Passenger volume at Ontario International Airport (ONT) climbed to a new record in June, topping 652,000 and eclipsing the previous record of 618,000 set just one month before, officials announced.
The June count of 652,729, which was 16.7% higher than the same month last year, was the most in a single month since ONT’s transition to local ownership in 2016. The airport is nearing its all-time passenger record of 693,000 set in August 2007.
The Southern California gateway welcomed 615,355 domestic passengers last month, 17.9% more than June last year, while the number of international travelers was flat.
During the first half of the year, ONT drew more than 3.3 million passengers overall, an increase of 11.1% compared with the same period in 2023. The number of domestic passengers increased 9.8% to more than 3 million while the number of international fliers was 32.2% higher.
“With 40 consecutive months of year-over-year growth, Ontario International Airport continues to prove itself the aviation hub of choice for more Southern California residents and visitors,” said Atif Elkadi, chief executive officer of the Ontario International Airport Authority (OIAA). “As population and employment opportunities grow in the Inland Empire, the appeal of our world-class facilities, services and amenities is steadily increasing.”
