RPK – Revenue Passenger Kilometers
RPK – Revenue Passenger Kilometers or revenue passenger miles (RPM) measures the air traffic for airbus and aircrafts using the formula: RPK or RPM = P*D where P is the total of revenue paying passengers and D is the distance travelled in kilometers. Units vary depending on the distance measurement units used by countries. RPK can be regarded as the basic airline production. Also, this measures the passenger volume carried by the aircraft. Revenue passengers do not include airline employees, kids and babies who do not take their seats. Yield is also computed in conjunction with RPK to assess or compare airline market and revenue.
