   SECAUCUS, NJ (DTN) -- U.S. airlines carried 74.8 million systemwide 
passengers in November 2025, representing a 2.9% decline compared to the same 
month last year, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics reported Thursday 
(2/12).

   The total includes 65.4 million domestic and 9.4 million international 
passengers traveling on U.S. airline flights throughout the month.

   The agency noted that seasonally adjusted enplanements fell 1.4% from 
October and 4.3% from record highs of June 2024. These figures reflect a 
cooling in demand after the peak summer travel season.

   Separately, International Air Traffic Association data for November, 
released last month, showed a 1.8% drop year-on-year in U.S. air passenger 
volumes versus a global increase of 5.7%.
