About The Airport
Located in one of America's fastest-growing areas, Tampa International Airport passenger volume is surging. The airport carried 24.5 million passengers for Fiscal Year 2025 and is projecting 3% growth for the following year, with nonstop service to approximately 100 destinations (some seasonal). Recent route announcements have included Avianca's daily year-round flight to Bogota and Delta's year-round service to Amsterdam. But even with that rapid growth, there remains plenty of unmet opportunity at TPA. Approximately 50% of our international O&D traffic utilizes other Florida airports besides TPA.
Tampa Bay’s diverse industry mix makes our community more balanced than many, with our strong local originating passenger traffic nicely complementing our compelling inbound leisure demand. Total local population in our primary and secondary international catchment areas is more than 5.7 million, easily placing the region among the top 20 largest metros in the U.S. Tampa Bay's business sector is strong, with seix Fortune 500 company HQs and 50 corportate inbound relocations since 2021. Visitors, meanwhile, are drawn by our wide variety of appealing outdoor activities with room to spread out – including 35 miles of America’s favorite white sand beaches.
