Which European Country Has The Most Airline Capacity (Domestic + International)?

• Greece is fastest growing amongst the Top 10 this month, with an increase of 8.8% in capacity over last October.
• Italy and Spain also show notable growth, with increments of 7.9% and 6.6%.
• France and Portugal have minimal changes, suggesting a stable seat capacity and mature aviation market.
• The United Kingdom has a moderate increase of 4.2%, while Turkiye sees a 5% rise. 

Which European Country Has THE Most DOMESTIC Airline Capacity?

• Spain and Greece show small increases in domestic capacity of 2% and 4%, respectively, while Italy, the UK, and Croatia experience modest growth around the 1% mark.
• Turkey and Norway maintain relatively stable domestic capacity, with minor decreases noted.
• Interestingly, France sees a 6% reduction and there continues to be pressure at a regulatory level to replace air travel with more climate friendly trains on domestic French travel.  This downward trend could be a sign of things to come.

Which Region of Europe Has Most AIRLINE Capacity?

• Western Europe exhibits a moderate increase of 4%, adding over 4.5 million seats.  Albania, Croatia and Slovenia all have yet to reach their potential and are growing at a fast pace in the past year.
• Eastern/Central Europe shows a more significant rise of 17%, with an additional 1.7 million seats. Spain and Italy are growing aggressively into Eastern/Central Europe with capacity increases of 33% and 32% over last year and there is enormous potential for further growth. 
• Overall, Europe’s seat capacity will increase by 5.3% this month, indicating a healthy expansion in air travel across these regions.
