cent domestic traffic, according to ACI.More broadly, domestic markets are recovering faster than international markets.
The London hub recorded the largest year-over-year traffic jump of the top 10, with a nearly 218 per cent increase in passenger volume from 2021, thanks to the lifting of restrictions in March 2022. For the first time in many years, no airports in China made it into the top 10 busiest list. After the United States, China is the world's second-largest domestic travel market.
