We do expect a considerable increase in jet aircraft activity, as well as parked aircraft, which will be on our East and West ramps. Based on experience from other host airports, we expect increased aircraft operations to begin 1-2 weeks prior to the tournament, and continue throughout, with a wind down the week after. This roughly translates to June 3 through June 21. This information is estimated, based on operations statistics from other host airports. Massport expects that there will be an increase in motor vehicles at the airport as well, utilizing Hanscom Drive, during this period. We will provide more information as it becomes available to us. Thank you.
