New Legaspi Airport Draft FS - PPP Center

average day traffic of the peak month was computed to be 0.375 percent of the annual
air passenger volume.
Considering the prevailing flight patterns in Legaspi Airport, the peak hour traffic on an
average day of the peak month is about 57.5 percent of the total daily traffic.
The design of airport facilities is based on one-way directional traffic volume
considering the direction with the higher percentage of passenger movement. The
heavier direction constitutes about 51 percent of the total hourly traffic.
Finally, the design hourly volume is determined by adjusting the one-way peak-hour
traffic using a load factor to account for the utilization of available seats. For Legaspi
Airport, a load factor of 85 percent is assumed for better utilization of available seating
capacity. The computed design hourly volume is shown in Table 3.4-1.
