There are some serious internal issues in this article — take a look at the flights within Australia and the US, for example, several routes listed show way higher passenger numbers than this purported 'World' ranking. The source for the first 'World' list seems pretty dubious in the first place. The scope is inconsistent: continents are each formatted differently and some of the listings are individual countries. I suggest a major reworking here, the article quality is way lower than what you'd expect from a summary article of this type. I'll volunteer if I get some support, thanks guys. |

The busiest in the EU/EEA
Busiest routes in Norway
I added a disputed mark to the routes in EU/EEA. The Norwegian routes there most certainly has inflated figures. I tried to make sense of the Eurostat data, but they were quite opaque, so the error is most likely pardonable. There were some writings in the Norwegian press when the OSL-TOS route exceeded 1 million passengers (hereafter MPAX as the unit) in 2012. In the same article, OSL-TRD is quoted with 1.8 MPAX, OSL-BGO with 1.7 MPAX and OSL-SVG with 1.5 MPAX. So, if someone would take the time to actually get the verified figures it would be a good thing. Kjetil Kjernsmo (talk) 18:43, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Latest stats for seat capacity
There is a latest stat for busiest route in terms of seat capacity here: http://www.centreforaviation.com/analysis/the-worlds-top-ten-routes-are-in-asia-58178 This is however only for a 7 days period (Aug 29 - Sep4, 2011). The current stat is a monthly stat for July 2010. But i dont think its a big issue. So im planning to update the stats soon unless anyone disagree. ќמшמφטтгמtorque 03:01, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
Busiest air routes between an airport in Europe and outside of Europe: any shorter title idea?
see title. long enough. 77.12.89.85 (talk) 15:46, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- Doesn't sound like a good idea for an article. Very, very narrow and specific. Kransky (talk) 16:49, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
Distance column ?
The distance between city pairs is a relevant parameter, as noted in the lead. It can be added simply by using the GCM page (or similar) and the airport codes, for example New York JFK to Los Angeles is 2475 miles, and Heathrow to JFK is 3451 miles. The reference list will be quite long, and could perhaps be compacted using <nowiki>. If just a few people work the list this way, we can quickly add most of the entries, but I want to know what you think before I do some work. ~~~~
