China News Service, April 15th, according to Reuters, the latest forecast of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) on the 14th shows that due to the impact of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, the global aviation industry's revenue loss will reach 314 billion U.S. In 2019 it fell by 55%.
On March 23, local time, at Tulsa International Airport in Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States, American Airlines passenger planes crowded on a runway. In order to cope with the spread of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, airport flights are reduced.
According to reports, the International Air Transport Association had predicted on March 24 that the outbreak would cost the aviation industry US $ 252 billion. However, as the outbreak continued to spread around the world, many international routes were difficult to open. About 25% higher.
Director General Alexandre de Juniac said: "The recovery should be slower than we had expected a month ago, and the epidemic crisis is even more serious."
According to reports, this pandemic has caused air travel to almost "stop". Many airlines are grounded, and it is still unknown when countries can relax travel restrictions.
The International Air Transport Association has urged governments of all countries to urgently provide liquidity to airlines to help them weather the crisis. The association also warned that many airlines could not get funding or would go bankrupt within a few weeks.
