• An application that allows users to obtain information on an economy’s network of bilateral air services agreements (ASAs) and associated passenger traffic flows

• It is based on 2011 data and combines:– ASA information available from the International Civil Aviation

Organization or obtained through WTO Trade Policy Reviews– scheduled passenger traffic statistics provided by the International Air

Transport Association

• The Air Liberalization Index (ALI) devised by the WTO Secretariat provides a synthetic measure of the openness of each ASA.
