Cargo volume totaled 13,175 tons in August 2024, an increase of 13.3% compared to August 2023. August 2024 operating revenue totals $26.8M, an increase of 11.1% or $2.7M compared to August 2023. The increase in operating revenue primarily results from updated airline rates for FY24. August 2024 operating revenue is composed of 47.4% airline revenue, 50.2% non-airline revenue, and 2.4% interest income.

The month of August 2024 included three pay periods compared to two pay periods in August 2023, which drives additional personnel expense in the month. The increase in operating expenses results primarily from higher personnel costs from increased headcount and wage adjustments, costs associated with APD and ARFF units, and parking management costs. Debt service funded by operating revenue decreased 9.4% or $0.5M in August 2024 compared to the prior year because of the application of interest earned on the 2013 bank loan, 2014 bond issuance, and 2017 bond issuance.
