Passenger traffic at T.F. Green Airport was down 6.5 percent in August compared with the same period in 2008, dropping from 439,137 to 410,788 passengers. The total number of passengers who used the airport through the first eight months of 2009 is 3.2 million, down 6.5 percent from the comparable period a year ago. Southwest Airlines, which accounts for more than half of Green's passenger traffic, posted a slight decrease in August, going from 216,839 passengers in August 2008 to 213,850, a decline of 1.38 percent. The figures are compiled by the Rhode Island Airport Corporation, the state agency that runs T.F. Green in Warwick.
