Huntsville International Airport One of the Fastest Growing Airports in the World

Huntsville International Airport was the fastest growing airport outside Asia among the world's 300 largest airports, expanding 29.2 percent on the growing industrial business surrounding the Alabama airport.

Overall airline capacity is slipping or stagnant at most of the largest airports, based on aircraft movements, but the larger traffic patterns suggest global trade and its cargo transport service is advancing on a far different traffic from the passenger business.

However, Huntsville is the third fastest growing cargo airport in the world, trailing only Subang, Malaysia, and Beijing Capital in China. Huntsville International is the only U.S. airport in the top 20.
