Flights is the fact table. It has 100M rows and three dirmensions, ariline, airports, and planes. This records flights for more than 10 years in the US, and includes the following details:
- origin
- destination
- delay
- air time

Query the demo data from Hive.

For example, find the flights that departed each year, by IATA code, airport, city, state, and country. Find the average departure delay.

SELECT f.month, a.iata, a.airport, a.city, a.state, a.country
FROM flights f,
airports a
WHERE f.origin = a.iata
GROUP BY 
f.month,
a.iata,
a.airport,
a.city,
a.state,
a.country
HAVING COUNT(*) > 10000
ORDER BY AVG(f.DepDelay) DESC
LIMIT 10;

Output appears as follows:
