How frequent are flights in my area?

There are a number of factors that influence the frequency of flights:

• The number and frequency of flights will vary on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis due to differences in airline schedules. The airlines schedule flights in response to consumer demand. This is particularly the case around holiday periods.
• The runway in use at any given time will also vary, largely due to the wind conditions. The runway can operate in an Easterly or Westerly direction. Each runway direction has its own set of flight paths, and each flight path will affect different areas. As the runway in use changes, the flight paths change, and so do the areas affected.
