Invitation to tender Regional Air Services in Norway as of 1 April 2000

Article | Last updated: 2007-01-25 | Ministry of Transport and Communications

VII Traffic information (guidance only)

In this chapter certain traffic and revenue information for the route areas encompassed by the public service obligations is offered.

The information includes:

Number of passengers and passenger revenues
Number of transfer passengers to/from the domestic main route network
Share of passengers travelling at fully flexible fares
Freight and post revenues

The figures relate to the periods specified for all tables and have to be seen in accordance with the traffic programmes and interline agreements, as well as the amounts of post and freight, actual for the said periods. Please observe that the figures for route area 3 are presented separately after the other routes.

The passenger information shows the numbers of ticket coupons and corresponding revenues for each city pair. Accordingly, passenger numbers and revenues will be related to the separate parts of the journey in case of transfer en route. The passengers’ actual origin or destination will in such cases not appear from the figures.

Passenger information is not published for the city pairs Vadsø – Tromsø v.v., Hammerfest – Tromsø v.v. and Stokmarknes – Bodø v.v., as the Ministry of Transport and Communications has been informed of services on a commercial basis on these routes. However, the total figures for transfer passengers, share of C-class passengers as well as for freight and post revenues include these city pairs. Tenderers are fully responsible for calculating the effect the withdrawal of the three routes from the invitation to tender will have on the tender routes in nearby areas, in particular route areas 1, 2, 4 and 5.

Tenderers are fully responsible for developing traffic programmes in accordance with the public service obligations at all times.

The tenderer’s attention is especially drawn to the fact that this traffic information is offered for guidance purposes only, and that the tenderers themselves are fully responsible for the tender budgeting, cf. chapter III, section 7. Accordingly, tenderers may not make reservations as to the traffic information.

Carriers may also find traffic information for all airports concerned on the Norwegian CAA’s web pages: (http://www.luftfartsverket.no)
