No intermodal statement and no enplanement figure stood in the banked article; both are supplied here at the size the carriers support — the claim in the airport's own words, the traffic at dated points rather than a fabricated series. The intermodal claim is the airport's own and prints as its claim: South Bend International presents itself as one of the few United States terminals where air service, interstate bus, and interstate rail meet in a single terminal, and it counts more than a million air and rail passengers a year through that arrangement. For a town twelve miles south whose residents reach the world through this field, that single-terminal fact is this section's point: Lakeville's intermodal station is somebody else's airport, and it works. The enplanement points, each at its carrier's date: 337,140 enplaned passengers in 2020; 345,768 through October 2019; the airport's own end-of-year figure for 2024, 451,184, up 9.6 percent, with 19.2 million pounds of air cargo that year; and the record month of March 2025, 50,602 enplanements, up 24.6 percent on the year, closing a first quarter of 134,624, up 27.7 percent, on the word of the airport's chief executive as the regional business press carried it. A full FAA peak-and-decline series was not extracted; the points above are the series' honest skeleton — latest full year, latest record month, and the pandemic floor — and no year is given a number it did not earn.
