Back to Flight Tracking
"The past week has brought positive news in commercial flight traffic across the board. The US and Europe are inching closer to 2019 levels, both only about 14% down from the same week in 2019. After a rough couple of months, commercial airline traffic in China is also starting to pick back up, with average flights per day up 28% in the last week alone."
