A 19% decrease may strike as a significant percentage compared to the year before but we're comparing apples to cucumbers.
The state of Arizona has about 80 airports overall, and Nevada about 50.
Pertaining to the cities where the Super Bowl was hosted at in the last two years, Glendale, AZ, and Las Vegas, NV, respectively, the number of airports available for jet use differs.
In the greater Phoenix area, there's 10 airports that can easily accommodate many more arrivals compared to the latter. In Las Vegas, there's only 4 with a combined parking space enough for about 500 aircraft according to the FAA.
With expectations for around 1000 business jets, 882 is not a bad number by any means. More impressive than anything given the limited space available.
🏈 Touchdown in Las Vegas.
🛬 We recorded 882 business jet arrivals into Las Vegas airports across the weekend (Friday - Sunday).
