In 2022, transport by automotive accounted for 72.2% of complete passenger-kilometres throughout the EU, a lower of 8.1 proportion factors (pp) in contrast with 2021. Transport by planes made up 13.1% of complete passenger kilometres, a notable improve of 6 pp in contrast with 2021. Coaches, buses, or trolleybuses adopted at 7.4% (up 0.5 pp), trains at 7.0% (up 1.6 pp), and boats at 0.3% (secure in contrast with 2021).
Though transport by automotive dominated all through the EU, its highest share was registered in Lithuania (87.9%), adopted by Finland (78.6%) and the Netherlands (77.9%).
By way of air transport, Croatia registered the very best share of air passenger-kilometres within the complete efficiency throughout all technique of transport (40.4%), adopted by Bulgaria (25.9%) and Cyprus (23.2%).
Malta had the very best share of transport by coaches, buses, and trolleybuses (15.4%), with Eire (14.1%) and Hungary (13.0%) trailing behind.

Methodological notes
- The indicator presents the share of the efficiency by every technique of transport within the complete transport efficiency by all means, measured in passenger-kilometres. Passenger-kilometre represents one passenger travelling a distance of 1 kilometre.
- The share of a method of transport is calculated by dividing the passenger-kilometres carried out by this implies by the overall passenger-kilometres carried out by all transport means (passenger vehicles; buses, coaches and trolley buses; airplanes; trains and sea vessels). Modifications of the share for one technique of transport are impacted by the overall passenger-kilometres carried out and adjustments within the different means. Subsequently, a rise within the share of 1 technique of transport ends in drops within the shares of different means however doesn’t essentially point out drops of their precise variety of passenger-kilometres carried out. Extra info might be discovered within the information on passenger-kilometres by mode of transport.
