The thirty world's busiest airports by passenger traffic are measured by number of total passengers (data provided by Airports Council International and BAA). One passenger is described as someone who arrives in, departs from, or transfers through the airport on a given day. Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta has been the world's busiest airport every year since 2000 whilst London has the world's busiest city airspace with 2 of its airports regularly found in the top thirty. [edit] 2009 year-to-date statistics The following is the ACI's year-to-date figures from January to July [1]. These figures should be read with caution as airports may witness seasonal peaks at a certain period of time, which implies the year-to-date statistics may not well reflect the whole year's performance. | Rank | Airport | Location | Code
