According to OAG, the busiest airports in the world are currently in London and Dubai — that also happens to be the most popular route requested by AIRINC clients!  We pulled some fun facts from our Airfare Database.  

The most expensive airfares collected by AIRINC are:

  • USD 35,649 to fly Business Class from Georgetown, Guyana to Cape Town, South Africa
  • USD 15,696 to fly Economy Class from Atyrau, Kazakhstan to Bogota, Colombia

What is the longest direct flight?

  • Singapore to New York City -- it's a journey of 15,339 km that will keep you in the air for 1,140 minutes (19 hours).
  • During this flight, you would have time to watch the whole Lord of the Rings trilogy — twice!

Trying to support a more sustainable travel program?

For this flight, the database reports, you could plant:

  • 17 trees to offset the 9,400 kg of carbon for a Business Class ticket
  • 8.9 trees for the 4,900 kg of carbon for an Economy Class ticket

How does AIRINC collect airfares?

We use an API and feed this data into our proprietary machine learning tool; using AI, our tool produces the most reliable airfare allowances to support your Mobility program. We collect over 20 million airfares a year! For more than a decade, we've been providing exceptional airfare allowances. That's a lot of frequent flyer miles! Read more here.

What Clients are saying about the Airfare Database

“Now that the program has been in place for 2+ years, the employees are able to budget and plan their travel responsibly. They’ve expressed an appreciation for the flexibility of the cash allowance. Since we have this new approach, the team manages fewer exceptions. This means less burden for Talent Deployment and the relocation provider.” – AbbVie

“We have been able to lower spend on home leave significantly.” – Member of the Fortune Global 500
