"The beginning of this week signaled the start of summer, where we typically see an increase in air travel. The United States and Europe continue to move closer to pre-pandemic travel levels, down about 15% from 2019 but continuing to exceed 2021 traffic. Commercial airline traffic in China continues to grow closer to levels in prior years with an average daily flight count of 13,382."
