How do they fit all those people on the plane?

Nearly 1.2 million people traveled through Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers in March — the single-largest month for passenger traffic in the airport's 32-year history. That tally was also a 3% increase over a record-breaking March 2014.

But, surprisingly, the airport reported takeoffs and landings rose a negligible 0.5% in March compared with the same month a year ago.

“It's a real simple answer: Bigger planes,” says Lee County Port Authority spokeswoman Victoria Moreland.
