One really can't blame RIAC for the decrease in passengers- it's a byproduct of RI's dismal economy and the nation's laughable "recovery". Many people people leave here and seldom return, except for family milestones (and headstones).

RI is so desperate for census numbers they include college students! An average of 50% of Rhode Islanders who move LEAVE THE STATE all the while being replaced by immigrants, documented or otherwise, who are protected by "sanctuary" status.

As long as RIAC and the General Assembly continue to gouge passengers from the moment they touch down, the trend isn't going to reverse.

Until RI has opportunity and stops treating visitors and tourists as "outsiders", the trend isn't going to reverse; I'm a native, and still get treated like a tourist when I return- makes me want to return "home" from RI.

Farewell.
