13.4 million a year, Seoul to Jeju! 180 flights day... I'd put a fleet of A380s on it... ;-) Simon

in fact, not : the current system is frozen(too much work), and the next system will be CBD. It's a little bit sad, I didn't expect so much demand to the Canarias & Middle east from Warsaw in the early 50s, and now in the 2010s it should boom. But hopefully the future system will be more realistic. There are still adjustments to be made, though.

I missed the famous "Ponte Aerea" (SBSP - SBRJ) of Brazil in that list, then I checked out ANAC's site and found out that the number of pax transported each year in that route is of "only" 2 million...  :'(  The demand in that route in current GW2 is almost 3x that number!

There are a lot of bizarre routes from GRU: Shannon, Amman, Keflavik, Jeddah, almost all of the villages in Britain and even ex-Soviet cities in middle Asia!. I just couldn't seize my opponent in GW2 because he was able to expand through these unimaginable, bizarre routes that can fill 2 767s in some cases.
