Air Traffic Data Shows That the Travel Recovery Is Already Underway
There's hard evidence to support the idea that airline traffic is coming back and that passengers are willing to fly given the opportunity.
First, according to flight-tracking data from RadarBox, the average number of business-jet flights last week came in higher than the corresponding week for 2020 and 2019 as well. In fact, the 2021 figure of 8,787 flights is 11.1% higher than in 2019.
That's a key figure because it implies that business travelers are ready to fly. If so, it will be good news for commercial airlines that are looking to attract business travelers back as they reopen routes.
