Given the reason for the increase in the number of domestic passengers in November this year, the industry believes that social distancing, which was eased in the first phase in October, continued until mid-November, which had some influence. There is also an analysis that the result of gradual expansion of domestic routes by low-cost airlines (LCCs), which suffered from the suspension of routes in Japan and Southeast Asia, led to an increase in the number of domestic passengers last month. In fact, national airlines supplied 3.13 million seats for domestic flights in November last year, but 3.52 million seats last month.
However, the number of passengers is expected to drop again this month as the re-proliferation of Corona 19 is intensifying and the social distancing stage is raised. In order to save air demand, the non-landing international tourism flight product, which was launched in the middle of this month, seems to be canceled one after another. An official from the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs said, “If the social distancing stage is upgraded to 3 stages, there is a possibility that the non-landing international tourism flight product will be temporarily suspended.”
