## Description

What the region ships moves by road; what flies at Daytona Beach International Airport (IATA: DAB, ICAO: KDAB) is mostly flight training. The airport handled 772,170 passengers in 2025, its highest figure since 1997 and one percent above 2024, on roughly twenty percent more seats — helped by JetBlue's return in December 2025 with daily service to New York and Boston and by four new Breeze Airways routes to Providence, Hartford, Raleigh/Durham and Akron/Canton, giving eleven year-round nonstop routes alongside Delta and American. Movements, however, are dominated by the training fleet of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, whose main campus sits on the field. Cargo infrastructure does not exist here: no freight terminal, no freighter operations, no integrator station, only limited belly capacity on passenger flights. Freight for the area therefore routes through Orlando (MCO), an hour down Interstate 4, or Jacksonville (JAX), with intercontinental volumes going via Miami (MIA). The neighbour across International Speedway Boulevard explains the busiest week of the year: during the Daytona 500 the apron fills with NASCAR team jets.
