5 / 10 Positive MoM Florida Effect +1,625 KOPF + KPBI + KFLL Winter Season Peak in Florida January represents the peak of the winter travel season in South Florida, with Miami (KOPF +7.33%), West Palm Beach (KPBI +17.65%), and Fort Lauderdale (KFLL +6.95%) all posting strong gains. These airports collectively added over 1,600 flights month-over-month, driven by high-net-worth seasonal migration and corporate retreats relocating to warmer climates during the Northeast winter.
Post-Holiday Northeast Adjustment Northeast hubs experienced sharp post-holiday corrections, with KTEB (New York -24.31%) and KIAD (Washington -23.10%) recording the steepest declines as December's elevated holiday travel normalized. Meanwhile, Sun Belt destinations (Las Vegas +7.62%, Scottsdale +6.36%) continue to attract winter visitors, maintaining their seasonal appeal as year-round business aviation centers.
