Airlines based in the Asia Pacific carried a record number of passengers and cargo in 2004 and the outlook remains buoyant for this year, an industry association said Thursday. The Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA) -- which groups 17 premium carriers -- said 117 million passengers were carried last year, up 22.5 percent from the SARS-ravaged year of 2003 and 7.3 percent higher than 2002.
