Increase for air transport

9.3 million passengers travelled by air in 2004, an increase of 0.6 million passengers or 7 per cent compared to 2003. The transport work increased from 3.8 billion passenger kilometres in 2003 to 4.0 billion in 2004.

Except for a couple of years with minor decreases, the growth in passenger transport by air was stable from 1946 to 2000. The statistics show, however, a decrease of 158 million passenger kilometres in 2001. The decrease continued in 2002 and 2003 until the progress in 2004.

Private cars dominate

The passenger transport increased to 4.4 billion journeys and 58.2 billion passenger kilometres in 2004. This was an increase of 0.7 and 1.6 per cent respectively. Consequently, the average length of the journeys has increased. The growth in the transport by air contributes to this development.

Of the total transport performances, the private car constituted 51.0 billion passenger kilometres or 77 per cent of the total in 2004. As the average length of the journeys is somewhat shorter for the private cars compared with the average figure for the other modes of transport, the private cars constituted as much as 81 per cent of all journeys.
