Airports · routes and flights · the DOT's airline reports, August 2025 to July 2026

Routes and flights

Every airline that flies in, to or from the United States reports each month, for every pair of airports, how many flights it ran, with what aircraft, and how many seats, passengers, pounds of freight and mail it carried. This is that record, 43,033 airport pairs flown in the twelve months to July 2026: 10,827,354 flights, 1,100,032,989 passengers and 50,106,663,987 pounds of freight, from 2,128 airports on 293 airlines. Each route has a page with its airlines, aircraft and months; each airport page says where its flights go; each airline has its network. The DOT publishes three months in arrears.

Source: the Bureau of Transportation Statistics' T-100 Segment table (all carriers), which every airline holding a DOT certificate reports monthly; the latest month is July 2026. A flight here is one departure performed on a segment; a passenger is counted on each segment flown. Private, corporate and training flights are not in this table; the live picture of every aircraft the volunteer receiver network can hear is on the live map. Airport names and pages come from the FAA's airport file; airports abroad carry the DOT's city name. As data: each route's page has a table link.
