Aviation Data and Economic Analysis
The Multi-disciplinary Working Group on Long-term Traffic Forecasts (MDWG-LTF) under the Aviation Data and Analysis Panel (ADAP) developed a revised set of long-term traffic forecasts to take into account the impact of COVID-19. In light of the substantial uncertainties caused by the pandemic, these forecasts will be reviewed annually.
Economic analysis
Studies on regional differences in international airline operating economics for the years 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 were carried out and a study for the year 2018 is ongoing. Based on the results of these studies, values of the global and area weightings were provided to the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Prorate Agency to establish prorate factors for passenger revenues from interline journeys.
ICAO has developed a Global Air Connectivity Index to look at the ease of international connectivity. This index is used by the World Bank.
Economic impact studies have been conducted recently for Dominican Republic.
