International air passenger traffic is expected to rise an average 7% annually until 1992, with Asia and the Pacific showing the fastest growth, an industry group said.

The average annual increase until 1992 was forecast at 9% for Asia and the Pacific, 7% for traffic to and from North America, and about 6% for Europe.
