Hurricane, Slow Labor Day Drag Down U.S. Bizav Flying
Despite the dismal results, fractional flying actually managed to stay in positive territory last month.

Business aircraft flying in the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean slumped 5.2 percent year-over-year last month, largely due to the impact of Hurricane Florence and a slow Labor Day, according to TraqPak data released yesterday by business aviation research firm Argus International. The company had predicted a 1 percent increase last month; it foresees sunnier skies this month, forecasting a 2.2 percent jump.
