Real price of air transport
$64.1 billionPAID BY AIRLINES IN USER CHARGES IN 2008. AVIATION INFRASTRUCTURE IS FUNDED BY THE INDUSTRY.
3.5xAVIATION JOBS ARE, ON AVERAGE, AROUND 3.5 TIMES MORE PRODUCTIVE THAN OTHER JOBS.
19thIF AVIATION WERE A COUNTRY, IT WOULD RANK 19TH BY GDP.
5.5 trillionKILOMETRES WERE FLOWN BY PASSENGERS IN 2012.
46 millionTONNES OF FRIEGHT WERE CARRIED BY AIR IN 2012.
Aviation and the environment
Aviation and society
689mGLOBAL AVIATION PRODUCED 689 MILLION TONNES OF CO2 IN 2012.
1,500+COMMERCIAL FLIGHTS HAVE BEEN MADE USING A VARIETY OF BIOFUELS AROUND THE WORLD.
< 3 litresMODERN AIRCRAFT ACHIEVE FUEL EFFICIENCIES OF LESS THAN 3 LITRES PER 100 PASSENGER KILOMETRES. THAT’S AROUND THE SAME AS A SMALL FAMILY CAR.
56.6 millionJOBS WORLDWIDE SUPPORTED BY AVIATION: 8.36 MILLION OF THESE ARE WITHIN THE INDUSTRY.THE REST ARE THROUGH THE INDUSTRY’S SUPPLY CHAIN AND TOURISM MADE POSSIBLE BY AVIATION.
LifelinesAIR TRANSPORT PROVIDES VITAL LIFELINES TO MANY COMMUNITIES IN REMOTE PARTS OF THE WORLD, INCLUDING ISLAND STATES.
EmergencyWHEN DISASTER STRIKES, AVIATION CAN RAPIDLY MOVE EMERGENCY WORKERS AND RELIEF SUPPLIES INTO DISASTER ZONES.
$200 billionAIRLINES PAID AROUND $200 BILLION FOR FUEL IN 2012 - THAT IS OVER A THIRD OF THEIR OPERATING COSTS.
79%AIRLINES ON AVERAGE OPERATE WITH 79% OF THEIR SEATS FULL - GREATER THAN COACH (60%), RAIL (40%) AND CAR (30%) TRAVEL.
80%OF AVIATION
EMISSIONS ARE FROM FLIGHTS OVER 1,500 KM.
70% +AIRCRAFT TODAY ARE MORE THAN 70% MORE FUEL EFFICIENT THAN THE FIRST JETS.
12%AVIATION ACCOUNTS FOR AROUND 12% OF TRANSPORT EMISSIONS.
$1.3 trillionFOR THE AVIATION INDUSTRY TO MEET ITS OWN ENVIRONMENTAL TARGETS, AIRLINES WILL NEED TO PURCHASE $1.3 TRILLION WORTH OF NEW AIRCRAFT
Facts and figures from
12% wasted fuelTHE INDUSTRY HAS BEEN ASKING EUROPEAN GOVERNMENTS TO IMPLEMENT ‘SINGLE EUROPEAN SKY’, CONSOLIDATING AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL ACROSS EUROPE. THIS WOULD REDUCE EMISSIONS BY 12%.
AVIATION WILL IMPROVE ITS FLEET FUEL EFFICIENCY BY 1.5% PER ANNUM BETWEEN NOW AND 2020.
Aviation industry’s climate targets:
1.5%Stabilise50% BY 2050, NET AVIATION CARBON EMISSIONS WILL BE
HALF OF WHAT THEY WERE IN 2005.
FROM 2020, NET CARBON EMISSIONS FROM AVIATION WILL BE CAPPED.
$26 billionSPENT BY AIRPORTS ON CONSTRUCTION IN 2010 - CREATING JOBS AND BOOSTING LOCAL ECONOMIES.
1.5 millionLIVELIHOODS IN AFRICA DEPEND ON TRADE IN AIR FREIGHTED FRUIT, VEGETABLES AND FLOWERS TO THE UK ALONE.
