Operating statistics, 2011 and 2012
Table summary
This table provides operating statistics for both scheduled and charter air services for 2011 and 2012. The rows in this table provide detailed information on scheduled and charter air services both separately and combined. There are nine column headers in this table. The first three reflect Levels I and II air carriers in both 2011 and 2012 with the units used being thousands except for the number of carriers included, which are expressed in full. There is also a column reflecting the percentage change in each value from 2011 to 2012. The next three columns represent the same data for Level III air carriers, with the final three columns presenting the total data for Levels I to III air carriers.
