The daily domestic passenger count has fallen below 1 lakh for the first time in over six months, according to an Aviation Ministry report. In response to low passenger numbers, airlines have reduced their flying schedules and frequencies across popular routes.

Meanwhile, countries such as the US, UK, Dubai, Maldives, and many more, have restricted flights from India due to rising COVID-19 cases in the country. This has also impacted passenger numbers, especially those of Air India.

Commercial passenger flight ticket sales dropped nearly 30 per cent in the month of April 2021. The situation for small carriers is even worse compared to big players such as Air India because of their outreach. Indigo is being seen as the only survivor in the market because of its expanded business.

Air India will begin operating its flight services from London to Mumbai from May 17. However, the national carrier will not be operating on May 18, 23, and 30.
