IATA defines a monthly sampling plan for each airline based on schedule data. For a given region, airline, and class: all O&D pairs are captured to be representative of the later sample.

For DDS direct subscribers, IATA is the neural entity selecting the sample passengers via their ticket Numbers based on the sampling plan criteria.

For non-DDS direct subscribers, an alternative methodology is currently being designed.  

Airlines must ensure that they transfer personal data to IATA in compliance with any data privacy laws for the purpose of the survey. In case of doubt, we strongly advise airlines to consult with their data privacy teams or external legal counsel.  

IATA PaxInsight provides a minimum read of 150 responses per airline, region, class, and month. For Premium Eco and First, the sample size must be evaluated based on individual airline seat capacity.
