evidence: The Indian aviation industry has crossed a mark of 4,00,000 domestic air passengers a day on Sunday for the first time since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. The airlines carried 4,07,975 passengers on 2,838 flights which amounts to about 95.5 per cent of pre-Covid-19 daily domestic air passenger traffic. According to the data of the Ministry of Civil Aviation, in the domestic traffic category, there were 7,99,957 airport footfalls, 5,672 aircraft movements, and 3,91,982 arriving passengers. [...] A recent report by ICRA also found that India's domestic air passenger traffic is estimated to have grown by around 59 per cent year-on-year (YoY) to 84 million in FY22, although it is still about 40 per cent lower as compared to the pre-pandemic level.
