WingX: European Bizav Traffic Has a Busy January
Most of the increase was in intra-European travel, with piston aircraft leading the way

Europe’s 2018 business aviation traffic is off to an even stronger start than North America's, with a year-over-year increase of 6.6 percent in departures, according to WingX’s monthly Business Aviation Monitor. This compares with the overall annual increase of 3.9 percent from 2016 to 2017. Most of the traffic was intra-European, with strong growth in piston activity (up 21 percent in Germany, for example) and charter flying up by 8 percent throughout the continent.
