O'Hare was the busiest airport in the world for many years, but in recent years has yielded this title to Atlanta Hartsfield Airport. O'Hare flight delays cause rippling effects throughout the nation's airports, so the FAA made forced reductions to the number of O'Hare's scheduled flights.

For the first half of 2006, O'Hare was the busiest airport in terms of total passengers served. (Wikipedia) Passenger traffic (March, 2005-March, 2006): 76,510,003

The call sign came from O'Hare's original name - Orchard Place Airport/Douglas Field.
