Routes

The pairs of airports with the most occurrences on flights between them, either way round. Each route page lists them by direction, newest first.

A route counts the first aircraft of each record, by the departure and destination reported for it, when both match a single airport. Local flights that left and returned to the same airport are not routes. Busy routes are busy mostly because many flights fly them, not because they are dangerous.
