Passenger numbers soar
Business at Daytona Beach International Airport (DBIA) is
booming with the addition of AirTran Airways in 2007, US
Airways this year and more nonstop flights and available
seats from major carriers Delta Air Lines and Continental
Airlines.

more than 705,000 passengers in 2007 - the highest number in
10 years.
