International travel resurgent at LAX, with nearly 100% year-over-year increase in passengers

Los Angeles International Airport saw 1.8 million international travelers last month, nearly double the number from July 2021, airport officials said Monday.

The year-over-year increase is a sign of continued recovery for the travel industry, but numbers still have yet to reach pre-pandemic levels; in July 2019, more than 2.5 million international passengers flew through LAX.

Between January and July, the airport saw 8.7 million international passengers, up more than 141% from the same period last year.
