The increase was driven by a 3.5% passenger increase in Colombia and a 2.0% increase in Mexico that helped offset a 1.9% decrease in Puerto Rico. The increase in the two markets was also driven by growth in International and Domestic travel. Increased passenger traffic positions the company to generate more revenue from passenger fees and landing charges.
