Annual Enplaned Passengers per Gate Approach The first approach, as shown in Figure 18, uses the current ratio of annual enplaned passengers per gate, adjusted for forecast changes in fleet mix and annual load factors. This methodology assumes that the pattern of gate utilization will remain relatively stable over the forecast period.

, thus the factor would increase from 94,400 enplaned passengers per gate (2008 data when 36 gates were in use) to 97,500 for 2010, and 102,600 enplaned passengers per gate by the end of the forecast period without any further increase in the number of daily departures per gate.

For most airports that assume increasing gate utilization, the departures per gate approach will result in a demand for fewer gates than the annual enplaned passengers per gate approach. The model also provides an average of the two methods.

For example, while the total number of baggage carts required for a flight are a function of design hour passengers (and their bags) , the number of carts staged at any one time are generally based on the size of the aircraft.
