Effects of Covid-19 Virus on Air Transport

Abstract:

Through this article, we aimed to analyze the main effects of the global crisis caused by the new coronavirus - Covid 19 in passenger air transport services. Passenger air transport services were one of the first industries to experience the worldwide transmission of Covid-19. Even though the last crisis that also affected this field is about a decade since it ended, no one predicted the financial decline that this industry was going to go through. Major global players have adapted new strategies with immediate application, aimed at limiting the effects of passenger slag, transforming part of the fleet for passenger transport into cargo planes and seeking to operate transports, mainly at the request of governments, from Asian countries to all globe.
