OIA on the upswing

   Upward momentum is accelerating at Orlando International Airport, where the number of airline passengers was up nearly 8 percent in October compared with the same month last year, according to this report.
   The monthly improvement in airline traffic was the sixth in a row for OIA, following two years of mostly declining passenger counts. The airport recorded 2.88 million passengers either coming or going in October, compared with 2.67 million in October 2009 — a 7.9 percent increase.
   Both domestic and international traffic showed robust growth in October: the number of domestic passengers rose 7.7 percent, while international traffic (a much smaller share of the total) was up 10.3 percent.
