two.1.4) Short description

COVID-19 has caused widespread disruption across the global aviation industry and subsequently affected global travel trends. The DfT requires access to a detailed dataset which allows it to query the nature of flight ticketing data for journeys between the UK and individual countries around the world. This data will help the DfT to monitor the air travel industry and track trends in volume of flight tickets being purchased, consumer behaviour in response to travel measures and also aide the DfT in operational and strategic decision making.

The deliverable will be full membership of a data portal or platform which the DfT will be able to access through a named user account with access to the required data (outlined in the Specification).

The user account obtained through this subscription Service will be owned by the Aviation Statistics team at the DfT who will access the Service. Data and corresponding analysis, either generated from the Service itself or produced by the DfT from the data acquired from the Service will be distributed through appropriate dissemination mechanisms across the DfT (inclusive of the Civil Aviation Authority, which is a public corporation of the DfT) to meet specific user needs.
