Burlington, Vermont - November 18, 2009
Ridership at Burlington International Airport continues to slide.
Airport officials say BTV saw a 10 percent drop in ridership in October. Coupled with a 12 percent drop in September, the airport's annual numbers are now down about six percent from last year.
Officials attribute the drop to smaller planes, which mean fewer seats, and the loss of AirTran service. BTV has hired a consulting firm to look for new airlines to fill those service gaps at the airport.
