    **589,409**). Wikipedia leftover / BTS **1,467,000** total passengers and
    **737,000** departing — do not mix the two. Official board leftover for the
    12 months ending October 2025 reprints **727,154** enplanements. Official
    Oct 2025 leftover **4 million** passengers since 2020 is a multi-year
    milestone, not a CY 2025 cell.

      treat BDL, HPN, or Union Station ZVE as this campus.
    summary: >-

New Haven, United States · North America
HVN is a one-hall west-side field three miles from downtown — modular check-in leftover, $25 Lot C / $17 Long Wharf, two U.S. names, and no ticketed-pax lounge — as long as you treat the live Avelo / Breeze page as current and the East Terminal as not open.
