Origin and Destination passengers, by industry definition, are those whose trip begin or end in a residence, hotel or business within the designated county. Roughly half of the region's O&D passengers are visitors to Southern California. (For example, passenger surveys show 61 percent of passengers are visitors at John Wayne, 40 percent are at Ontario)
