A new report from aviation intelligence provider CAPA – Centre for Aviation suggests that latest data shows there may be some “glimmers of hope”. While it is certainly too early to call this a stabilisation of Chinese air travel, there is more normality returning to the domestic market. However, as CAPA acknowledges, “it will take more weeks to see if planned capacity increases are being met by demand”.
The first of a new weekly CAPA Membership series, the insight report looks in depth at forward or leading indicators of future demand. China, the world’s second biggest aviation market, China, was first into this crisis. It asks: are there signs of stabilisation there? And if so, could this provide a guide to other markets that are now in free fall?
