O’Hare Among The World’s Busiest Airports

In 2017, almost 104 million people came through the world's busiest passenger airport. A year that saw significant increases across the globe.

For another year, Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport is the busiest in the word, according to cnn.com. The biggest reason for the airport's dominance is really one simple fact, he city is within a two-hour flight of 80% of the United States population of more than 300 million people. Beijing Capital International Airport came in a very close second with 94.4 million passengers.

Chicago's O'Hare, just behind LAX and in front of London's Heathrow, is the 6th busiest airport in the world, serving 80 million passengers in 2017.
