How often do commercial flights go-around? I've seen many references here to a flight going around, and YouTube is filled with videos of it happening, but I don't recall ever having been on a commercial flight that had an aborted landing. It might have happened when I flew as a small child, but, having been really, really excited to fly, I think I'd have remembered that.

How often do commercial flights actually abort a landing and have to make another attempt?

I'm primarily curious about US statistics, but non-US would be interesting as well.
As mentioned here:


  Go-arounds occur with an average rate of 1–3 per 1000 approaches.


Most of the videos on YouTube are of go-arounds because of weather. This is not a common scenario as many flights divert to other airports where weather is less severe.
