Passenger traffic not only rebounded from the pandemic but also expected to have exceeded pre-pandemic levels, signaling a new era of growth. Asia-Pacific served an estimated 3.5 billion passengers or 3% increase over 2019, while the Middle East continued its upward trajectory, reaching an estimated 443 million passengers—a remarkable 9% growth over pre-pandemic levels.

Our ongoing response to the pandemic, of course, includes doing all we can to help and support our members through the crisis.
