OCT 02, 2003 (newstodate): AEA reports disappointing figures for the week ending September 21: an overall growth rate of just 1.4 percent in total traffic.
Within Europe, the market grew by a meagre 0.3 percent, while traffic on the North Atlantic routes dropped from some nine percent in the previous period to just 3.8 percent.
Member airlines' traffic on the Far Eastern routes provided little comfort as the the trend of recovery was halted with traffic down 1.5 percent in contrast to the minus 0.7 percent change only the week before.
