Pasco, WA — For the third year in a row, Tri-Cities Airport (PSC) has set a new passenger record, continuing a strong trend of growth fueled by both community support and increased air service. In 2025, a total of 975,372 passengers traveled through PSC, officially making it the busiest year in the airport’s history. This represents an increase of more than 25,000 passengers compared to 2024, when 949,110 travelers used the airport. The continued growth demonstrates both rising demand for air travel in the region and our community’s commitment to flying local.

This milestone would not be possible without the continued support of the Tri-Cities community. Every traveler who chooses to start their journey at PSC helps strengthen existing air service, attract new routes, and support long-term growth for the region. Flying local continues to make a meaningful difference for the airport and the community it serves.

PSC’s airline partners also played a key role in driving growth throughout 2025 by expanding service and enhancing aircraft offerings:

“This achievement reflects the strength of our community and the growing confidence our airline partners have in the Tri-Cities market,” said Buck Taft, Tri-Cities Airport Director. “Setting a passenger record for the third consecutive year is a testament to the momentum we’ve built together. We’re proud of the progress we’ve made and are excited about what lies ahead.”

Airlines track passengers using enplanements, which count the number of travelers boarding aircraft at an airport. In 2025, PSC recorded 494,829 enplanements, up from 478,016 in 2024. December was the busiest month of the year, with 47,989 enplanements, reflecting strong holiday travel demand.
