Interesting data but why limit this to international? A quick search produced data that the 10 busiest routes were domestic (and only one was in the USA). The busiest route in the world is Seoul Gimpo to Jeju. Followed by Melbourne-Sydney, then Delhi-Bombay (as most Indians call it).

That's not true. Most airport shops/restaurants/duty-frees are outsourced to 3rd party companies. For example King Power runs duty-free shops in Thailand. Airport gets only rental fee and/or small percentage of the sales. Duty free is a huge business but when it comes airport revenues only about 40-50% of their profits come from commercial activities (not just duty free) in most airport around the world. Pretty much half comes from the airlines.bangkokhooker wrote: ↑Sun Jul 08, 2018 11:19 ami thought u were critiquing my post but I see u r just adding to it!bolueeleh wrote: ↑Fri Jul 06, 2018 10:48 pmall airlines have to pay baggage handling fee, gate fee, customer servicing fee etc etc to the airport, if the airport didnt outsource these to another company then it is a very big chunk of the airport revenue, also shop rentals, landing fees is based on per aircraft calculations which varies depending on aircraft size, weight, number of passengers etc, not a lot of money, but gate fee is count by the minutes! when aircraft is late pushing back, airlines are penalised with hefty feesbangkokhooker wrote: ↑Fri Jul 06, 2018 8:13 pmnobolueeleh wrote: ↑Fri Jul 06, 2018 6:58 pmairport make money from shop rentals, baggage handling, cargo handling, catering and wait for it........... now a days security screening, since 911bangkokhooker wrote: ↑Fri Jul 06, 2018 9:31 am airports make more money from duty free than landing charges
