"This article analyzes recent data on air transport in the European Union (EU), both of passengers and of freight and mail. It presents data on air passengers transported, showing a marked impact of the economic crisis. The role of air transport in freight transport is less pronounced, as aircraft are an expensive transport mode in terms of tonne-kilometres only competitive for longer distances and relatively light high-value or perishable goods. The article distinguishes national (domestic), intra- and extra-EU transport, and also takes a look at the relative importance and ranking of airports."
