Global Outlook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There have been minimal changes compared to last month in terms of the regions that still show significant deviations from 2019 levels. These regions include Southern Africa (-21.6%), South East Asia (-16.5%), and Eastern\/Central Europe (-16%). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The decline in South East Asia translates to a reduction of 7.4 million seats this July compared to 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a similar vein, Central Asia remains the fastest-growing region in terms of percentage, experiencing a 35.5% increase compared to July 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, North East Asia has nearly fully recovered and has witnessed the highest month-on-month capacity growth, adding an impressive 10.8 million additional seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Half of the world’s Top 20 largest airlines are currently operating below the flight levels observed in July 2019. This situation is particularly evident among most major carriers in North America, except for Southwest Airlines, which is operating 6% more flights this month compared to July 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In contrast, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines are all experiencing a decline of around 14.5% to 17.5% in terms of flights operated this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JetBlue and Air Canada are also facing setbacks, with 7% and 30.2% reductions, respectively, compared to July 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the flip side, Ryanair and IndiGo are leading in terms of growth, with both airlines operating flights at a level approximately 30% higher than in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
