Companies in the Passenger Air Transport have faced a difficult few years. Their performance was hit hard by the travel restriction imposed after the COVID-19 outbreak, and revenue and passenger numbers have struggled to recover ever since. Many airlines faced financial challenges at the height of the pandemic, given flights were grounded for months, with some requiring government bailouts to stay afloat. This crisis resulted in job losses, reduced flight frequencies and route cancellations, affecting the industry's structure. While vaccination efforts and easing restrictions provided some relief, the industry continues to grapple with uncertainty, including geopolitical challenges and changing passenger preferences.
