Biloxi man named Atlanta airport's 100M passenger - sets world record
ATLANTA (WLOX) -
Larry Kendrick of Biloxi boarded his plane in Gulfport early Sunday morning, completely unaware of what was awaiting him when he reached the Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport.
It may have struck him as odd when the Delta plane he was on received a water cannon salute as it taxied down the runway, or when he entered the airport’s terminal to find they had laid out the red carpet just for his arrival.
Kendrick was selected as the 100 millionth passenger to pass through Atlanta’s airport in the last calendar year, a milestone that has never been reached by any other airport in the world.
