The number of passengers flying in and out of Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport rose year-over-year in April. The airport says on its website that a total of 119,921 passengers flew through Eisenhower National in April to mark a 32.5% increase over the same month in 2021. The increase was aided by a greater use of larger aircraft in Wichita by airlines, with the airport noting a 196% jump in the usage of narrow-body jets. That resulted in 16.4% more seats on 3.8% more flights in April. Passenger count through the first four months of the year was up 47% to 410,578.
