Especially during the Holiday season, PHL is a hotbed for Cargo Charter activity. Otherwise, PHL also frequently handles Antonov aircraft picking up AgustaWestland, Boeing-Vertol and Sikorsky helicopter deliveries. 

We're totally not biased, but Philadelphia is a great sports city. PHL handles opponents of the Eagles, 76ers, Phillies, and Flyers, as well as numerous college sports team charters. 

Special liveries are what gives plane spotting its non-regularity. Often, airlines paint aircraft in unusual colors to pay homage and respect to something that represent the airline. 

With a close proximity to BOS, EWR, LGA, JFK, IAD, BWI, and DCA, Philadelphia is a top choice for airliners to divert to with bad weather or any other purposes. 

Foreign dignitaries, the Army/Navy game, and a no-frills Class B environment attract military aircraft of all types to PHL. 

Philadelphia is home of a lot of businesses.
