Aviation network connectivity
The absolute number of continental and intercontinental destinations that
can be accessed directly by passengers from major European airports.
Connections with stops are counted, indirect connections are not. As from
2004, the number of airports in the research has been extended. Data on
the second airport are also included in the table for Paris and London.
