Aviation statistics: data tables (AVI)

Data about UK and global air traffic, air accidents and incidents, and air passengers' experiences of security screening, produced by Department for Transport.

Proposed discontinuation of the ‘Air passenger experience of security screening’ publication

The Department for Transport is undertaking a review of the ‘Air passenger experience of security screening’ publication to ensure that it continues to represent an effective and proportionate use of public resources. We want to provide users of this publication with an opportunity to share their views on the value, relevance and ongoing need for the publication. We are interested in understanding whether you use the information contained in this publication and whether its discontinuation would impact your work or organisation.

Please send your feedback via email to aviation statistics by 18 September 2026.

Air passenger experience of security screening (AVI05 series)

AVI0501 release

The Air passenger experience of security screening: 2025 publication was released prior to the CAA’s annual Departing Passenger Survey reports, which contain information on air passenger characteristics.

To avoid pre-empting the CAA’s 2025 data release, we have delayed the publication of table AVI0501. The 2025 data edition of table AVI0501 will be released in December 2026 alongside the AVI01 to AVI04 series data tables.

We can confirm that passenger characteristics at the survey airports were broadly similar to previous years, so the absence of 2025 data in AVI0501 until December should not affect interpretation of the other AVI05 series data tables.

AVI0501: Characteristics of passengers surveyed in 2024 (ODS, 13.5 KB)

AVI0502: Levels of satisfaction or dissatisfaction with security screening in 2025 (ODS, 27.2 KB)

AVI0503: Least and most satisfactory aspects of security screening in 2025 (ODS, 80.1 KB)

AVI0504: Security screening reported queue time at the surveyed airports in 2025 (ODS, 28.6 KB)

AVI0505: Levels of agreement and disagreement with the statement "any inconvenience caused by the security screening was acceptable" in 2025 (ODS, 28.5 KB)
