The International Air Transport Association (IATA) this week predicted airlines would amass further losses in 2021 as they drop airfares as low as possible in an attempt to win back business. Forecasts predict the airline industry will lose NZ$153 billion in 2021. International passenger numbers are predicted to drop to 2.25 billion this year before rising to 3.38 billion in 2021, which will still be more than 25 percent below 2019's number.
