Question
Hi,

For my study, I am looking for a database (if possible up to date) of all european (or even Worldwide) flight routes. I would need the names of the two airports it connects, and the airline company name.

Previously, somebody suggested the following link to me:
http://www.oag.com This does provide some products, but they are either very expensive, or do not provide a full download of all options.

I need to download the data, since I would like to import it into an excel file, and do some analysis on it.

Can anyone help me?

Answer
Dear Loos,

You won't find a particular website other than oag.com to give you all the data you need.

As an alternative, you'll need to enter each airline website and download the respective timetable. The problem with this is that you'll find different formats i.e. Excel, PDF and others and will require an extra volume of work to consolidate it to your excel database.

Hope this helps,
Best Regards,
R. Gomes
