IATA’s comparison of the connectivity levels observed in Q2 2019 and Q2 2023 shows how close to full recovery the global aviation industry has come. 

A number of countries in Central America, Asia and Africa have already reached the Q2 2019 connectivity levels. 

 

🌍 The recovery in Europe has been mixed, with countries such as Germany, Finland and Sweden staying below the 80% connectivity level. This can be linked to some shifts to short haul travel patterns, and also disruption related to the closure of Russian airspace to European airlines. 

 

🌍 A particularly strong performance has been seen in Africa, where the connectivity of a number of countries now exceeds that of 2019.
