(Hanover Township, PA) – For the first time in 12 months, passenger traffic at Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE) is marching upward as the vaccination rollout and rescinding of COVID-19 travel restrictions has positively impacted the aviation industry.
46,596 passengers used ABE in March 2021 – a 4.7 percent increase from March 2020.
“There’s still a long way to go. As more people are vaccinated and the summer vacation season arrives, the Airport remains opitimistic that pent up demand for travel could result in busy months ahead as we’re seeing across the country at other TSA checkpoints,” said Thomas R. Stoudt, Executive Director, LNAA.
