Hi there,

We need some clarifying questions answered here!

  1. What market? (World? Specific country?)
  2. Annualized?
  3. Short haul is defined as what? Domestic flights? Flights less than 3 hours? Plans size less than xx passengers?
  4. Short haul passengers only or also cargo?

Just like a case, you can't just jump into a market sizing without defining the box in which you're operating!
