How this measure is built
- Definition
- Year-on-year percentage change in revenue passenger kilometres flown on domestic scheduled services within the region.
- Measure
- One slice of Revenue passenger kilometres ( form: growth, origin: domestic ) . Revenue passenger kilometres flown on scheduled services. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
- Limitations
- Publishers release on different schedules, so the latest period differs by region; compare regions on the same period. Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
- Verification
- Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
