~ Colorado Springs Airport (COS) has seen a slight slowdown in passenger air travel in the month of January, with only a 0.5 percent increase in total passengers compared to the same time last year. This comes after a record-breaking year in 2024 for the airport.
According to airport officials, the average load factor for January was 67.6 percent, which is a 2.7 percent decrease from the previous year. Additionally, there were 3.1 percent less seats available for travelers during this time. This trend is not unique to COS, as January and February are typically slower months for air travel across the industry.
Despite this downturn, there are still exciting developments on the horizon for COS. Allegiant Air has recently started service to three new destinations - Phoenix/Mesa (AZA), Santa Ana/Orange County (SNA), and St. Petersburg/Tampa (PIE). These flights began in February and are expected to bring more visitors to Colorado Springs.
In addition, a new Federal Inspection Services (FIS) facility is set to open at COS in June of 2025. This will make international travel more convenient for passengers flying through the airport.
