Named Air Routes

Air routes known by a name that airlines and air traffic control use for a major flow of traffic. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the route a commercial passenger air route or organised track system. It excludes rail and sea routes. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members. It is one of the groups under the Named Airline Routes and Air Services subcategory of the Transport atlas, which has its own browse page listing every group and member.
