MUMBAI: India’s domestic passenger traffic has declined by 37 per cent since January 1, with less than two Lakhs of people fly daily, which takes traffic back to the volume handled in July of last year.
According to aviation observers, air passengers are expected to decline by an estimated 30% in the last quarter of this fiscal.
On January 11 – a Tuesday, usually the thinnest day of the week – daily traffic fell to 1.8 lakh, data from the Ministry of Civil Aviation showed. This is a huge drop compared to the traffic we saw in the last two months. From November 6, 2021 to January 3, more than 3 lakh domestic passengers boarded flights every day.
