The given table compares the figures for passengers using three main airports in British: Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted in the 6-year period from 1998 to 2003. From an overall perspective, it can be observed that even though the three figures all have an upward trend, the number of people travel by Gatwick airport each year are the largest for most of the time.
The number of travellers using the Gatwick airport in 1998 is 36. 5 million, which was far more than that number of the other airports in the same year. Next, the figure increased considerably to just above 50 million in 2002, after which reached a peak at 69. 3 million in 2003.
With regards to the number of people travel by Heathrow airport, it began at 27. 2 million in 1998 and then peaked at 48. 2 million, passed Gatwick airport approximately 4 million in 2000. Subsequently, there was a sharp fall of 15 million between 2000 and 2002 (48. 2 to 33. 2). The figure then increased significantly to 45. 6 in 2003.
Analyze the rest of the table, it can be seen that the figure for travellers using Stansted airport started at the lowest point of 17. 3 million in 1998, but rose rapidly to 43. 3 million in 2001. The figure then levelled off in the last three years.
