Airport and airline data is continuously updated throughout the month on a daily basis as a part of the Air4casts Fastpax package.
The distinction is made between the December and November declaring airports. For the guidance of users:
◊ the December airports will be fewer in number but early in the month will put a gloss on the results; faster growing airports declare earlier
◊ November airports are obviously more numerous and more representative.
