View answerThe Department does not gather the data requested.
The Department produces a Quarterly Aviation Snapshot which gives headline statistics on passenger numbers at our airports for the previous quarter. The CSO Annual Aviation Statistics remains the official source of passenger and flight statistics. The CSO collect and publish annual statistics which give details on the number of passengers and flights classified by arrivals and departures, and by reference to national and international traffic. This covers both scheduled and non-scheduled flights.
