Canberra to Wellington
New Zealand · 20 months of data from Sep 2016
Flights on this pair are non-stop, but the aircraft usually continues beyond Wellington rather than terminating there. That is why the seat figures below cover more than this one pair, and why the load factor is given as a floor rather than an exact number.

Passenger traffic between Canberra and Wellington was last recorded in Apr 2018, after 52,050 passengers had been recorded since 2003. At its busiest the route carried 4,077 passengers in a single month, in Jan 2018.

How full were the flights?
Inbound load factor, read as a floor rather than an exact figure. Some flights on this pair also carried passengers to and from other cities, and their seats cannot be split between those journeys. Dividing by every seat on every aircraft that touched the route gives the lowest the true figure can be, so actual occupancy is at or above the line. Seat data begins in 2009, so this series is shorter than the passenger chart above.
