Annual traffic growth rates for FAB CE States between 2018 and 2017 have reached record numbers, according to figures from the Eurocontrol Performance Review Unit, well above the upper forecasts of the agency’s Statistics and Forecast Service, STATFOR.

The number of reported safety incidents fell between 2013 and 2017 in FAB CE airspace, despite an increase in air transport movements of around 20% over the same period.
