THE PANDEMIC DUE TO THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) has transformed the world drastically, leaving impacts that are likely to linger on most industries even when the pandemic is over but every industry is drafting new ways to move forward and sustain itself. The aviation industry, which remains among the most impacted industry, is also coming up with new models as innovation seems to be the survival tactic in this post-COVID-19 world.
Even though some countries are beginning to reopen their borders and air travel is looking at ways to tentatively resume, IATA’s (International Air Transport Association) figures predict that demand for air travel is not likely to reach 2019 levels again at least till 2024. The ongoing threat of ‘second waves’ and further localised lockdowns is an additional uncertainty that is hanging on the industry’s head.
In a media interaction recently, Cesar Pereira, Vice President, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa), Embraer Commercial Aviation offered a few suggestions that he thinks the airlines need to focus upon.

TRUMP'S VICTORY: WHAT WILL IT UNFOLD FOR INDIA
For India, one of the most significant aspects of Trump's return will be his approach to China.
