Statistical data set

Aviation statistics: data tables (AVI)

Data about UK air traffic, international airlines and air accidents and incidents, produced by Department for Transport.

Aviation statistics user engagement survey

We are launching a short survey to help identify our external users, better understand who they are, assess whether our statistics meet their needs, and possible areas for improvement. Whilst there are certain limitations to what we are able to immediately action, such as data availability, quality and commercial sensitivity, all responses will be taken into consideration. 

Users can provide feedback by completing the survey before Friday 7 February 2025.
