Asia-Pacific international flights still hit hard by COVID

The Asia-pacific region remains hard-hit by COVID with less than one in four seats filled by passengers on planes that were still flying on international routes in March.

Figures released by the Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA) showed that just 1.1 million passengers flew on the region’s carriers in March or about 13.2 percent of the already COVID-affected passenger volumes in march 2020.

The association attributed the poor figures to the uneven progress of vaccination rollouts and a rapid resurgence in COVID transmissions in countries such as India.
