In 2019, DLH served 318,845 passengers, making it the third-busiest year ever and the most passengers in a single year since 2012.

“Thanks in part to the arrival of American Airlines in May of last year as well as our additional flight offerings from Delta and United, we continue to see passenger counts rise and average ticket prices fall,” said Tom Werner, Executive Director for the Duluth International Airport in a press release. “With three major carriers now offering daily flights, we look forward to continued growth in 2020, and a bright future full of more options and lower fares for every passenger who decides to fly local.”
