do marketing campaigns increase or decrease the route pax demand? Happens often, when I'm correcting routes, if I check 2 or 3 times in one minute, the demand each time is always a different number.

If you notice on the bottom-right of that graph there is a % figure that gives an estimation of the accuracy of that figure in terms of actual demand.  Most of the time it sits around an estimated approximate 95%.  So everytime you open that chart you'll see a different figure that's as much as +-5% the actual figure, so it'll range at least 10%.

The effectiveness of your Route Strategies Department determines just how accurate that number is.

The variations use to be small, around that +-5%.

Thanks for the answer.
