Record-Breaking Passenger Numbers at SRQ: March 2025 Marks Busiest Month in Airport History

For the month of March 597,796 passengers traveled through Sarasota Bradenton International Airport, compared to 553,521 passengers in March 2024. This is an 8% increase and the highest number of passengers per month in the entire history of SRQ. During the initial three months of the 2025 calendar year, SRQ experienced a 1.1% growth in passenger traffic when compared to the corresponding period in 2024.

“It is exciting to see the airport break an all-time passenger record for the most passengers served in a month. The recent opening of our new 5-gate Concourse A in January, along with the introduction of nine new nonstop destinations this year, is contributing to a recovery in passenger growth following a minor setback due to Hurricane Milton. Based on currently scheduled future flights, we anticipate seeing positive increases in passenger numbers for the remainder of 2025," stated Rick Piccolo, President, and CEO of the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport. 

SRQ is proud to serve 11 airlines offering 68 nonstop destinations. Please visit flysrq.com for additional flight information.
