(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The Colorado Springs Airport (COS) said it saw another record-breaking year of people flying out of the Springs.
According to COS, 2024 ended with 1,239,094 people flying, an increase of 5% and breaking the record set in 2023 that broke a record from 1999.
“It’s no secret that the airport had a strong year last year, and we continue to exceed our enplanement numbers. It’s a fantastic way to close out the year, and with new flights being added, we’re forecasting similar success for 2025,” said Greg Phillips, the Director of Aviation.
COS also announced its first international direct flight to Cancun with Southwest Airlines and Allegiant Airlines announced they would return to COS in February 2025 with three new routes. COS is set to finish construction on a new Federal Inspection Services facility in June.
COS’s concourse modernization project, ElevateCOS, completed the first two phases and is advancing to phase three of the project in 2025.
