RIC and KRIC: two codes, one airport
RIC is the three-letter IATA code you will find on tickets and booking confirmations for Richmond; KRIC is the four-letter ICAO code used in aviation datasets, including ours. Both refer to the same field, which our database places at 37.5052 degrees north and 77.3197 degrees west. Our database also lists Richmond International in the large airport size class; that label describes the airport's category in our data, while the traffic level in the opening describes only the movements we recorded.
What our own 30-day measurement shows
The traffic figure in the opening is our own measured data, so it deserves a short explanation. For 30 days our reception measurement recorded movements at Richmond International Airport, and the daily average of 1.7 is what came out of that period. An average smooths out day-to-day variation, so a single day at Richmond can sit above or below it; read the figure as context next to the live radar, which shows the flights of the moment. Our package for Richmond lists no busiest window, so the daily average is the only traffic figure we can offer for RIC. No airline reached a count in our 30-day measurement at RIC either, which is why this page has no airline section and links onward to nearby airports and the country overview instead.
