The aviation sector has been hit hard due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At a time when the sector was recovering from the nationwide COVID-19 lockdown imposed last year and the first wave of pandemic, it was hit by the second wave.

While the domestic air traffic in the country had touched around 3 lakh passengers per day by February-end, it was at around 70,000 passengers in first week of June.

Scheduled domestic flight services were suspended in India from March 25 to May 24 last year due to the lockdown. The domestic flights resumed operations from May 25, 2020, but in a curtailed manner.

Moreover, scheduled international flights have been suspended in India since March 23 last year. However, special international passenger flights have been operating in India under the 'Vande Bharat Mission' since May 2020 and under bilateral air bubble arrangements between India and other countries since July 2020.
