Methodological explanations
Domestic passenger traffic in seaports – the number of passengers for whom both the port of departure and the port of arrival of the sea voyage is located in Poland, including journeys made on passenger ships, cargo ships and ferries within domestic ports.
Passenger transport by maritime transport fleet – passengers transported with both paid and free tickets in international transport (from Polish ports to foreign ports, from foreign ports to Polish ports, between foreign ports, and passenger transport on round-trip cruises to foreign ports), as well as passenger transport between Polish ports (when both the port of embarkation and the port of destination are Polish ports).
Seaport – an economic facility located at the interface between land and sea, appropriately equipped in technical, technological, and organizational terms to handle maritime trade, as well as the maritime and land transport means involved in their transport.
