		Chicago's O'Hare airport is on track to reclaim the title of “world's busiest airport” in 2006, at least when judged by flight numbers.
		The Chicago Tribune (free registration) notes that “for almost half a century, O'Hare held the undisputed title of world's busiest airport, taking over the bragging rights from Midway Airport at the dawn of the Jet Age.” But O’Hare lost the “world’s busiest” title in 1998 when Atlanta surpassed O'Hare in passengers.
		It still maintains a comfortable lead over O’Hare as the world's busiest airport in terms of passenger numbers.
