CAPA: 74% recovery in domestic Australia capacity by end-2020 - UPDATE

Based on a combination of analysis of government statements, airline projections and underlying demand, CAPA's Air Capacity Model projects a phased recovery in domestic air capacity in Australia through the remainder of 2020. CAPA projects domestic capacity to reach 55% of 2019 levels by the October school holidays and 74% by mid-December 2020.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison in May foreshadowed a return to intra-state travel under the Federal Government's three phase plan to ease coronavirus restrictions. The plan, designed to revive the domestic economy, leaves the timing for the re-establishment of travel to the states.

CAPA - Centre for Aviation (CAPA), the world's most trusted source of market intelligence for the aviation and travel industry, is pleased to announce the launch of its Air Capacity Model supported by OAG, developed to provide the aviation and travel industry with a robust and granular guide for future air capacity projection.
