IATA has divided the world into three areas to streamline the management of international air transport and facilitate efficient coordination among airlines and governing bodies. This division helps in categorizing routes, establishing fare structures, and addressing regulatory issues specific to different regions. By grouping countries with similar aviation policies and market conditions, IATA enhances operational efficiency and promotes collaboration within the airline industry.

According to a recent quote cited by the IATA, "2.4 billion people flew safely on 36.8 million jet and turboprop flights last year." Some quick math (2.4 billion divided by 365 days per year) would give a rough answer of 6,575,342 people flying each day. Since not all flights are in the air at the same time, the actual answer would be something less than that, possibly between 1 and 3 million, depending on the average length of each flight and how many flight were airborne at the same time.
