How we handle the numbers
- Every rule and number comes from an official page — a government body, an airport or an airline.
- If we could not find it on an official page, it is not here. We never write "unknown" to fill a gap.
- Quotes from airlines and government pages are shown word for word, not summarised.
- Tables and charts are HTML, not images, so you can copy them. See how to cite this page.
